Soup?

I'm not having very much luck with Gluten free soups. I tried the "Imagine" soup in the resealable bottles. Most of them are terrible. The only one I liked was the butternut squash.

Anyone know of some soups that actually have some flavor to them??

I love both the Garden Tomato and Creamy Tomato Imagine soups. It's at least what I remember Campell's being like.

I'm currently eating some Gluten Free Cafe chicken noodle soup (woke up with the start of a cold this morning) and it's not bad (mind you, I always add my own pepper and sometimes hot sauce to most soups). I do not know how they kept the rice noodles from turning to mush, but they somehow did.

Soup is also one of the easiest things to make, and to make gluten-free. Make sure any broth or boullion is gluten-free (I love Kitchen Basics broths).

Thai noodle soup bowls are another good option (check the ingredients!) if you have access to near-boiling hot water to steep the noodles in. I always have a couple of those stashed around at work for "emergency" lunches. That and some canned tuna are very good in a pinch.

I like Amy's Organic soups, and some of them are gluten-free. They were about the only ones I could find when I was just avoiding wheat and corn that had at least 2 or 3 flavors that met those requirements. I just looked at a can of Tuscan bean & rice soup and it does indeed say gluten-free, also.

I love the Progresso soups Kareng mentioned. It was my favorite brand before I went gluten-free.

I make my own always have, I can control the sodium that way. If you have the time you can whip up a pot or two on the weekend and freeze individual servings. Just had minestrone for lunch today. I've always used the tiny shells for pasta when I needed pasta. Try the corn pasta (if you can have corn)they hold up better then rice.

Brittany, while there are some soups that are okay, the absolute best ones are those you make yourself. Do you have a crockpot? If so, you could cut up ingredients the night before, stick them in the fridge and then put them in a crockpot in the morning and when you get home, you'll have a delicious gluten-free soup ready for you. And depending on what you put in it, many freeze extremely well. There's nothing like a stash in the freezer for those days you absolutely don't feel like cooking.

I am also interested in making some homemade gluten-free, df, corn free, soy free soups. Do you have any recommendations or recipes of soups that you have made? I don't currently own a crock pot, so I've never made any soups in a crock pot, but I am going to buy one. Any homemade recipes would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! :D

Thanks everyone! I will have to check out the progresso ones!! and Make my own!

We make our own as well. Stock is always on hand and that makes it REALLY easy to whip up a variety of soups at the drop of a hat.

I have been eating Campbell's Chunky Soup Chicken and Sausage Gumbo. Its one of the few that are gluten free in that line. They also have Ham and Split Pea.

Emily30 Newbie

progressos are good. I am going to have to check out the Campbells Chunky soup someone mentioned-that sounds good!

Bubba's Mom Enthusiast

Be aware that Campbell's in Canada has gluten free versions of some soups. In the US they don't. Read the labels!

I love making chicken soup, although I am in search of a good soup noodle. When I wasn't feeling well a few weeks ago I dragged my husband to the store to hunt decent soup with me. I picked up a couple of cans of Wolfgang Puck soup, and while I don't remember which ones they were I can say they were delicious. If I remember correctly all of the soups are gluten free and organic. If you do make your own chicken soup I highly recommend using tarragon, it gives an amazing flavor that just can't be beat.

I like the Schar's Tagliatelle (sp?) noodles for noodle soup. They are thin and slurpy.

I like bean thread for soup noodles.

A quick 1/2 hour soup and freezes well. I use corn pasta and cook very al dente, otherwise it will mushup when you reheat.

Spinach, Celery, Sausage and Pasta Soup

16 oz sausage links ( I use chicken sausage)

6 Cups chicken stock (Kitchen Basics gluten-free) I use low sodium

2 - 14 oz diced tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano

2 - Cups thinly sliced celery include leaves

2 grated carrots

Salt & Pepper to taste

10-12 oz bag baby spinach

Optional:

grated Parmesan Reggiano Cheese

Chiffonade Basil

Heat 1 T olive oil in soup pot over medium heat. Remove casings from sausage and add to pot, stirring to crumble for 10 minutes, add celery and saute for 2 - 3 minutes.

Add stock, tomatoes, grated carrots S & P to taste and bring to simmer, add pasta cook till pasta is al dente. Remove from heat and add spinach till wilted. Serve with cheese and basil if desired.

This freezes well and you'd never know it had been frozen.

I've been using canned Goya for my Minestrone and have had no episodes, I use to make many other soups with dried bagged beans but have not done so because I'm afraid to use the bagged beans. If anyone has found dried gluten-free beans that work for them please share. I miss my 16 bean soup as well as the Black Bean Soup.

Nothing like a great hot soup on a cold winter day.

      After my 3 year old daughter's diagnosis, we all got tested. My 5 year old son also came back positive with number 12x the upper limit.  We will confirm with another tTG and the other 2 tests in the panel.  He has zero symptoms that I have noticed. Maybe occasionally vomiting. He does have asthma. He's kind of an a**hole sometimes but also he's 5. He has SO much energy. Like miles and miles of biking, running, gymnastics. Never stops. Eats great, normal growth. It was comparing my daughter to him that made me push to figure out what was wrong with her!  Is it possible for a tTG test to just be totally wrong?

      I'm heading to the UK for a vacation the end of this month on a tour with Road Scholar. I haven't been out of the US since my diagnosis so I'm a little concerned about exposure to gluten during my travels. Most of our meals are provided by the tour. Either the hotels we are staying at, or places we will visit. Road Scholar is aware of my dietary needs as well. Any helpful hints about navigating the restaurants in England is greatly appreciated. Also are there any medications out there to help mitigate the effects of exposure to gluten? Thanks in advance.

      Were the two tests done by the same lab? Do the tests have the same normal ranges?  Each test manufacturer uses their own system of units when reporting results. Have your results gone down at all since diagnosis?  Are you sure you’re gluten free? Do you eat at restaurants? I would recommend that you take a really good look at your gluten free diet. It took six years for me to get all my results down to the normal range (I was originally positive for TTG IgA, TTG IgG, DGP IgA, DGP IgG and EMA). I started just avoiding wheat, rye and barley.  My results came down but one was still high.  Then I made sure any processed foods were labeled gluten free.  My results came down more but one was stubbornly positive.  Then I would only eat processed foods if certified gluten free or from a manufacturer with an excellent reputation among those with celiac disease.  All my results were finally normal. My results went back up a little when I started doing a lot of baking with a reputable but not certified gluten free flour.  When I switched to certified gluten free flour my results went back down to normal.

      As a more generalized response to your question, I've been contacting Costco customer service for several Kirkland products because they are either unlabeled or contain the generic warning label about being packaged in a facility that handles all major food allergens. Each time I ask, my question is assigned to a specific person who researches it and emails me an actionable response that says, more or less, "no risk", "possible risk", or "definite risk". All of the answers have the caveat in the example below. Also, they recommend that you buy the product, submit the question ***with the lot # of your purchase*,** and then return it if you don't like the risk profile. This is because some products are made at different facilities with different risk profiles. Here is an example of a recent email response: "This is [name] with the Costco Member Service Resolutions Team. I am happy to let you know we got a reply back from our Kirkland Signature team. Here is their response: This item is gluten free. This information reflects the sender's knowledge on the date the information is being provided. Ingredients and processes are subject to change without notice. I hope this satisfies your inquiry about  [product name and stock #]. If you have a follow up question for me about this item please don’t hesitate to ask. I am happy to help! If I do not hear back from you within 48 hours I will consider this case closed. " Like pretty much every food source, you have to decide who you trust and then live with that. I tend to trust these responses because a person investigates it, their answers are detailed (not generic), and also because sometimes they say "nah, don't eat it". Hope this helps.

      There are thirteen essential vitamins:  eight B vitamins, four fat soluble vitamins, and Vitamin C.  They all work together.   If you are deficient in one, you are probably low in the other dozen.  Celiac Disease affects the absorption of all the vitamins, and the dozen or so essential minerals, as well.  Cobalamine Vitamin B12, needs Folate B9 and Pyridoxine B6 to function properly.  Pyridoxine B6 needs Riboflavin B2.  Vitamin C is needed to interact with B12 as well.  Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3 are also needed to provide the energy for these vitamins to function properly.  If one is also low in Folate and Pyridoxine, B12 Cobalamine is not going to be able to function properly and the body doesn't bother to absorb it.   Vitamin D is safe even in high doses.  Vitamin D3 should be supplemented.  Vitamin D2 is not as well utilized because it's synthetic, not a form the body can utilize easily.  Vitamin D must be activated by Thiamine Vitamin B1.  Insufficient Thiamine B1 will make one feel "dopey".  Thiamine is needed for brain function.  The brain uses as much energy just thinking as your muscles do while running a marathon.   Multivitamins do not contain sufficient amounts of essential vitamins to correct nutritional deficiencies.  Supplementing with ALL eight B vitamins, extra Thiamine (don't use the form thiamine mononitrate because it's not absorbed nor utilized well), Vitamin C and the four fat soluble vitamins will be more beneficial than just supplementing one or two vitamins by themselves. With sufficient amounts of essential vitamins, the immune system gets regulated and becomes less reactive to other things like pollen, molds and animal dander.  Sleep apnea is frequently found in Thiamine insufficiency.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted if not needed.  The B vitamins all work together.  Supplement them together.
