I would strongly recommend Chebe pizza (you can order the mixes at Open Original Shared Link (free shipping so it's cheaper than buying it in stores!). If you go to a manufacturers' site, such as Ener-G or Kinnikinnick (spelling?) they sell their products online. Then there are some sites that sell a combination, such as the gluten free mall (which Scott who runs this board also runs), as well as a collection of others. With the exception of Chebe mixes, I buy all of my specialty gluten-free food from the health food stores, Whole Foods, or Fairways, so I don't have great insight into that....

Oh, Foods by George makes a wonderful pizza (foodsbygeorge.com) --it's one of their newest items and comes already made and frozen. The negative is that it's about twice as expensive as Chebe, it can't be stored forever since it's already made, and it makes a pizza about half the size (you can get a normal-sized pizza pan for Chebe.

For bread, I feel that the only edible one and a phenomenal one at that is the one that Whole Foods makes in their gluten-free bakehouse. They have gluten-free products in Whole Foods stores in the southeast and most recently, the north east. You live in Kentucky, however, so that isn't YET an option. Months ago I would've recommended Ener-G or Kinnikinick (spelling again) but Whole Foods is ten times as good as either of the two...and after tasting this, it would be difficult to go back to the alternatives.

Open Original Shared Link

The pizza crusts come in single serve size as well as larger sizes. They are very good. Orders up to $200 are only $10 shipping, so order as much as you can to save. The tapioca white rice bread is great. The donuts are great. The chocolate chip muffins are really great, but very small and not super filling. Makes them a bit of an extravagance. Make space in your freezer if you order.

If you don't mind cooking it yourself. I've found the Arrowhead Mills pizza mix fairly decent. Its sticker then hell. So Ignore the directions about kneeding it. I make it once or more a week. I just throw it in my mixer, let it do the kneeding(Spray Pam on the mixer thing... to keep it from sticking, also in the mixing pot).

The I just throw it out onto a pizza pan, and push it around with baggies on my hands, sprayed again with Pam. This stuff is sticky... but it isn't that bad.

Then I just pour some continada pizza sauce, cheese and peperoni(or bacon, bacon pizza is so dang good! hehe... I like the grease... peperoni + bacon, not I am not talking about candian bacon... U.S> term that is. its called streaky bacon in UK :>)

Anyways, I got off topic. Arrowhead mills Pizza mix can be ordered from some online sources... I just buy it at Wild Oats. If you don't have them... here are a few online places.

Dang, I can' t find it on my online places. I know I saw it there like a week ago. hmm... its weird, its not even on Arrowhead Mills website... but I have a box right here...

Ach.... I meant to say it is sticky'er, not sticker.

I too love the gluten-free Whole Foods products, they are good but... I love this bread even more: Manna by Anna (google it) its a mix and it works best with a dough enhancer but when made it is soooo good. It doesn't crumble and it tastes great even without toasting.

I make mine in an old bread machine and it comes out just right each time on the regular bread cycle. My mom tried to make it in the oven and it didn't come out as well but... she is known for cutting corners and I wasn't there when she made it so I can't say which corners she cut but I'm going to bet she did (sorry mom!).

I've tried tons of gluten-free bread and Manna by Anna is still far and away the best one.

Our favorite bread mix is Gluten Free Pantry's Favorite Sandwich Bread Mix. The ones you make at home are SO MUCH BETTER! This one is really easy! I make it every week for my 2 year old celiac daughter.

I buy almost all her food online because we are in a small town. I always use

www.glutensoultions.com

They have a big variety and fast shipping.

Good luck!

Thanks for all the good sites to buy gluten free food. I really wish Whole Foods was online though. That seems to be the only place we can get good bread. We don't use it for sandwiches though since it isn't that great but makes awesome garlic or cheese toast.

I can't buy the pre-mixes for bread or pizza but have found a couple recipes on-line that work great.

For the pizzas, I just make about 4 crusts, prebake and then freeze. When we need a pizza, then I top it.

It's at www.savorypalate.com

The bread recipe I have been using and she loves the best actually has "bread holes". It seems to work best in mini-loaf pans or muffin tins. But it actually rises and is soft when it is done. Yesterday I made her a hamburger bun by making a mold out of tin foil. She couldn't believe I could do that! Hasn't had a "bun" in 7 months.

The recipe is the sorghum bread at www.twinvalleymills.com

I am sure that you could sub another heavy flour, though.

We have now discovered Amy's gluten free pizza & it is pretty good. We dress it up a bit though with extra cheese & pepperoni.

I hate to sound like a broken record but I agree Foods by George Pizza is good. But I just ate my pizza I ordered from Everybody eats and it was terrific. I did dress it up with my favorite things as I ordered only cheese which is cheaper as I figure I can put my own things on it.IF anyone is interested I do know of a place that will ship Everybody Eats stuff for a cheaper price than can be sold by them directly. Just pm me and I will supply the name.The crusty rolls & baguettes are to die for !!!!!!

Also again get the cookbook by Annalise Roberts as she has alot of favorites in it. It seems she has a hugh followering within this great group. And to boot she is very nice.

A wonderful bread mix is Anna's Mixes. She too is a wonderful person.

I don't make a dime from any of them. I just like to help others out when something good comes along...

I recently ordered a bunch of meals from Comfy Cuisine. They make pizzas plus pasta meals, so far everything I have tried is good. Instead of flour, they seem to use a lot of egg. Though the pizza doesn't taste like traditional pizza, it does hit the spot and I don't even mind the leftovers for lunch the next day.

That's one I haven't heard from before. I'll be checking them out.

I have tried comfy cuisine and wasn't impressed at all. I had the eggplant parmesan which was fair but was watery. The other ones and the pizza we really disliked. I would not purchase them again. Glad to hear someone liked them...Their are four of us gluten-free and we all said the same thing but we ate them at different times so we we judged them it would be fair because we didn't know when the other one sampled them.

I would say spend your $$$$$ on something else......

Ordering Chebe bread... it only comes in large quantities. For example, the cinnamon roll up bread comes in a pack of 8 or something like that. Is it worth the 30 dollar price?

As far as prices for the gluten free food goes......I can honestly say that that is one place I don't worry about the cost. I think I would pay just about anything for my husband to have some good or atleast new gluten food to eat.

I haven't tried Chebe for cinnamon rolls, but I love the red bag for pizza, and also the bag for breadsticks. THAT is definitely worth the $30 price! I'd order more, actually....

      Celiac or Addison's complications? Can someone share their experience?

      By trents · Posted

      @KRipple, thank you for the lab results from your husband's celiac disease blood antibody testing. The lab result you share would seem to be the tTG-IGA (Tissue Transglutaminase IGA) and the test result is in excess of 10x normal. This is significant as there is an increasing tendency for physicians to grant a celiac disease diagnosis on the basis of antibody testing alone when the scores on that particular test exceed 10x normal. This trend started in the UK during the COVID pandemic when there was tremendous pressure on the medical system over there and it has spread to the USA. The tTG-IGA is the centerpiece of celiac disease blood antibody testing. All this to say that some doctors would grant a celiac disease diagnosis on your husband's bloodwork alone and not feel a need to go forward with an endoscopy with biopsy. This is something you and your husband might wish to take up with his physicians. In view of his many health issues it might be wise to avoid any further damage to his small bowel lining by the continuing consumption of gluten and also to allow healing of such to progress. The lining of the small bowel is the place where essentially all of our nutrition is absorbed. This is why celiac disease when it is not addressed with a gluten free diet for many years typically results in additional health problems that are tied to nutritional deficiencies. The millions and millions of tiny finger-like projections that make up the nutrient absorbing surface of the small bowel lining are worn down by the constant inflammation from gluten consumption. In celiac disease, the immune system has been tricked into labeling gluten as an invader. As these finger-like projections are worn down, the efficiency of nutrient absorption becomes more and more compromised. We call this villous atrophy.

      Celiac or Addison's complications? Can someone share their experience?

      By KRipple · Posted

      Thank you so much! And sorry for not responding sooner. I've been scouring the hospital records and can find nothing other than the following results (no lab info provided): Component Transglutaminase IgA   Normal Range: 0 - 15.0 U/mL >250.0 U/mL High   We live in Olympia, WA and I will be calling University of Washington Hospital - Roosevelt in Seattle first thing tomorrow. They seem to be the most knowledgeable about complex endocrine issues like APS 2 (and perhaps the dynamics of how APS 2 and Celiacs can affect each other). His diarrhea has not abated even without eating gluten, but that could be a presentation of either Celiac's or Addison's. So complicated. We don't have a date for endoscopy yet. I will let my husband know about resuming gluten.    Again, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with me!

      Hi Phosphone, did you ever figure out what elevated your DGP?  I am in the same boat.

      Scott makes a good point about the prednisone. It has a general suppressing effect on the immune system. Don't misunderstand me. In view of your husband's several autoimmune afflictions, it would seem to be an appropriate medication therapy but it will likely invalidate endoscopy/biopsy test results for celiac disease.
