    That sounds good, thanks!

    Thanks Sylvia! I checked out "Julia and Jaques Cooking at Home" DVD series from the library. You should see what they do with a turkey! Abbreviated version, cut the legs off, cut the wishbone out of the breast, cut the wing tips off, stuff the legs with corn bread stuffing and seal with aluminum foil, stick the turkey breast on top of the stuffing...

    I'd push for more testing. The blood tests are unreliable at best. I didn't pursue diagnosis a few years ago and regret it.

    Hi Sylvia, I had a disastrous attempt with turkey tetrazzini several years ago, before going gluten-free. But I've always enjoyed your recipes and if you have one that has passed your tests, I'd love to see you post it. xxx

    Thanks for your suggestions. Have you tried Chebe for pizza crusts yet?

    Sorry KarenG, nothing personal, I love the bitts out of you, but frankly, I think your son has better taste. (Triple decker sorry A LOT! )

    Julie, I reckon we're birds of a feather. Thank's for warning me about R Ray's bad pizza recipe!

    That sounds good! Do you mind shipping Mom down here until I survive my leftover turkey crisis?

    For the moment, quinoa and whole corn. I seem to be tolerating corn chips, corn starch, blah blah blah ok, but if I roast an ear of corn or stick whole kernal corn in something, my digestive system turns gonzo. Thanks, Lisa.

    I hear ya! This is the first year I've eaten turkey since I scored a "4" on turkey with allergy testing a few years ago. Turkey was 59 cents a pound the the grocery store that normally rips you off, so we bought 2 small ones. I haven't noticed any allergic reactions, but I basically don't like turkey, which makes leftovers problematic. Well, I have...

    I find coloring very therepeutic. I tried knitting after I read a study that women achieve about the same biorythmic patterns from knitting as they do from Yoga (sorry, monitors, I can't attribute the source). Knitting exasperated me. I kept dropping stitches. And once the yarn was cut in the middle of a skein! (Kind of like breaking a guitar sting...

    I'm not a big fan of left overs, so I froze most of what was left over from Thanksgiving. According to what I've read, you can only freeze the left overs for a month, and that's going to be appoximately when we do our akkkkk CHRISTMAS turkey. I made tostados with refried black beans tonight, have done turkey hash. I do tend to pinch a penny, but...

    Sorry Tarnalb Sorry, that doesn't sound like very much fun! And the same people that would complain if you didn't attend the party would gossip that you just brought apple juice and ate your own chips, Better to not go at all, in MHO, with or without prior explanation.

    Take a hot soak in the tub, drink lots of liquids (especially peppermint tea), listen to music, read, play stupid computer games, exercise, wish I could play banjo. Sometimes I color designs with colored pencils or research weird things on a search engine, like how to make hand sewn curtains. I have little intenton of making curtains, but it was amazing...

    Hi Googles, Sorry that your co-workers are giving you a big dish of guilt pie for the holidays. You could take the easy way out and make Texas Caviar if you can tolerate legumes and night shades. (PM me if you don't find a good recipe in your budget.) You could opt out, I had a co-worker who didn't believe in holidays, and she didn't bring anything...

    When my GI system goes haywire, I sometimes go on a clear liquid diet for 24 hours, so I'll have peppermint or other herbal tea, home made or purchased organic chicken or vegetable broth (watch the labels if purchased), ginger ale, and lots of water. The next day I introduce white rice and either home made apple sauce or peeled, sliced apples, green tea...

    I've never been zapped by a waxed rutabega. I live in the deep south, so they're all waxed by the time they arrive here.

    Hi saved, I had wonky liver enzyme levels on basic blood tests for several months. And fatigue, which is not uncommon with celiac disease. And bruising, but bruising could be attributed to malabsorbtion. Ultimately, I was diagnosed with Systemic and Discoid Lupus. I am not, repeat not, suggesting that you could have Lupus. But here is a reputable...

    It might help to get some really tasty snacks that you wouldn't normally buy because of the expense. Like hint to everyone who buys you holiday gifts that you really love gluten free cashews or dark chocolates or whatever you really love. And Chebe bread is pretty easy to make. You can pat circles of dough down pretty thin, bake and freeze them. When...

    I packed my lunch for ever, some of these ideas may appeal to you for your dinner. Chopped romaine lettuce with tuna, ham, egg salad. " " " " chopped hearts of palm, black olives, sunflower seeds & vinagrette. " " " " sliced cooked potatoes, green beans, hard boiled eggs & vinagrette. " " " " sliced...

    Julia Child's "The Way to Cook" gives a bang up gluten-free recipe for making a creamed vegetable soup. I'll post it if you're interested, it just uses rice, water or stock, onions and a steamed or braised vegetable that you want to make creamed soup of. You have to have a blender of stick blender, dirty 2 pans and devote about an hour. but only intermittently...

    My cornbread stuffing with sausage was the worst part of our meal this year. I made a bang up gravy though, and have struggled with gravy in the past. I always add too much stock (gummy gunk) or not enough (brick hard, even with gravy). If anyone has a good ratio of liquid to dry gluten-free bread and sauteed veggies, please post.

    Good point, DC. I worked for a Mich. pie company in the 70's. One of our biggest customers was Sysco. Mrs. Smith Pies bought us out and the federal court declared it would be illegal, creating an oligoply. Swear to God. Happy thanksgiving to all, cheerios. (Oops, Rice Chex!)

    Open Original Shared Link Oops, here's the cornbread recipe.
  25. Marilyn R
    Here's a recipe I've used a few times for cornbread and am using for my cornbread stuffing tommorrow. It has been bang up on it's own and I think it will be great in thi stuffing. For the chicken stock that goes in dressing, I make my own or buy a low sodium organic store brand after carefully reading the label each time. (Put my peepers on for that...
