That is really nice to be able to make breads for yourself and your bakery. Do you get a lot of customers that need gluten-free items? We have a new bakery in town that offers some gluten-free desserts but I have not dared to try any because I haven't talked with them yet to see if they take cross contamination into account, or use a lot of corn ingredient...

I've not seen Grainless Baker products yet. So would that mean no corn ingredient in them either? That would be wonderful. Do you get the products in stores or do you have to order them?

Sounds like it's been a long, rough road for you. I too try not to complain, but really, this is such a process to learn. And the pain and discomfort was also (and is) very hard to deal with on a day to day basis. It's no picnic, that's for sure. But I just keep working hard to stay positive. But some days really, I could just cry. This past winter everything...

That sounds great. I still have two stores in town to check, but if they don't have it, I did find it on amazon to order. Does fresh or cooked garlic bother you? I am not even sure at the moment if garlic bothers me, so maybe will try the amino or the teriyaki first. Although once my stomach starts feeling better long term, I hope I can have garlic. ...

That sounds really rough having so many sensitivities. Does it get stressful or do you eventually get a routine going where it feels "normal" cooking and eating like that? It all sounds overwhelming some days to me. I had started having better stomach days and that got me feeling like I had really been figuring things out. But the past few weeks it seems...

Thanks for that info. I need to check out more local stores. I heard too, to look at the unit price (on the orange labels) in stores to see what is actually cheaper. Not sure if that is true. Sometimes they don't show the orange label though.

Thanks for your help, Ennis and kareng. I did worry about CC in the deli. I have them planned for Sunday with potato salad and maybe I'll go get some prepackaged ones for myself. That is good to know that most US ones don't have gluten. The man at the deli said pretty much they all were on the gluten free list. At that store they also will cut you any...
-
Oh, and yes, we love quiche, and now that I can't have gluten I just don't use a crust. But we do different ingredients in them. My most recent favorite is putting sliced radish, some feta, and dill (the weed, not the seed). Yum! Then other ones like spinach and feta, or ham and cheese, hubby likes onion in pretty much everything, although I've been going...
-
Thanks for suggesting the coconut secret sauces. Do you know if there is any corn product or soy in them? Tomato sauce on scrambled eggs sounds really good. I love anything tomato. Another way I like eggs is scrambling them with crumbled feta cheese in it. And my husband makes good omelettes with whatever leftover meat or veggies we have...
-
That soup sounds really good. I do love eggs and omelettes. Just looking for different ideas. Has anyone had issues with cholesterol going gluten-free? I had been watching out for that before all this, but now giving up gluten, I've been eating a lot of cheese, sausage, eggs, etc. Although I heard eggs got a bad rap as far as cholesterol in the past...

Hi everyone. What brand hot dogs do you all eat? I looked up online and saw a few brands that seem to repeatedly be mentioned as gluten-free. At my grocery store this morning, they had a list of gluten free items in their deli, and I got Schonlands hot dogs (I think that's how they spell it). Has anyone had those, and if so, did you feel okay? I'm not...

Venison stew - oh, I hope my husband gets another deer this year. Last year was his first. We enjoyed it a lot, but I didn't have any stew recipes for it. But I should look some up. I really do need to try and get some stuff in the freezer. That sounds like it'd help a lot when you end up with a very busy day, or a day not feeling well, and want...

All sounds yummy! Chicken fajita - I need to plan that for next week. I am going to try making some flat tortillas with white rice flour. Should be interesting. I love beans, but my dr said to not eat much yet because of the fiber, I guess. But I am hoping as my stomach heals I can eat beans. I love them in soups, sides, even chip peas in salads.
-
We had more heat and humidity than usual too. Just yesterday it started drying out and getting cooler. I hope it stays now. I have photosensitivity, and summer is rough. I love fall. And the cozy foods are so nice too. I am thinking most of the soups I usually make should be pretty safe for me. So thankful for what we can still eat that is tasty.
-
That is good advice. I was thinking if I can start feeling a little better, cook some big batches of things and freeze portions. That is what I really need. Last night I didn't feel well at all, so the family ordered out and I had eggs. I like eggs, but sadly, I have had so much I am starting to get sick of them. I need to get soups and chicken and meats...
-
Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. Bananas and eggs have been something I've had a lot. They've been really mild and gentle on my stomach as it's been healing . Although I read to not eat green bananas, which is no problem because I don't like them unless they are ripe anyway. I guess the greener ones are more harsh on the stomach, apparently. And potatoes...

White Rice vs Brown Rice and Rice Bran?
LilyR replied to LilyR's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I searched some more online and found one site that mentioned some people apparently can handle white rice, but not brown, or in particular, rice bran which was said to have more fiber. So I wonder if that was it? I made a homemade tomato sauce which I put on the pasta, which I've had before (on chicken) and didn't seem to bother me, but maybe I will have... -
Thanks for the info. Wow, can eating become confusing. It's feeling stressful right about now.
-
I am not sure if this is the right area to post this? I am trying to make my grocery list, and trying to think of some different, but easy meal ideas. I was wondering what some of your go-to meal ideas are? The ones you tend to make every week. Especially meals with no gluten, corn ingredients, or oats. So far I do a lot of chicken and potatoes and...

Gluten Free/Grain Free Chocoalte Mug Cake
LilyR replied to Ennis-TX's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
This sounds really good and I have a bag of ground almond. Thanks for sharing this. I have to go jot this recipe down. I am craving a sweet. I have a little of that canned whipped cream in the fridge that I am pretty sure is gluten free. -
I have been eating white rice and rice cakes with no problems (yay! so excited over foods that are safe). But last night I had some noodles. The ingredients are brown rice and rice bran. I was pretty excited because they actually tasted good too. But I started having problems right after dinner. I can't think of anything else I had yesterday that should...
-
I was wondering, for those of you who can't eat gluten, or corn, oats, or any grains at al and are very sensitive maybe even to any other ingredientsl, what are some of your favorite store products? I am trying so hard to get things right. I was doing better for a while, but now seem to be making mistakes here and there. I had one brand of instant mashed...
-
If you eat something that bothers you, something maybe you didn't even know would bother you (could have had a corn ingredient in it, or some sort of additive), how long before you start feeling discomfort? Would it be possible to have something in the morning, but not have it start bothering you until right after dinner? I was starting to feel a...
-
Thanks for the links. I just read your blog. I could relate to some of that. Stress - yes! This whole thing flared up last winter when I was going through a lot of stress. I already had undiagnosed health issues for decades. But the digestive issues all happened this past winter. And one of the dr's mentioned that if I was having trouble with gluten...

I just popped in to the Puritan Pride website and I searched Gluten-free and you can actually narrow your search to that, and see all the gluten-free supplements they have. And prices do look good too. Although I haven't checked out the shipping fees yet.
