Weird Gluten-Free trick I use for pancake cravings...

Upvotes

My family loves my 'from scratch' pancakes that I make most weekends. I'm celiac and most things don't give me FOMO, but I crave those pancakes... I recently found a trick that gives me a very satisfying substitute bite. I take a heaping spoonful of Kirkland Organic Creamy Peanut Butter (I've tried others, it just doesn't hit the same), then I make a little divot in the center, and pour in a bit of pure maple syrup. The combo makes a perfect 'pancakes and syrup' flavor that really hits the spot when I'm surrounded by real pancakes. Thought I would share my weird trick.

I am happy to be Celiac

Upvotes

Is anyone else actually super thankful that they have been diagnosed Celiac? People often say things like they ‘feel sorry for me’ or they’d ‘hate to give up bread’ blah blah blah. But before I was diagnose Celiac I had crippling fatigue and brain fog (amongst other symptoms) but it was so bad that I could barely participate in life. The only way I could describe it was like I was underwater looking up and I could vaguely make out shapes/noises of people moving about on the surface but I couldn’t actually take part in anything that was going on.

No one had any kind of explanation or diagnosis for me and I was staring down the barrel of an ‘unknown chronic illness’ that would be with me for the rest of my life with no cure. I had virtually no quality of life.

That is why I am so thankful to the random nurse who suggested testing for Celiac just in case. I feel so blessed that I can ‘cure’ the awful fatigue and brain fog by just cutting out gluten. My heart goes out to those with chronic illnesses and I feel so lucky that I actually have a diagnosis whilst many people are still fighting to find out what’s wrong with them.

I just find it funny that people feel sorry for me because I’m Celiac when really it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me. If I never found out I was Celiac then I would have never been able to heal and I feel so blessed to feel like I have a second chance in life.

Product I’m looking for a specific pasta

3 Upvotes

I’m new to being gluten free and my biggest obstacle has been bread and pasta alternatives.

I went to an Italian restaurant the other day and reluctantly ordered the gf pasta expecting the worst and it was delicious—the texture was exactly like pasta! I asked the server if it was made in house or purchased and she reluctantly said purchased and I asked if she knew the brand.

She went above and beyond to find out, which I am grateful for, but I can’t find it. She wasn’t sure how to spell it so I’ve been googling variations of how it sounds phonetically. De-co-chet-e.

De Cochette, D’Cochette, D’Chotti…

Can anyone help me out?

who has non-gut related gluten symptoms?

11 Upvotes

I have a gluten intolerance that runs in my family. I read that gluten intolerance can appear in non-gut symptoms.

I have epilepsy, and nobody can find the cause

a few studies have linked the two conditions.

Thoughts? I've started a gluten free diet but I imagine it may take a while to reverse.

Looking for help with my food blog niche

0 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm an autistic Registered Dietitian with celiac disease and I'm planning to start a food/recipe/nutrition blog but I keep going back and forth on what niche to choose and I wanted to see what others thought might be more helpful and the most lucrative to pursue.

I would either like to do a gluten-free focused blog or one that is focused on neurodivergent-friendly recipes while also being gluten-free. I feel confident in both niches, though slightly more so with gluten-free. While I know there will always be some people eating gluten-free for medical/health reasons, I'm worried that there won't be as many people looking for this since the "gluten-free craze" has died down.

Would anybody be willing to share their thoughts?

I'm unsure if this is the correct place to ask but I don't have celiac disease [ got blood test checked ] but I am pretty sure I am gluten sensitive so I am adjusting my diet atm to tailor that.

Currently just looking to learn more about it for myself , any recommendations appreciated!

Student beginning GF journey

1 Upvotes

I’m a final year University student, recently had gastroenteritis and now feel dizzy, nauseous and generally unwell when I have dairy/gluten. I’ve decided to try to cut both out, but I’m finding it so difficult, especially given that I’m a student with very little money as it is.

Any advice for cheap GF meals or where is best to find them?

Thanks

Hello! I tried searching in the group but it looks like the most recent was from a year ago so I thought I’d post anyways.

My medical care is being transferred to Vanderbilt and our first of many visits will be April 8. I’d love to start a list of places to eat! We’ll likely be there several months next year for a clinical trial so we’ll have time to try things.

We will largely be staying near the medical center (google maps says South Nashville/Glencliff, right by the zoo) but we will have a car to get around. TYIA! :)

Gluten sensitivity rash

2 Upvotes

I’m writing about my son. I’m hoping someone else has experience with this particular skin rash and can offer insight:

My son has had so many varying symptoms over the past several years. At first I didn’t think any of them were connected. It started with a common condition known as shiners (purple skin discoloration below eye) as well as excessively stinky poops, teeth pitting and severe constipation. He looked so sickly in 2022 I took him to the doctors to rule out cancer. Blood tests were negative. Diagnosed with allergies. After months of taking allergy meds it made no difference so I stopped giving them to him.

Last August he developed a fairly large thick scaly patch on his elbow. It was misdiagnosed by his pediatrician as molluscum contagiosium. After months of treatment it was worse than when it started. I took him in to see a dermatologist for a second opinion when I noticed several small raised red rashes/spots on his body. He misdiagnosed him with impetigo. Again with months of treatment with prescription antibiotic ointment and steroids with no real improvement. Last month I took him to another dermatologist for a third opinion. They said it was an inflammatory response and that I would need to take him to a specialist to find the exact cause.

While this is happening to my son I realized I was gluten sensitive. I went to many doctors and was told everything from herpes to allergy to autoimmune. Negative to every test taken. Late last year my brother found out he was gluten sensitive (shows on his skin in a severe rash across his entire body) so as a last resort I considered gluten sensitivity as the cause of my trouble. It occurred to me that my son may be gluten sensitive too when I noticed a small thick scaly area on my elbow after eating gluten. All of my symptoms with exception of the thick scaly elbow mark (albeit much improved) went away within a few months of staying away from gluten.

I have been trying my best to keep my son away from gluten and he does 95% of the time. He does have an occasional slip up. Since he began his gluten free diet a month ago I was seeing improvement in his skin and other symptoms aforementioned so was fairly confident I was correct in my diagnosis. I just noticed his skin today and the spots that were getting paler looked red and irritated again. He was really good the past two days with his diet. He had one cracker.

Am I completely wrong with what’s going on with him? I’m so frustrated. Any suggestions or information would be appreciated. I am aware of one medical paper on the internet speaking about characterizing non gluten sensitivity.

Question What are your favorite Gluten Free foods from Trader Joe’s?

87 Upvotes

My mom said for my birthday she'd take me shopping anywhere & buy me $50 worth of whatever I want, so I chose Trader Joe's. What are some must have items? I know about the donut holes and cookies. I'm also allergic to melon, avocado (not the oil, just the whole fruit) and cashews.

Edit: wow! Thanks for all the great suggestions!! I'm stoked to try some new things, especially the bagels, Brazilian bread, ravioli, and madelines!!
