Celiac Disease Support Group
Celiac disease is an auto-immune disorder of the digestive system that occurs in genetically-predisposed individuals. It is characterised by damage or flattening to all or part of the villi lining the small intestine, which interferes with the absorption of nutrients. This damage is caused by eating anything with gluten (gliadin), a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley...
The one thing I really miss having with the Celiac diet is a good Ruben Sandwich. Last night I made (for the first time)a loaf of bread using Bob's Red Mill GF Hearty Whole Grain Bread Mix. It is not the Rye you need for a Ruben...but I used it anyway. IMHO it made a very good Ruben sandwich....my husband even liked it. It makes a very hearty-deeply satisfying bread....my husband is usually a two sandwich man...this made a very filling sandwich and he only needed one sandwich to satisfy him.
It is dairy free, however the mix does contain Soy Lecithin for those of you who are soy intolerant.
Hubby wants me to try making a Pastrami and Swiss sandwich with it next.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I've had good results in baking with Bob's Red Mill bread mixes; the bread is delicious. Ener-G makes good rice and tapioca bread which is good for toast but is a little dry for sandwiches.
