Thanksgiving Recipes for Celiac Disease

-

Recently, my sister had some tests done to determine if she had celiac disease. She’s had some bouts of significant discomfort after eating many different types of food that primarily contain wheat. While it was determined she does not have celiac disease, my mother and I had already started to research how and what to cook and bake for someone with celiac disease (and when you start us on something about cooking or baking the rabbit hole will never end). Thus, this post idea was born. 

Here are a few Thanksgiving recipes we found. I have included the links above each listing.

**I do not own any of these recipes or their included photos**

My mother is arguably the queen of giving new life to leftovers. One of her favorite leftover meals is- can you guess? – leftover soup. My mother’s soup usually includes a barley or wheat-based pasta, but you can substitute for gluten free pasta (as this recipe does) or you could use rice (be sure it is rice in its natural form and is not a “pilaf”, with other spices, other sauces, etc.) (BeyondCeliac.com, 2021).

Both sides of my family have a stuffing. One has celery and chestnuts, and the other has bacon. Both are delicious, but neither are gluten free. This stuffing features a gluten-free bread with all the other fix ins of a classic stuffing (Abraham, 2021).

My mother makes some of the best pumpkin pie. It’s such a comfy dessert. This pumpkin pie features a gluten-free crust using Chex cereal and a dairy-free option (Roberts, 2019).

Are All Sugars Created Equal?

Are All Sugars Created Equal?  I think one of the most confusing nutrition topics for people is sugar. With so many conflicting stories out there, it’s difficult to separate the facts from the fiction. Not to mention, the types of sugars are endless. How do we know what’s best for our bodies? White or brown sugar? Cane or raw? Should we just go with Stevia instead? Is it even okay to consume artificial sweeteners? Should we avoid foods with high amounts of natural sugar in them? Each answer only seems to lead to another question!  Let’s start off with distinguishing the purpose of sugar in the first place. Do our bodies even need it? The short answer is yes! Sugars are carbohydrates (what we commonly call “carbs”), one of the three main macronutrients that our bodies need for fuel to function and survive. One of the major ways to categorize sugar is by separating the “natural” sugars from the “added” sugars. Natural sugars are, well, naturally found in foods. They give us the energy th

Do you struggle with pre and post exercise nutrition?

What should i eat before and after a workout? First things first…carbohydrates, proteins and fats are important for the body before  and after exercise. Exercising muscle preferentially uses carbohydrates from stored glycogen, but fats are also an important fuel source for energy production during exercise. Fats and carbohydrates are the two major fuel sources during exercise. Fats must be translocated and broken down from their storage form before they are used. Typically there is enough carbohydrate stored as muscle glycogen for exercise but as muscle glycogen stores decline, the skeletal muscle will then use some amino acids (basic components of all protein). More specifically, the amino acid leucine is used for energy.              It is important to consume an adequate amount of carbohydrates exercise to delay fatigue and minimize gastrointestinal distress. It is also important to consume enough fluids to prevent hypohydration. Now, lets talk about pre-exercise me
