Aims, the best gluten-free pasta I've had (and I've had quite a few) is DeBoles' *corn* pasta. (This is important, because DeBoles also makes a quinoa pasta and a rice pasta.) Their corn pasta has a great texture, and the taste is pretty dang good. Most rice pasta is insanely mooshy and gluey.
EXCEPT...Tinkyada's rice lasagna noodles (specifically the lasagna) are awesome and you can make crockpot lasagna with them. The kind where you don't need to pre-cook the noodles.
As for bread, the only one that's worth eating is Udi's. All other gluten-free bread is dense and there's no point to even trying to make a sandwich out of it. Udi's makes bagels too, halle-fricking-lujah.
The lady over at A Year of Slow Cooking does gluten free, and lists a bunch of her favorite foods in various recipes.
Also check out Gluten-Free on a Shoestring. Gluten-free without having to sell a kidney to buy gluten-free products.
Thank you so much! I'm trying to see if going (mostly) gluten free will help with Em's ADHD stuff. She's mostly doing great through meds, and we avoid sugar and red-dye (mostly due to her not liking candy or anything but milk and water), but I'd like to try phasing out gluten.
So, we went to our first ultrasound appointment today, and everything looks fine. Yay! And the baby looks like a baby! Still too early to tell anything about sex, but it started kicking while we were watching, which was just the most satisfying thing.
I somehow made it through 4 hours at work today. 3 more days of this and I get tested for mono.
I will be unhappy if it's mono, as I haven't swapped spit with anyone other than Mal and the DH, and neither of them have it.
Aims, if you like to bake (and have time to do so), you can make damn near anything with Pamela's Baking Mix, including scones.
t edit
Not, of course, what would be considered "proper" British scones, but they are scone-like. They are not muffin-y and sweet.
And let me reiterate that the crock-pot lasagna (which is from the Year of Slow Cooking site: [link] is FUCKING AWESOME.
My understanding is that you can make it with regular lasagna noodles also, for any gluten-y people reading this who are envious.
Lasagna is Joe's most very favorite dish. To make it more often than anually would probably make me even more awesome than I already am.
