GF, CF, Soy free breakfast ideas?

[caseygirl]

Hey all -

Any ideas on gluten free, casein free, and soy free breakfasts? I used to love eating van's gluten free waffles but I know they are made with soy. I'm not a huge eggs in the morning fan (funny, but I like eggs, just not in the morning).....any GF waffles made without dairy and soy? Or other ideas? I feel like rice cakes aren't very filling. I eat breakfast at about 8am and don't have lunch until 1pm...so I'd like to eat something that is kinda filling. I have a stupid question....does rice milk contain casein? Sorry, I know I should probably know that.

I went to see a new GP the other day and she definitely doesn't subscribe to the NCGS theory. It was a little frustrating and I left feeling a little like a hypochondriac (or at least feeling as if she felt I was). She had all my records on the computer and turned the computer screen so I could read with her all my "normal" findings. I told her that I'm feeling much better now that I'm gluten free, even though I KNOW I don't have celiac. Just b/c I don't have celiac doesn't mean I don't have a problem digesting gluten!!!!!!!! I don't think she (and most doctors) understand how much my symptoms were affecting my life before going GF. I wanted to tell her about my enterolab results but I was afraid she'd just laugh at me. Ugh, so frustrating. Sorry for the vent!

Smoothies made with fruit, your favorite protein powder (hemp seed for me), alternative milk if you like, ice and probiotic powder;

Squashbread Tea Cake Easy on the tummy and fills you up and holds you;

Applegate Bacon pre-cooked and put in a Chebe bread wrap with some sliced turkey.

I also think that eggs in the morning are yucky, but fine any other time of day!

Here is a bread wrap recipe that contains none of those ingredients. http://forums.glutenfree.com/topic6060.html

sandwich bread http://forums.glutenfree.com/topic6686.html this can be made with rice milk, or another nut milk, or even the Van's milk

banana bread ( you can do a pumpkin bread, zucchini bread or a carrot bread using this recipe, just use the same measurement for the bananas)

waffles http://forums.glutenfree.com/topic4465.html I know that it calls for butter and for milk, but you could put oil or palm shortening for the butter and use your milk in combination with coconut milk.


Many of the recipes that we have here will be okay to just change your milk for the milk called for in the recipe. You can also use the coconut milk and skip some of the added fats. (coconut milk is sort of oily)

For the shortening call for, there is a spectrum butter.........I am not sure if it is soy based or not. There is palm shortening and I think it is made by spectrum, but you could probably do a google search for soy free shortening.

If you like oatmeal, you can get GF oats from Bob's Red mill or from Laura's (I think it is Cream estates.)

http://forums.glutenfree.com/topic4450.html These are mock raisin bran muffins that can be frozen and used for breakfast. Just sub your milk.

I use either coke or root beer that is corn free as the sub for soy sauce when I am stir frying at our home. MrP doesn't do well with the soy sauces.

I have seen some rice cheese in the diary case at the health food store, but I did not examine it to make sure it was soy free.

Sadly, you will have to make most of your foods from scratch to meet your dietary needs.

If I can think of any other subs, I will be glad to share them with you. If you have any questions about a recipe, I can try to help you out. I have baked items for those dietary needs before.

thank you for all the replies and ideas!!! i will be going to whole foods tomorrow and am going to buy things so I can make some of the ideas you listed. i'm excited!!

and i never even thought about fruit smoothies...that is a really good idea. do you just use a blender for that or is there a smoothie maker that you suggest?

[ostrich]

Most people I know use a blender. But you certainly can buy smoothie makers at places like Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, Walmart, etc.

I use a blender - works best when you add the ice on top.

We make big batches of waffles and freeze them individually. Then we pop them in the toaster at breakfast. They are really yummy!

...and here I was going to suggest cream of buckwheat. How boring am I?!
Though it is quite tasty with some brown sugar, cinnamon, crasins and a titch of milk. mmmm.
