When we put our patients on a gluten-free diet, they are often concerned about missing out on the taste and convenience of their favorite foods. One of the most common questions that my nutritionist and I hear is this: what can one eat that is gluten-free, dairy-free, quick, easy, and delicious for lunch? Have you […]

Per reader request, I’ve created a gluten-free version of a traditional tuna noodle casserole with zoodles and a dairy free sauce. It came out thick, creamy, and flavorful! I used Wild Planet brand tuna: Ingredients: (2) cans of Wild Planet tuna fish (2) zucchini’s made into zoodles with a vegetable spiralizer (1) small onion chopped (3) cloves of garlic finely […]
You asked for it… Here is my gluten-free version of Greek moussaka. I have to admit… I have never tried real moussaka before. I asked my readers for some of their favorite dishes they would like to see “paleo-ized” and a few requested moussaka. So I spent a couple days looking over Traditional Greek Moussaka recipes, […]
For some people cutting out pasta is a way to get carbohydrates out of their diet to stay healthy. For others who suffer from gluten intolerance or celiac disease — there’s no choice in the matter. That pasta has got to go. Luckily there is a winter squash that makes an amazing substitute, and is much healthier than […]
Sometimes you just want to eat with your hands. If you’re not a baker, and don’t have the budget for almond flour or Paleo breads, these vegetable roll ups and wrappers will do the job just fine. The goal is to transport food to your mouth using no forks and maybe no plate. A well-made wrap […]
How many times have you been at the supermarket meat counter and looking in the glass case at all of the beautiful sausages only to find out they’re not gluten-free? It’s more common than you might think. Even your favorite butcher uses casing that’s not gluten-free. As with most things, it’s much better to be […]
Let me start this post by saying that I have an issue with the common misconception that a paleo or primal diet is centered around meat. Every time I talk to someone about the way I eat, that is inevitably the first thing that comes out of their mouth. I go on to explain that […]
Do your friends and family think you’re crazy when it comes to what you eat? I know mine do, but the results that I’ve had speak for themselves. I’m healthier and fitter than I’ve been at any other time in my adult life (I’ll be 46 next month) and to be totally honest, I don’t […]
The Celiac Handbook website was created in 2004 by Chris Armstrong and has evolved into a portal for new (and old) ideas related to healthy and sustainable gluten-free living.
Celiac Handbook goes well beyond the latest cupcake recipe or even the most realistic tasting gluten-free sliced bread. The goal is to share information about minimally processed real food that helps people heal from what has usually been years of damage done by undiagnosed celiac disease.
