Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Do you all use gluten-free oats? My kids love oatmeal and we've just been buying oats at the grocery store. Well, I know adults with wheat allergies who have mentioned they can't eat those oats. Perhaps that is the cause of the persistent light rash on my son's cheeks. Anyway, I thought I'd check out gluten-free oats, but I'm wondering if anyone knows a good place to buy them. If I got them, I'd do it in bulk. But they're pricey! Would we be better off just switching to other grains for breakfast instead? We've done rice and cornmeal mush. And I understand you can eat millet for breakfast. My kids love hot cereal. I'd love to hear your thoughts about what would be tastiest and most economical. --Shawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Cheapest would probably be rice, corn, buckwheat, and millet. There are a number of ways to do rice for breakfast (rice pudding, cracked rice cereal, cream of rice, congee).

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Bobs Red Mill as a Tasty Hot cereal Gluten Free Mix. You can also do millet, amaranth, teff, buckwheat groats, quinoa. Bob's Red Mill also has Gluten Free Oats, if you can find them in your store--it took ours a while to stock it. Amaranth or quinoa is great in the morning with a few handfuls of corn thrown in (if you can tolerate corn). If not, a handful of berries, bananas, etc is good too. We actually do miso soup, steamed dark leafy veggies and a grain in the am......it's a great way to start and keep your blood sugar level all day!

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Many people who can't have gluten also can't have the protein in oats even though the oats are specifically gf from seeding through milling. I am one who can't. The protein is molecularly similar and just isn't something my body can handle.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 If you go to the VGF Files ( ) you'll find a heap of recipes in the " Breakfast " folder. There are also other sweet rice pudding recipes in the " Dessert " folder. Kim , miristar wrote: > > Do you have a vegan rice pudding recipe, please, or a link to one ?

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 If you live in the Portland (OR) area, you can buy Bob's Red Mills GF oats in bulk at their location in Milwaukie. I think they're like 2 bucks a pound, WAY cheaper than buying them packaged. Also, I work at a dedicated GF bakery, and we get our oats from a place in canada. Not sure of their pricing, but it's another option. http://www.creamhillestates.com/en_can_wholesale.php Marie On Mon, Feb 9, 2009 at 10:46 PM, Kim <bearhouse5 wrote: > If you go to the VGF Files ( > ) you'll > find a heap of recipes in the " Breakfast " folder.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 There is another great canadian company called Only Oats that sells only certified GF oats. www.onlyoats.com They offer free shipping to the US and Canada on orders over $40. One benefit of the strong US dollar is that it's worth quite a bit more than the canadian dollar. Still, I could not tolerate the oats for themselves, not because of contamination. Only oats offers a great product called oat pearls for use as a side dish, in soups, stews, etc and they are really tasty - if one can tolerate them.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Have you tried brown rice for breakfast. Cook your rice in the rice cooker and it will be ready in the morning. We put about 1 cup of frozen cherries (thawed) with one half cup of brown rice. Add a little almond milk, and you have a wonderful breakfast. My husband puts a bit of maple syrup on it. Enjoy! : pdworkman: Mon, 9 Feb 2009 21:48:54 -0700Re: Gluten-free oats Cheapest would probably be rice, corn, buckwheat, and millet.
