This recipe is gluten-free.

I am a huge cereal eater. A box of cereal is always sitting next to my chair so I can snack on it while watching TV.  I love bringing a ziplock bag full of cereal to the movie theater because it is hard for me to eat popcorn plus, as you may know, movie theaters usually don't offer much of a gluten-free selection. One of the best cereal companies for being Gluten-Free is General Mills.  General Mills is working hard at making people who suffer from Celiac Disease and gluten allergies happy. During the fall season, they came out with Gluten-Free Pumpkin Spice Cheerios which had a great pumpkin flavor. I am dying to try the Very Berry Cheerios, but for some reason none of the stores near me sell it. Chex Corn and Rice were the first of General Mills to be gluten-free. My favorite Chex cereal is Vanilla and Chocolate. I use the Rice and Vanilla to make the Muddy Buddy Mix.  I still don't understand General Mills doesn't make their Muddy Buddy mix gluten-free.  It

It is that time of the year when we have to say goodbye to the old year and welcome the new. 2016 has been a great year for me other than my health.  I usually have to deal with something going wrong with my health every year. Positive things that happened: Chosen to produce and help write our thesis film. This film one 3rd place at the Grand Rapids Comic-Con.  Graduated from College.

My first one was the music video. Second, I was hired to produce

  The University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center is a premier research center for celiac disease in the United States and the world.  I received an article in my email about their a little bit of the research they are doing and what they are starting to find out. The more research we can get the more likely there could be a cure. RESEARCH IN PROGRESS... 1. Evidence that viral infections play a role in celiac disease. The prevalence of celiac disease continues to rise, suggesting that environmental factors must trigger and precipitate the disease. For a long time, it was suspected that viruses might play a role in celiac disease, and more generally in autoimmunity. Thanks to generous donations, we were able to initiate studies and obtain preliminary data that were critical for receiving NIH funding to study the role of intestinal viruses in celiac disease pathogenesis in collaboration with Drs. Terrence Dermody (University of Pittsburgh) and Ramnik Xavier (Massachusetts Gener

A few days ago I posted a grilling DIY video, I created with my good friend Edward Jay Nelson. These recipes are gluten-free, but I had a reader ask me about grilling contamination. It is a huge misconception that gluten can be “killed” if it’s cooked at high temperatures. This isn’t true. Gluten, according celiaccentral.org, is a particle and not a bacteria so it cannot be destroyed with heat. The only way to really remove gluten is by really cleaning the racks on your grill. You can’t really do this: Phone Rings. You pick it up. It’s your best friend Susie who has invited you to their Fourth of July party. You: Hi, Susie. Susie (a.k.a. Friend): I am so excited you are coming to the party. We are  going to have grilled chicken, hot dogs. You: Do you grill any breaded stuff on your grill? Susie: Steve usually toasts the buns on the grill. You: You need to clean your grill racks completely. It needs to be bleached and really scrubbed.    Susie: What? You: Af
