Hot dog on a roll
I've been dying for a hot dog on a roll so I had my usual chicken dog w/GF mustard on an enerG GF/EF/DF hot dog roll w/onions. Only new thing was the roll & onions. Got a little stomach ache but no D. Those rolls have lots of junk in them (& were not very good) but it sure felt "normal" to eat it. Any suggestions on better rolls? Think it was the raw onions? Love & light, Rita

Hmm, Rita,
Oma got me to thinking. What about making a potato soup with a little mustard thrown in to taste, and then a chopped chicken frank thrown in as well? Take or leave the raw onion ingredient!
Not the same, I know, but...
Oh, maybe this would be better if you like chili and know of a good, safe one. You could simply put a slit down the length of a frank, mashing some mustard in the slit, and some finely chopped onions in there as well. Then, you could pour whatever amount of chili you desire over the whole thing (on a plate, or even a baked potato.
Rita, what brand of chicken franks is it that you enjoy? I tried out some franks not too long ago that I got from WFs in the brand that starts with W. I'd tried and liked their other products (find them hanging in packages back in the meet depart)such as ham steaks, canadian bacon, and other delicious kinds of ham.
Reason I didn't like their franks was because the skins were so tough, there was no way you could eat them like a hot dog. Finally had to skin em and eat the insides -- what a mess -- threw em out!
One thing I'm going to do next time I get one of those ham steaks is to cube em, and throw the cubes on top of a salad. Would be afraid to try this away from home, but the company that begins with "W" has the GF SF, etc. codes in little color-coded boxes right on the front of the package -- neat! Now you probably know which one I'm talking about, don'tcha?
Have been planning on making some sorta pizza out of the Canadian bacon. It's a bit greasy, but tasty, I think.
Think one of their other versions is called "Bavarian Ham" and there's till another that I've forgotten at this point. I freeze them -- guess that's ok, but seems as though they had pretty long stop dates on em for storage in the regular frig.
Yup, perhaps a GF baker would fix ya up in buns for a special treat. I'd like to try that myself!
Let us know how your next dawg turns out, ok. (Picked this up from a Georgia person. Ha!)
Yours, Luce

Hi Rita,
Know what you mean about the Energe Rolls but don't know a thing about a hot dog.
I have found excellent rolls at Celiac Specialties in Michigan and also at Mr. Ritts in Philadelphia. They both make hot dog rolls as of my last order.

Hi Babci,
Have you tried a romaine leaf or a rice tortilla instead of a roll? Back when I was eating bread, I could not find any rolls that I liked. They were heavy and tasteless and loaded with calories to boot!
Love,
Polly

Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.
The only GF hot dog buns available locally, contain soy, and are so tough that eating them is about like trying to eat a leather shoe. I've given up on them.
Polly, who make the rice torilllas? I've never seen any locally, (or anywhere else, for that matter).
Love,
Tex

Luce's suggestion of a dish is a good one. How about almost a mac and cheese style casserol, with rice macaroni, potato soup in place of cheese as the thick base, and cut up the hot dogs into it. My mom used to put hot dogs in the mac and cheese we had frequently when I was growing up. She made the best mac and cheese I've ever had.

Wayne,
I was ecstatic when I found the frozen rice tortillas. They are called "brown rice tortillas" and are made by Food for Life (www.foodforlife.com).
Ingredients include......brown rice flour, filtered water, tapioca flour, safflower oil, rice bran, vegetable gum (xanthan, cellulose) and sea salt.
I seem to tolerate them very well. I get them at my health food store. I nuke them for about 15-20 seconds and then use them for sandwiches. I hope you can find them!

Polly,
The rice tortillas sound interesting. I will have to look for them next time I go to the HF.
I don't do bread or rolls anymore either but I have seen some hamburger rolls made by "Foods by George" and they are also frozen (HF store). They are gluten free and I believe they are dairy free too - don't know about other triggers.
Good luck finding something that works - and hurray for feeling "normal" while eating the hot dogs. Doesn't take much to thrill us, does it?!
Love,
Karen

Thanks for the information, Polly. I'll see if my local HF store can order them.
Karen, that's an incredible quote, "Doesn't take much to thrill us, does it?" I never gave it much thought before, but that's really a profound statement. Talk about "lowered expectations".
These days, I'm happy as a lark if I can find something new, that's just "tolerable". If it actually tastes great, I'm probably risking a heart attack, just from the shock. LOL. You're right, it doesn't take much to thrill us, at least not as far as our digestive systems are concerned.
Love,
Wayne

Hi Karen,
Foods by George - I can give input on all of their products.
Their brownies, apple cake, pizza is great.
Muffins are also quite good and they sometimes - in some areas - call them rolls. All of them are great as a muffin toasted but if you use them untoasted with a burger, etc. they will fall apart. They do taste quite good and for the first 2 years of this GF diet I lived on them when I went birding. A little hummus, a little jelly or something like that and they were great. Don't use Peanut Butter unless you want to choke from them.
Love, Maggie

Gotta ask - what is hummus? I have heard many of you mention it and I just don't know what you're talking about! 
"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful." -- Buddha
Hummus (houmous, hommus, or humus) is a dip made of chickpea paste with various additions, such as olive oil, fresh garlic, lemon juice, paprika, and tahini (sesame seed paste). It is popular all over the Middle East including Syria, Lebanon, Israel, the Palestinian territories, Turkey, Greece, Cyprus, though the hummus eaten in Greece, Turkey, and Cyprus is quite different from the hummus eaten in the Arab world and in Israel. It is traditionally scooped up with flatbread (pieces of pita) to be eaten, but it is increasingly popular as a dip for tortilla chips. It is a popular breakfast food, especially when combined with another dip named "Ful" (pronounced "Fool"), which is based on crushed fava beans. It is also used as an appetizer dish to accompany main courses.
Hummus is relatively cheap to make with either dried or canned chickpeas. Dried chickpeas must be soaked in water overnight then simmered for an hour or more. The cooked or canned chickpeas are ground, using a food processor or hand blender, with olive oil, lemon juice, and tahini. Garlic, salt, cumin, and chili powder may be added.
It is a nutritious food, containing a large amount of protein, dietary fiber, and mono-unsaturated fat, and is suitable for vegetarians and vegans. It is often garnished with parsley, paprika, tomatoes, cucumber, or thinly sliced onions.
