My brother in law has family who are coeliacs, so I have seen how hard it is to avoid.<br /><br />I often take gluten free cupcakes to events, to cater for my BIL's family or to give a choice to everyone. I think it they often end up with a similar choice to vegans, what they brought along or nothing. Since I am baking anyway, I figure I can do gluten free and give everyone another option. The GF recipes in Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World work well, with commercial GF flour instead of Isa's options.<br /><br />By the way, the tapioca pudding looks great. I think I will use your recipe and make some tonight.BrisVeganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10148873915539733805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25669750.post-33013668434578687372010-01-24T03:37:41.921+10:002010-01-24T03:37:41.921+10:00Wow I can't remember the last time i've ma...Wow I can't remember the last time i've made tapioca pudding. Yours looks so good and with mango! uhhh!<br />Your right about the gluten thing I mean alot of the reactions from people are what can you eat? Just like when they ask when people find out you are a vegan. Now I don't have a huge problem with gluten like my son but there are so many things you can eat it just takes some adjusting is all.dreaminitveganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13036912040629825367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25669750.post-76582880976033619602010-01-22T13:14:13.698+10:002010-01-22T13:14:13.698+10:00Enjoyed your thoughts on gluten free diets, and yo...Enjoyed your thoughts on gluten free diets, and you make a great point about perceptions between omnivores, vegans, and gluten free folks.<br /><br />Love the red lentil dal (I've been on a serious lentil craze lately), and I'm pretty jealous about the in season mangos :) - the pudding looks delicious!Mike Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08051037807615793962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25669750.post-63060808819314453492010-01-21T09:12:03.594+10:002010-01-21T09:12:03.594+10:00Mmm red lentil dahl is my favourite.

Only difference is that sago probably needs to cook longer, and thus may need a bit more liquid.Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08526136978255752695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25669750.post-46577966297025543262010-01-21T06:21:41.933+10:002010-01-21T06:21:41.933+10:00I've been gluten-free for 20 days now on this ...I've been gluten-free for 20 days now on this cleanse I'm on. I have 6 days to go, but I'm planning a cheat day for Saturday (and I WILL be having bread!). I gotta say, I was afraid of missing gluten when I started, but I don't miss it nearly as much as I do coffee, red wine, and sugar. <br /><br />That being said, I look forward to my next PB&J Sandwich.<br /><br />The dhal and pudding look amazing!Biancahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11545245728462853370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25669750.post-59963010515808800352010-01-21T02:52:03.513+10:002010-01-21T02:52:03.513+10:00I don't think I'd have a problem missing t...I don't think I'd have a problem missing things like bread or pastry, as I've grown up in a wheat-free household and subsequently tend not to crave gluten-based products. But I think the tricky thing, as you say, is how pervasive minor amounts of gluten are!<br /><br />Love the look of the tapioca pudding, although I'm a sucker for any dessert with cinnamon :) I'm wondering, though, is seed tapioca similar to sago? We have a rather large and barely-used container of sago back home, so this might prove a pleasurable means of using some of it up...Hannahhttp://wayfaringchocolate.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25669750.post-2021517592564140302010-01-21T00:04:31.004+10:002010-01-21T00:04:31.004+10:00I tried going gluten free for awhile, and it is mo...I tried going gluten free for awhile, and it is more frustrating to me than being vegan....but I don't think it is as terrible as it initally sounds either! My sister in law has celiacs also, so I'm more aware of it now.

I've actually been having some similar thoughts though and I've started going through my older posts and find all of the gluten free posts, good to know that at least some of my old meals are ok. Still not much though.<br /><br />I've heard great thing about tapioca pudding though, so am going to bookmark this recipe.Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16391678902908585000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25669750.post-56123256958813969412010-01-20T18:43:04.920+10:002010-01-20T18:43:04.920+10:00I have the same mixed feelings about being gluten ...I have the same mixed feelings about being gluten free.
