oats do not trigger my CELIAC, its a basis for my GF diet and my tTG-Iga test numbers are 1.

Another vote for rice pudding. I do it with almond milk to avoid pre-ride dairy. My recipe: 1 cup short grain rice, 3 cups plain unsweetened almond milk, 1/4 cup maple syrup, sea salt to taste (I like it salty enough to actually detect the salt), and I also put my collagen in here so 3-4 servings of that, if you listened to the collagen podcast episode and got on THAT train. If so, it works best to add it while the almond milk is still cold, as it likes to clump if you add it when things are hot. From there, go nuts… it’s good with craisins or shredded coconut added, or a spoonful of peanut or almond butter stirred in, or it’s REALLY good by itself with sliced strawberries on top, but if you have VO2s or something on deck you might want to skip any add-ins, lol. Makes 3-4 servings.

Same for me. I eat steel cut oats daily and no longer show signs of Celiac since eliminating gluten.

I think the closest thing to grits on the other side of the pond is polenta.

By the way, in the US, rice pudding is a real rarity. The vast majority of us didn’t grow up with it, and it’s an odd texture.

Side note to the side note, I had a real eye opener the first time I went to London. We were eating in the office cafe and people kept talking about pudding. I went up to the desert cooler and there was no pudding anywhere! That was when I found out desert is called pudding. And when I finally understood the Pink Floyd lyric, “If you don’t eat your meat, you can’t have any pudding! How can you have any pudding if you don’t eat your meat?”

Rice pudding in the states is like a dessert

Grits adorned with 3 boiled eggs and my hot sauce of choice has been my pre-ride meal going on three years now. I’ve always preferred savory over sweet

Side note, but those eggs look odd, they are nearly only yolk!

For some lighter days and to not go sweet I have opted more for a savoury breakfast with veg and couscous. Pretty quick to dry fry up, add some hot sauce and nutritional yeast with soya sauce, good to go:

Use Quinoa for a GF version.

Leftover rice with canned sardines, some fresh chopped tomatoes & spring onions and some kind of sticky asian style sauce (soy, peanut etc). I make a ghetto teryaki-esque one with soy and peanut butter, honey and a few other ingredients.

Or rice with canned mackerel fillets in spicy tomato sauce.

Rice ad canned fish is a great shout. Quick and simple too which is ideal for breakfast.

Asain sauce sounds idea, shop ones are usually packed with rubbish. Do you have a good recipe?

Can you eat barley? I treat it just like oatmeal with regards to add-ins…fruit, nuts, etc.

It does, but I make a batch on Sunday or Monday that will last me 4-5 days. It’s a little bit of effort, but also a nice alternative to mix things up a bit.

I’ll add that I use my Instant Pot to cook it, put the barley and water in, set it for 20 minutes and I don’t even think about it until it’s done.

My only thoughts are that barley contains gluten no?
