    Hi all, if this is in the wrong section please move. I want to cook some freezer to microwave meals for my mother but she has Dermatitis Herpetiformis, that means she has an extreme reaction to gluten and is on medication and must follow a gluten free diet. So I made up lots of gluten free meals such as cottage pie with mashed potato topping and put them in her freezer. Now she tells me that she cannot eat reheated potato or reheated rice that she has been told it will aggravate her condition. As neither contain gluten I don't understand why. I know you have to be careful with reheated rice due to Bacillus cereus but this illness is not specific to a gluten intolerance. I don't understand why cooked frozen and then reheated potato would be a problem. I'm not disagreeing with her but would like to know the science behind it.

    And also if this is true suggestions for freezer to microwave meals. All she eats is gluten free toast and actimels, her nutrition is very low. Thanks
