Kid Recipes?

We have just been told that my 4 yr old has to switch to a CF and gluten-free diet. I am totally overwhelmed!!! Could someone suggest a kid friendly recipe or cookbook to get me started?? I bought some gluten-free pancake mix and made a big batch. He spit the 1st bite out!

I would appreciate any suggestions/tips that you all might have!

Thanks!

Websites like this one and the delphi forum have great recipes that real live celiac people have eaten! But the cookbooks I use:

The Gluten-Free Kitchen by Roben Ryberg (I've used it so much I bought a second copy. Some of the recipes didn't work so well with egg substitute, but it uses nice easy-to-get ingredients)

The Kid-Friendly Food Allergy Cookbook by Leslie Hammond (lots of multiple-allergy recipes, with subsitutions noted.)

Incredible Edible Gluten-Free Food for Kids by Sheri Sanderson. (has some fun and unique ideas, but we don't use this one as much. It is the "nicest" cookbook in terms of layout and design)

Good luck! My son is now 12 and was dx at 10 -- it does get easier :)

If you google Gluten-free Casein-free diet there are quite a few websites and I think some of them even have recipe sections.

This site has Gluten-free Casein-free products that are downright tasty. Enjoy!!

I saw a thread recently about gluten-free burger buns that are apparently very light and fluffy. A search should turn it up for you. The poster even supplied a video to show the "spongyness" and stuff.

I recently tried the Kinnikinnick hamburger rolls. Just wrap in in a paper towel and nuke it for about 30 seconds and it nice and fresh and soft!

I don't know if they are Gluten-free Casein-free...Sorry I wasn't paying attention to that part of your post.

It may take a while to find replacements that are palatable to kids, and it may also take them a while to "forget" the taste of wheat. Be patient, and experiment!

      Hi everyone I'm James, I hope you are all feeling well??. Accidentally had gluten at weekend and I've had severe diarrhea since sat night. My question is ,the longer someone like myself has been following a strict gluten-free diet will the exposure to gluten be lot more extreme as body now has been free of it well over a year ? Any information be much appreciated and any tips on how to stop the constant diarrhoea I have currently also be appreciated guys x

      I use Listerine.  Rinse first to soften the tarter, then brush with Oral B electric toothbrush super sonic.  The $15 ones at the supermarket.  At 73 I still have all my teeth.  While a blood test can measure iodine levels, it's not the most accurate method for assessing iodine status, and urinary iodine excretion is considered a better indicator.  Have any of your dermatologists ever done a biopsy for dermatitis herpetiformis?  I may have missed it.  Note the similarity of Casal's necklace to one of your symptoms. Pellagra rash is a characteristic skin manifestation of niacin (vitamin B3) deficiency. It typically presents as:  Erythema: Red, sunburned-like areas of skin, often on the face, neck, arms, and legs.  Scaliness: Dry, flaky skin that may become thickened and crusty.  Hyperpigmentation: Darkened patches of skin, particularly in sun-exposed areas.  Casal's necklace: A dark, pigmented band around the neck.  I am currently taking these} Vitamin D 10,000 IU (250 mcg) DHEA 100 mg 500 mcg Iodine  10 drops of Liquid Iodine B1 Thiamin 250 mg  B2 Riboflavin 100 mg B3 Nicotinic Acid 500 mg 4 times a day for hyperlipidemia. B5 Pantothenice Acid 500 mg Vitamin C 500 mg     Selenium 200 mcg  Several times a week

      I will. Thanks. I did just have mg B12 drawn. I should also state that I am already taking a Vit D supplement, as I live in the US in New England sand just about everyone who lives here is deficient, esp during our winters with less exposure to natural sunlight. I was also taking a chewable bariatric vitamin as well because of my food issues related to my cancer treatment (which was many years ago, but there are long term effects.) I just stopped it because I was unable to get any gluten information about it. And it did contain iodine. Is there even a vitamin that doesn’t? I don’t know, but I will check. I also take Calcium and Magnesium in the form of “Rolaids” for leg cramps/spasms, with good effects. Thanks.
