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.

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!

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley...

      Gluten Issues and Vitamin D

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease. Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too. is this everyone’s experience? Can I drink it? I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant react...

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
