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!

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
