Need Egg Free, Dairy Free And Gluten Free Ideas

A friend of mines son was just diagnosed with egg, gluten and dairy intolerances, so they're out of ideas. The little boy is Autistic and can't really talk, so it's difficult to find out what he likes and doesn't like.

They're mainly looking for meal and snack ideas. He is texture phobic apparently...so he likes things like apple sauce, but not cottage cheese (just an example.)

He really loves carbs right now...pasta, etc. So, any ideas would be greatly appreciated! :)

Cherrybrook Kitchen chocolate cake mix is gluten-free, dairy- free, and egg- free even after you follow the instructions on the box. I made it in a mini-muffin tin.

Here are some other ideas.

Broccoli Cheese Rice

Instead of the usual pasta with red sauce I saute a little onion and garlic in Earthbalance and/or olive oil. Add chopped ham and finely chopped broccoli(fresh or frozen) or frozen peas and toss with pasta.

My husband made great tofu hamburger steaks this week. I don't have a recipe, he's a cook by feel kind of guy. Instead of the breadcrumbs and egg he used tofu. Added finely chopped carrots and onion etc. shaped and sauteed. They held together well and were moist. I'll see if I can find a similar recipe and post a link if I do.

His "recipe" is like this but used tofu in place of the egg and breadcrumbs. He said he used almost the same amount of tofu and ground beef but less tofu would be OK too. You can't see the tofu in the finished product. He makes the same kind of sauce as in this recipe.

My 4 yo loves rice cakes. I posted a recipe for home-made cereal bars here: Open Original Shared Link but m y 4-yo wont eat anything sugary or sticky. You could try making bread sticks out of chebe mixes (but i guess most chebe has milk in it, i think theres one without but i havent found it). My 4 yo also loved, for a while, puffed corn cereal I found at the health food store in a bag - nothing in it but corn. I eat a lot of tortilla chips. Does he like baby carrots?

The book "Cooking Free" will help alot, by Carol Fenster. I just got it or I could help you. She gives recipes and food sensitivity versions. Also read up on how to remove mercury from the body. I saw a program on the internet, wish I could find it for you, that showed how well kids got after the mercury was removed from their bodies. Pregnant mothers and vaccinations can give the child mercury. Mercury can cause autism. Gotta run hope this helps...

Try the magazine Living Without. I get annoyed with the magazine because the recipes usually have lots of ingredients elimnated and I only need to elinate gluten. I have a Jules Shepard Cookbook and most of her recipes include alternative for the things many people are allergic to.They have the magazine at our Whole Foods Market here.

      Hi Cristiana! It's so nice to meet you! Thank you for the kind reply I am glad I live in a time where you can connect with others through the Internet. That is a mercy I am grateful for.

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
