Since going gluten free we have been doing cubed meats and fruit for lunch... she is rapidly growing tired of that. What do you feed your gluten-free toddlers?

Some of my three-year-old's favorites... :P

- Bell pepper (green, red, etc...)

- Carrots

- Broccoli

- Hard boiled eggs

- Nuts (we've never had a choking incident)

- Popcorn

- Yogurt (dairy or soy)

- Celery with dip

- Dried fruit (raisins, apricots, etc...)

- gluten-free waffles

- Cheese (including cottage cheese)

- Corn or rice cakes with peanut butter

I found a nice gluten-free dill dip from Simply Organic at my local natural food store (you just mix it with sour cream or yogurt). Watch out though... the ranch dressing is not gluten-free.

Cheese quesadilla? Like a grilled cheese but with corn tortillas. If you can get her to eat refried beans with it, it will be more nutritious. If she doesn't like them in it try letting her use them for a dip.

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      Juice shots? Anti inflammatory

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.
