I want to make some treats with my kids but i need them to be free from gluten casein and soy. I was going to make popcorn balls but most recipes ask for butter.

any ideas would be appreciated

How about bobbing for apples? :lol:

I only did it once as a kid... but it was really fun! Gluten-free, casein-free, soy-free fun :)

Brittle. I like pumpkin seed brittle. All you really need is sugar. Anything else is negotiable.

On that note, Trio bars (at costco) are GFCFSF. So are Jocalat (Lara) Bars. I know those are already made, but Trio bars are similar to multi-seed/nut brittle, and Jocolat are similar to raw "brownies." If you like those, you can try making them easily.

Oh, and these cookies are really good, if you can eat peanuts and eggs. I've also made them with almond butter. Just make sure it's natural (just ground nuts) because that's the bulk of the cookie.

PB cookies

1 c crunchy all natural peanut butter (pour off extra fat)

1 c brown sugar (or less)

1 t vanilla

1 egg

1/2 t salt

1 t baking soda

2 T gluten free flour

preheat 350. mix together. form into 1T balls. should make 12 cookies. press with fork to make criss crosses. place in fridge for 5 min if you don't want them to spread too much. bake about 10-15 min till golden brown. if you want softer bake less and more crumbly bake longer.

This post is probably late and I don't know if candycorn is SF but you can take the thin clear plasic gloves and place one candycorn point side down in each finger for fingernails and then fill up the rest of the glove with the popcorn and tie at the wrist with a ribbon.

What about roasting pumpkin seeds? We used to do this all the time when I was little with the seeds from the pumpkins we carved. You can make them really really spicy with lots of different herbs, sweet, or just simple and natural with a little salt. *Use oil instead of butter:

Sometimes you just need a creative name. We are having body parts soup tonight. Really just meatballs(eyes), gluten-free elbow macaroni (ribs) and whatever else I can think up.

How about the easiest peanut butter cookies EVER!

1 cup sugar

1 cup peanut butter, or other nut butter

1 egg

Mix all together and bake at 350 until done.

(optional)- add some Enjoy Life chocolate chips. They are dairy free, gluten free, soy free, and nut free!

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
