Gluten And Dairy Free Kid's Meals?


JWSJ

Recommended Posts

JWSJ Newbie

Are there any restaurants that have gluten and dairy free kid's meals?

We've only had luck with Jason's Deli and Moe's.

(My kids are tired of eating there when we're out.)

I eat gluten-free and CF. I can get meals at Chili's and several other restaurants. It may not be a "kid's meal" but you should be able to find kid friendly fare. My son and I get bunless burger patties, applesauce is sometimes available or canned mandarin oranges, you could bring along a small container of "butter" like Earthbalance spread in a baby tupperware type container and use it on a baked potato, steamed broccoli is always an option. Most places you may end up with a meat and a veg. and not so much carb. Not "fun" but it is a healthy meal. Baked sweet potatoes are often available too. That's what I get at Outback. Chili's coleslaw has been lsited on their dairy-free options page. I've had it and been ok. Many places have corn too. If a carb is not available maybe let the kids have one of those gastly colored slushy beverages instead as a special treat.

PF Changs also has a number of gluten-free menu items that have no dairy or gluten. My son gets the fried rice often and I get the snow peas and shrimp in moogoo gai pan sauce-that one is very mildly flavored and you can change up the veg if you kiddo doesn't like the one that comes with it. I have some veg allergies so I substitute. Yes, you do pay more for the adult menu items but you do get bigger portions and can share or take home and use again for school lunch etc.

BD's Mongolian Grill is also very kid friendly and no dairy. It is stir-fry with rice. You choose the veg. meat and sauce and you pay kids prices for the kids.

I just posted this on this forum and saw this question so I'll post it again! Chick Filet just announced a new gluten-free kids meal this week and if you choose lemonade or apple juice, then it should be dairy free, too.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
