    This bread it great and SO EASY. I've made it a few times (with yeast). My daughter loves it, we've used it for sandwiches, grilled cheese, and french toast. I highly recommend it.

    This recipe was yummy. Instead of 2 loaves, I made one loaf, 6 muffins, and 24 mini muffins. It is more bread like (rather than cake-like) than I've made before, but it was very tasty. Thanks!

    I actually asked DD what we should have for dinner at her party and she said peaches and pears. She definitely eats more than she used to eat (prior to March when she was diagnosed), but her diet is still pretty limited. Her favorite meals are diced chicken mixed with rice and Velveeta, scrambled eggs, blueberry waffles, and pancakes...not really party...

    DD is turning 3 in a few weeks and we're having a small party for immediate family. Although DD is the only one gluten-free in our family, I'd like to make her party gluten free if I can figure out something easy to make for everyone. I'd prefer not to do deli meats, but I am open to any other suggestions....especially easy ideas for dinner. Thank you!...

    Do you sub the chia or s.a.l.b.a. seeds 1:1 for xanthan gum? Do you grind it or use the whole seed? Thank you!

    If I add flaxseed meal to a muffin or bread recipe that doesn't normally call for flaxseed meal, do I need to adjust the other ingredients? I've seen it as a egg replacer (I think), so I was wondering if I have to decrease the eggs otherwise, or anything else, and if so, by how much, to keep it from being too dry or too moist. Thanks!

    Does anyone have a recipe for apple cinnamon muffins? My daughter likes banana chocolate chip muffins, but won't eat the blueberry or pumpkin ones I've tried, so I thought I'd try apple since it's a mild flavor and she used to love apple cereal bars. Any good recipes out there? Thanks!

Combine...

    This is a great recipe! It was my first successful (mostly) gluten free yeast bread. I'm not gluten-free (my DD is), and I really think it really tasted like french bread. DD liked it for mini pizzas. We also made great french toast with it...the texture holds up much better than other gluten-free bread that falls apart when wet. I also made garlic butter...

    DD uses a thermos for lunch at preschool. She's 2.5, so 10 oz works well for her. It's a wide mouth Thermos brand and it's great! I definitely recommend Thermos brand. One tip is to fill it with hot, hot (or microwaved) water for at least 5 minutes in the morning so the food will stay hot longer. I usually go downstairs and fill it with the water while brushing...

    My DD loves Josef cinnamon graham crackers. It took her trying them a few times to get used to them because they're thicker, more like a cookie...but she's 2 and very into texture. DH and I really like them and we're not gluten free. We've bought them online, but our Wegmans carries them now.

    Always check the ingredients on packaged items, but we use the following: Baked/grilled chicken breasts Perdue shortcuts or Kirkland(Costco) grilled chicken strips Canned tuna Hormel pepperoni and turkey pepperoni Hormel chili with beans Oscar Meyer deli meats (they will list wheat, barley, rye, oats in the ingredients; therwise they're gluten-free...

    I've used Chebe mix to make crackers (they have a recipe on their website). I mixed in cheddar cheese to make goldfish/cheeze-it type crackers and used a mini cookie cutter for the shapes (my daughter is 2). You can vary the type of cheese to change the flavor of the cracker. They were pretty good for a plain, basic cracker.

    Anyone else? We bought them, but so far only DH and I (we don't have celiac) have tried them. We haven't given them to our daughter, but I'm curious if anyone else tried them. They are fairly healthy for a chip because they have quinoa and flax seeds. The Celiac Sprue Association website lists oat fiber as not being consistent with a gluten-free diet, so...

    Thanks for your suggestions! I did a search, but also wanted to start a new thread because you never know when someone has tried a new great recipe but hasn't posted about it. I guess I'm searching for the best for my DD!! She is still pretty slow to try new things, so I'm going to stick with chocolate or vanilla for her birthday because she definitely...

    I emailed Minute Maid asking if their juice boxes and pouches are gluten free for my DD. This is the response below, they can't guarantee they are 100% gluten free. I don't know much about Codex yet, still learning. Would you avoid anything not listed in the first paragraph that is confirmed gluten free? We are able to confirm that Coca-Cola classic...

    DD will turn 3 in August, her first birthday since being diagnosed in March. What is your favorite chocolate or vanilla cake recipe? I've tried a few mixes and so far like Pamela's Chocolate Cake Mix the best, but I'd like to make her cake from scratch if there is a great recipe out there. Let me know if there is a special icing recipe you use, too. Thank...

    Yes, I posted them in another thread about Costco in April, but here is the actual email response. The grilled chicken breast strips, 181761, are Costco's version of Perdue Shortcuts, but they are Kirkland brand. Dear Holly, Thank you for your email to Costco Wholesale. Sorry it took so long, but these products are all by different vendors...

    Just a suggestion...I saw lots of products at Cosco I was interested in but didn't want to buy unless gluten free...you can make a list of the products and product numbers in question while you walk through the store for other purchases, then email Costco about the products in question. I received an email 1-2 days later saying they would be back in touch...

    I recently called Banana Boat and emailed Bullfrog to ask about their sunblocks. Banana Boat said all of their sunblocks are gluten free. Same with Bullfrog, but via email (see below): "Thank you for contacting Chattem, Inc. BULLFROG. All formulas of Bullfrog Sunblock are gluten free. Should you wish to contact us again please write to Chattem, Inc...

    I recently contacted Orajel about their toddler toothpastes: Is your Orajel toddler toothpaste gluten free? Thank you! Their response: "Thank you for your email. Our Toddler Training Toothpastes are gluten free. Consumer Relations"

    I recently contacted Bumble and bumble about some of their hair products and received a great response. While several of the products I asked about contain wheat, I was impressed at how detailed they are...see below, they have info on gluten as well as corn, rice, and soy. I like their prep (for my daughter) and tonic, so I'm glad those are gluten free....

    Yes, Fruity Pebbles are gluten free. Some mainstream cereals may have the risk of cross contamination, but my daughter eats Fruity Pebbles, Cocoa Pebbles, Trix, and Rice Chex without a problem. Make sure the Rice Chex box says Gluten Free on front b/c they just recently took out the malt, so gluten-filled boxes are still out in some stores. Berry Berry Kix...

    I would invite everyone for the playdate with a heads up that you plan to provide all of the food so you can offer treats everyone (including you and your daughter) can enjoy. There are plenty of things you can offer...fruit, gluten free pretzels/chips/cookies, or whatever you and your daughter would typically have as snacks (sorry, I don't know much about...

    We live in Pennsylvania, but will be driving to New Brunswick, Canada this summer. We will be staying in a very small town with only a very tiny general store, but we can drive to St. John for a regular grocery store or SuperWalMart. We plan to pack specialty items for our DD 2.5 (like gluten free pretzels, rice pasta, pancake/cookie mix, etc), but we would...
