    My experience in dealing with the cafeteria staff at our school has been. 1 Have conversations in person whenever possible 2. Be EXTREMELY grateful for them taking time to help your child ( I do this regardless of how I really feel *wink*) 3. Be clear that it's an autoimmune disorder but it responds like an allergy ( they will understand allergy...

    I have not found anything commercially sold *sigh*. But, a friend of mine is indian and she makes fried onions with besan flour (chickpea) as a snack. I will ask her how she makes it but in the mean time you can prob google a recipe if you want to try it.

    Ditto here. I did get rid of everything at once but replaced it over time to reduce the monetary impact.

    To avoid a lot off cc I would mention: always cooking in aluminum foil and having her eat first whenever possible You can throw in a jar of pb and jelly in suitcase and a frozen loaf of bread just to be sure. If you can manage it a box of cereal for munching on also. My daughter has a mess kit from girl scouts and I sent to my sisters with her...

    If I told you I also gave my DD Hershey kisses and she got sick, I bet you would tell me it wasn't my fault that it's a learning experience and I shouldn't be so hard on myself that we all make mistakes and you would comfort me. Truth is WE are harder on OURSELVES than anyone else could ever possibly be. So if you can forgive me you MUST forgive yourself...

    I am in Mass. also so altitude isn't it. I let it rise to just below the pan line as I thought it would cook higher so maybe letting it rise more is it.

    I have made this recipe 3 times now. All three times the bread taste great, the texture is good but the bread has never baked as high as your picture. It will rise in the pan to 1/2 below top of pan then I bake at 375 for 50-55 minutes. When it bakes it does not rise at all then It seems to settle but not sink as it cools, therefore making it heavier...

    Depending on the recipe maybe you can sub rice krispie , chex or whole o's gluten-free cereals. I knwo they are not flake-like but I don't think there are too many subs for oats.

    We too have been dreading the sleepover since going gluten free. We have had only the 1 party sleepover so far and that went well. The mom called me from the grocery store and asked me for shopping directions (I love this lady for that) Ordered gluten-free pizza , drinks etc.. They had popcorn and chips with fruit rollup at movie time. I provided gluten-free...

    Look at this thread: Perfect Gluten-Free White/sandwich Bread (at least I think so) Her recipe is great. This is a really good recipe, practically idiot proof ( at least for me it is, hahaha ) You could tweek the recipe a little, maybe try replacing a little flour with mashed potatoes or potato flakes if they are gluten-free to get that taste...

    That is a good question!! Before anyone can answer that here is a question for you; What was your favorite brand of brand? I ask because there are literally a gazillion gluten-free bread recipes out there ranging from Sorghum , Teff, Buckwheat, Almond flour, Sweet potato flour , or plain rice flour etc..... So to narrow those replies ( you will...

    A few things I looked out for my first gluten-free thanksgiving. Make sure the bouillon in the pan juices ( if you add it) is gluten-free , If they make gravy use corn starch for thickening (make sure the pack of corn starch is new or cc free Make sure the butter for the potatoes is from a fresh pack unused or it could have cc on it , same for fresh...

    For those of you who can only order this because it's not available in stores near you, Amazon has it on sale. I will not link the site because sometimes they don't work, happy shopping.

    Update: Six flags New England offers 2 gluten free foods :dippity dots and soft serve ice cream , lol i was told no problem bringing food into park for Celiacs as they have no alternative food options. The family is very much aware of the issue's and even caught a mistake I made this past summer, SO I know she won't be getting anything unsafe. Just...

    My DD's tastes changed alot over the first 6months gluten-free, mostly she liked less foods and 18 months later she still doesn't like those fruits etc.. I thinks it normal. You can eat the same things so long as it's a fairly balanced day/week nutritionally. IT's a good time to try new things, fruits, veggies dressings, marinades etc.. promise...

    Hello all, My DD is going to six flags tomorrow and I plan on packing her lunch and dinner but am wondering if there are any food or snack options . Springfield Ma. six flags ANyone have any actual experience at this Six flags? She is going with another family so I cannot check out the options myself and I have not had luck getting thru via phone...

    Did you recently go gluten free? I found my DD's palate changed when she went gluten-free . Also, Iron can absolutley make you nauseous it did to me. In addition regular multi vitamins make me sick I had to switch brands multiple times to find one I could take.

    FYI on the gluten-free Smoreables (graham-like crackers) firstly they are 1/3 the size so you may need 2+ boxes and secondly they are much much sweeter than wheat grahams. Test one first. Lemon might contrast the sweet better.

    I have tried and liked quite a few recipes on this website. www.Elanaspantry.com there are a few dairy /nut free options. good luck

    here in Mass. I get it at Stop and shop, Market Basket/Demoulas, and Daves in RI

    It's not about eating a warmed hot lunch it'a about ordering a lunch like the OTHER KIDS. My DD would like the option once or twice a week. We can heat up lunches now but an Aide has to do it in the teachers lounge ( no Microwaves allowed in cafe) and it takes half her lunch time to get it done. The prices are within a dollar of each other so really...

    I have not filed for anything and don't know where to start. Can you head me in the right direction? Thanks.

    YEs I know all about the MAJOR CC problems in school cafeteria's . I am trying to talk them into a privately bought Gluten free only griddle for cooking the food on etc... etc... We have been brown bagging it since the day of diagnosis except for a few trials that didn't work so well. I am trying to work with them on education and understanding but...
  24. Mizzo
    keep watching A... If that is your only option as they have sales every month or so on gluten-free foods for about 25% off.
  25. Mizzo
    $10.69 is ridiculous!!!! That's insane I wouldn't buy it either . I would definitely buy fresh and already made for $4.99 instead. Maybe you can shop around, I can buy KA fLour at a store 10 miles from me for $4.99 so it's worth it to me but not you. BTW are you in Colorado, they seem to have all the bakeries with fresh Udi's
