    Even though in this case it's limited and flawed, I'm always glad when a national chain at least tries to meet the needs of people on gluten free diets. Eating out is and easily being able to order off the menu is something that I really miss since my son has gone gluten free. My son is not celiac - he's I guess what you call gluten intolerant (he does...

    I was thinking about the chocolate chip problem and remembered a video that I saw on this website: www.lillianstestkitchen.com. She makes her own chips - melts pure chocolate, adds some agave, spreads it on a cookie sheet and freezes for a few minutes to harden, then cuts it into tiny chunks. An extra step than just opening the bag but I bet it tastes amazing...

    Hi - I had read on here that Rice Dream might contain a very small amount of gluten in it b/c of the processing. After I read that, I put it together that this was probably what was affecting my son. We had let him have a lot of Rice Dream instead of our usual almond milk for a week because it was on sale. By the end of the week, he was acting like...

    I like this bread recipe and I'm not even gluten free - Open Original Shared Link It does not taste like "regular" gluten bread but I like it anyway - it's shorter and I think it almost has a nutty taste - but it goes together in minutes and is fairly healthy which is a bonus.

    I love the Against the Grain frozen pizza! I wish it weren't so darn expensive though.

    You could always try to go gluten free diet and see if it helps and then go from there. I can't imagine how it would hurt her in any way? I'm probably biased b/c I bf'd my son for 2 1/2 years. I was really glad that I had the opportunity to do that.

    If you want something sweet, I second the recommendation for Elana's Pantry. Are you OK with nuts? She uses mostly almond flour. I make her chocolate chip cookies often and they always come out great. She also has a recipe for brownies using mostly almond butter that might work for you ... I haven't tried it but I read the reviews they were almost 10...

    Thanks, all! You are seriously awesome! I was doing Annie's and all of a sudden my son stopped eating it. I'm wondering if they changed something b/c it tasted less "cheesy" to me. I can't do Kraft b/c my son seems to have a weird reaction to food dyes (he's autistic, and the past couple times we let him have dyes he seemed to get really hyper and we...

    Enjoy Life chips are dairy, soy, and nut free. I use them all the time - love them!

    I have never tried to make gluten-free mac and cheese before and I have some questions. I want to use Tinkyada pasta. In the past, I would cook the mac and cheese al dente and then I put it in the oven to bake. Would I do the same with gluten-free pasta? Does it tend to get mushy if I do both the stovetop and the baking? How long do I boil the pasta...

    Another option might be Envirokids cereals. Just checked my box of Gorilla Munch in the kitchen and there is no canola oil, not sure about the other flavors.

    Maybe add just a touch more of coconut oil? I've subbed coconut oil in a lot of recipes and haven't had a problem with it being dry but I was always subbing for other oils, not butter. But you could also try grapeseed oil. My other thought is that coconut milk is much thicker than regular milk so you might be getting less liquid there. You could add a...

    Yes - we sprung for a yogurt maker. I want to say it was about $35? Supposedly you can also do it with a heating pad but I've never tried it that way.

    Hi - my husband (not celiac) has Meniere's. The biggest suggestion that the doctor had for him was to go VERY low sodium.

    Couple random thoughts ... I absolutely believe that autism is on the rise, and that it's not just a case of "misdiagnosis." My son is autistic - he was diagnosed at 18 months. We suspected at 15 months. He had SO many of the characteristics that we just "knew". But when we talked to our pediatrician about our concerns, he completely blew us off. ...

    My Publix sometimes sells Udi's too (in the freezer section) for a little cheaper than the health foods store. I'm glad that they are getting more gluten-free products!
  18. Kelleybean
    Yay - thanks!

    Hi All - I needed some pizza sauce and the only brand the grocery store carried was Ragu ("Pizza Quick"). One of the ingredients is "modified food starch." I've never seen this before. Is this gluten free? I did a quick internet search in the store and it seemed like MFS is usually gluten free, and there are no allergens listed so I'm thinking it is...

    Is the kale raw or cooked for the pesto?

    My first thought is the Kraft cheese packet since it was touching the pasta - maybe some cc. Annie's makes a gluten free boxed mac and cheese - I get mine in Target for a lot cheaper than the grocery store. Also Amy's has a frozen gluten-free mac and cheese that we keep in the freezer for emergency dinners.

    There are a couple here ... Open Original Shared Link I think the orange chocolate chip ones look good! I have not tried any of her scone recipes, but I've made a lot of things by her and they almost always turn out great.
  23. Kelleybean
    What kinds of things does she like to eat? That might give you a starting point.

    There's also a gluten free version of the Cake Mix Doctor cookbook. You can use the Betty Crocker as a base and add ingredients. I really like the orange cake recipe.

    Not exactly what you are looking for but there's a recipe on the Spunky Coconut for "5 Minute Mac and Cheese" using cashews in the sauce. My super picky 4 year old eats it. Also not sure about Panko exactly, but when a recipe calls for bread crumbs I just run the heels of my Udi's bread through the food processor. Works really well. I've also done crushed...
