Gluten Free Meals That Kids Will (Learn to) Eat


After discovering my son had a multitude of allergies and was also intolerant to gluten, it became my mission to find good tasting recipes. No doubt, kids are picky eaters. If it's not the taste, it's the texture they are rejecting. Now, remove all food they traditionally love (pasta, pizza and chicken fingers) and your left with a nervous breakdown every night at dinner.


This post is dedicated to listing healthy, good tasting meals that kids will eat.


Disclaimer: I usually have to feed any new foods at least 10 times before my kids will "accept it". This is long arduous work. You must endure the whining night after night. Be strong. Do not break. They will come to love all veggies and even eat Dad's blue cheese. Variety being the spice of life, they will come to love many different foods. Our dinner table rule is that one bite must be tried. Thus, they unknowingly are developing a palate for this new food.


Please feel free to share any meal ideas.
