Hi ,

I have been gluten free for 3 years and I'm happy to help any way I can. I have

2 kids who love my GF baking and actually prefer some of the GF products to the

" real " thing. I'm happy to help any way I can. Please feel free to email me.

It really doesn't work to go half way. If it turns out that he has a gluten

sensitivity(and mood can certainly be a symptom of that) then any amount of

gluten will cause a reaction. The only way to know for sure is to completely

eliminate the gluten for a few weeks. it will definitely require his cooperation

to succeed. And it will help if the whole house is GF for the trial period so he

isn't tempted.

There are breads that taste fantastic. For store bought, Udi's is the best. Keep

it frozen and thaw out only what you will use for each serving, otherwise it

will dry out. I pop mind in the toaster frozen for toast or thaw for 30 min or

so to make a sandwich. It's fine to make a sandwich to pack for school and eat a

few hours later. For home made from a mix, I prefer Pamela's or King Arthur

Flour.

This will get long if I post everything here but I am more than happy to give

you more tips or recipes via email if you'd like. Gluten free does not have to

mean tasteless and unenjoyable by any means, even for kids. A bit tougher to be

sure when he is already eating gluten foods but it can be done. :)

Rice Krispies makes a gluten free version that tastes fine. Fruity and cocoa

pebbles are both gluten free.
