Freinds Daughter Gluten Intolerant

I am gluten intolerant as well, and there is a learning curve to this eating style, but it is SOOOO worth it once you discover how much better you feel eating gluten-free. (By "you" I mean those who are gluten intolerant or have Celiac.) Some people who are intolerant rather than full-blown Celiac may discover they can tolerate certain things that Celiacs can't, it takes some trial and error/experimentation. For instance, I can eat oatmeal just fine but some people can't.

Here are some kid-friendly recipes I found online, but can't personally vouch for:

Tell them to try and find cup4cup flour. It works like wheat flour in most recipes (not breads) and makes baking muffins/cookies/etc so much easier. Cookie dough generally needs to be refrigerated before baking though.

When I was a kid, I had a friend from hong kong that got me hooked on this:

Rice Noodles
1-2T Oyster sauce
0.5 t Sesame Oil
1 t sugar

Later in life, I worked with a woman (also from hong kong), and when I mentioned this and how much I liked it, she said "that's how we feed noodles to little kids"

So I guess it's the Chinese version of sketti-n-buttuh
