I picked up some good suggestions online for wheat intolerant children....here are a few for you:

Rice paper rolls - you can buy packets of rice paper from the Asian food section. Fill it with vegetable or meat fillings, and pack it in a suitable container that will keep cold (I use Thermos Food Jars as you can get them very cold in the freezer before putting the food in, and they will stay cold for hours).

Dried fruit, cheese wedges, vegetable sticks with hummous/dip, plain popcorn, muffins, GF yogurt/creamed rice, rice crackers and peanut paste, tuna pasta (GF) or chicken salad. And lots of fruit.

A great site is www.kinnikinnick.com/. They have the best GF baked goods that I've tasted, and you can stock pile food by freezing it. The Italian White Tapioca Rice Bread is the best for sandwiches, Blueberry muffins are awesome when heated, and the Plain Bagels taste just like ordinary bagels.

Corn tortilla chips and most plain potato chips are good to include in any lunch. Cheese and crackers is a great and easy alternative to a sandwich. Yogurt, pudding, and jello are tasty and sweet treats. Fruit salad, pasta salad, rice salad, or just salad are all fanastic, filling, and completley full proof. 

Cheese and meat roll ups are great too. Take a slice of lunch meat (ham, turkey, chicken) and spread some cream cheese or other spreadable cheese on it. Then roll them up, pop them in a tupperware, and send them on their way! Solid cheese works fine too. 

I really encourage baking some of your own foods too. It's fun after a while, and you can actually make food you want to have, not food you have to have. There are many awesome GF cook books out there using everyday ingredients. Also, research natural grocery stores in your area. Some have gluten free bakeries right on site. My favorite store is Whole Foods Market which has many options for GF. Some major grocery stores (such as Bashas) are also jumping on the wagon and providing easier to find gluten free goods. If you do a little hunting, you'll find specialty foods hidden in many chain stores. 

Cold g.f. sausages are an excellent filling addition to kids g.f. lunch boxes. I also make batches of muffins with g.f. muffin mix, adding signficant amounts of mashed banana, sesame seeds, rice bran, millet and other wholegrain g.f. cereals. The banana seems to really improve the texture (allow two bananas for each batch) and I think the wholegrains are necessary to make sure you're getting enough magnesium, fibre etc that you'd normally be getting from wholegrain bread. 

The other thing I do is make sure my kids have a substantial breakfast before school e.g. today rice flakes with rice milk, kiwifruit and a boiled egg. Some days they have g.f. buckwheat pasta with g.f. baked beans and a good teaspoon of oil (oil is really important if they are not eating butter/margarine). 

And another great website is at :

Hope this helps you :o)

Didn't your parents ever teach you the meaning of asking politely.....like "Please'' and ''Thank you".....maybe then you might get an answer!

how do you prepare a shell of a tomato for stuffed tomatos
Answers: 1 Views: 262 Rating: 1 Posted: 13 years ago

Jst cut a small slice from top of tomato, scoop out center pulp and stuff with your filling. You can place cut top on top of your filling mixture. You can also use a deep muffin tin to place stuffed tomatoes in and bake in oven. Hope this is a help to you. :o)
