Ella has severe dairy/egg allergies so this thread is great!
*Yeah the polenta is great - i add salmon or tuna into it and bake, cut into cubes and refridgerate. Will definately be trying the pumpkin one
* I make a risotto (i posted the recipe a while back i think in the chn's recipe ideas thread). With left over i roll it into bite-size balls in bread crumbs (bread which is suitable for her to eat that is).
*Mini sushi is also a hit - with vegies, tuna, smoked salmon, shredded chicken...Sushi rice and seaweed sheets (buy in coles) - easy to make.
*I make Ella icecreams using soy yogurt poured into the little tupperware iceblock thingies.
*Falafels - you can make your own in bite size portions using the falafel mix from the supermarket and added herbs and spices. I have a good recipe if needed.
* I've also got a recipe for cornflake and sultana biscuits where i substitute the milk with either soy or her prescribed milk and the butter with Nuttelex. She loves them and they don't contain a lot of sugar.
* Oh and I've a recipe for mini fruit muffins (similar to fruit cake) not containing any dairy or nuts - really yummy!
* i've just made Banana and sultana mini muffins as well as:
* potato, chive and zuchini scones (can add tuna, sweet potato, pumpkin, olives....)
* Home-made ravioli with any suitable filling - spinach, tuna, mince, pumpkin or sweet potato. I've a simple pasta recipe for that one too.
Ella also loves just snacking on dried fruit pieces, apricot rolled in coconut balls, chickpeas, olives, peices of ham, fresh or the mini frozen corn on the cob pieces, carrot sticks, sultanas, mini wheats and Cherios (dry cereals) in her snack trap. Raisin toast is a huge hit aswell using Nuttelex to spread on it instead of butter or marg.
Please let me know if you're interested in any recipes and i'll post those too
Oh and Ella only has 7 teeth and has been coping really well with all these foods
