Kids’ plate: Egg and Mushroom Tacos
On the plate: Soft herbed eggs with browned mushrooms in warm corn tortillas; yogurt on the side.
Make it a game: Make a little taco boat and let it carry the mushroom pieces. Add a lime squeeze if you feel like it.
Set it aside at step 3, before the grown-ups’ sauce or spice goes on.
Why it works
- Celiac disease: Gluten-free corn tortillas and gluten-free rice crackers keep the tacos and crunchy topping gluten-free.
- Kid (4–12): Soft eggs and tender mushrooms keep the filling mild and familiar.
Celiac check: watch for hidden gluten in soy sauce, stock, malt vinegar and seasoning blends, and oats that aren’t certified. Gluten gives food ideas, not medical advice: always check labels for allergens and cross-contact.
