Kids’ plate: Pork ramen noodle bowls
On the plate: Mild pork, rice noodles, soft bok choy, corn and grated carrot in a little broth.
Make it a game: Make a noodle path through the bowl and let the corn be tiny stepping stones. Take each noodle at your own pace.
Set it aside at step 3, before the grown-ups’ sauce or spice goes on.
Why it works
- Hashimoto's thyroiditis: Pork, rice noodles and vegetables make the broth, with no soy, dairy or legumes.
- Gluten-free: Gluten-free rice ramen noodles and fresh ingredients keep wheat, barley and rye out.
- Low-histamine: Fresh pork, vegetables, ginger and chives season a broth without citrus, vinegar or fermented sauces.
- Kid (4–12): Mild rice noodles, pork, corn and tender vegetables make an easy-to-lift bowl.
- Toddler (1–3): Soft vegetables, short noodles and small thin pork pieces make a simple bowl.
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.
