On the plate: Plain pancake tacos filled with scrambled eggs, strawberries, blueberries and banana, maple syrup left off.

Why it works
- Celiac disease: Pancakes made with a gluten-free flour blend, so everyone eats the same taco.
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.

Add everyone you cook for, with their allergies, diets and ages. Gluten checks this recipe for each of them and tells you what to change for anyone who can’t eat it as written. It’s free.
