My son is digestively sensitive to dairy and possibly soy. We had him allergy tested to make sure it wasn't an allergy.

At the ped allergist suggested, we have been giving him things with soy in them, in small amounts to see if he can tolerate soy any better than dairy.

Now, his eczema is much worse than it ever was..and i'm thinking that the soy must be the cause.

My problem now is trying to find things for the poor kid to eat!! He eats lots of fruits-bananas, strawberries, blueberries, watermelon..etc. he has eggs for breakfast, and bread and turkey for lunch, and then chicken for dinner.

Any other things that I could try? I feel like there's way more that we could give him, but I'm having a mental block!! does anyone give their LO any type of beans?

Thanks!

Glutano cereal bars

My DD loves beans! I take the black beans, rinse them, and she eats them by the handful. We also do red beans and rice, she eats black-eyed peas (once again just rinse and serve). She eats hummus like it is going out of style, as well as baked beans.

I forgot to ask- does your LO eat fish? DD will eat fried catfish and trout and also loves snowcrab and veggie rolls from our local sushi place. I also had luck getting DD to eat a salmon recipe from weelicious. You should check out her site if you haven't all ready- you can search for dairy free items and then just weed out the items with soy or make substitutions.
