Food Allergy
2 year old just diagnosed with mild milk allergy
My 2 year old daughter has been getting a monthly fever since July. There have never been any other symptoms until this month. She was diagnosed with tonsilitis today, She was also diagnosed with a mild milk and gluten allergy. The doctor thinks that the milk is causing reflux causing the tonsilitis. I've removed milk from her diet, but she is a fussy eater and I'm at a loss as to what I am going to feed her now. Any advice or suggestions?

Glad that's all that's popped up. I'd definitely consult with an allergist in that case. It's just very atypical for a milk allergy. All the best to you!
And sorry, I guess I could have been more helpful on the food ideas. Baked milk is generally better-tolerated in kids that can have small amounts of milk. This would mean in baked goods like muffins and such. My DS also loves soy yogurt. I think that Stonyfield makes the best - 6 pack with strawberry/peach. That's always a win for us. He's eaten soy cheese but it's not my favorite. For a treat, there's a brand of ice cream that's made with coconut milk that's pretty yummy. (The brand escapes me but most groceries carry it.)
Amy's makes a delicious frozen dairy free mac and cheese!
Our LO also likes grilled cheese made with tofutti slices. The tofutti ice creams are pretty tasty too.
