What are some essential things to buy/replace?

What are some things you wish you knew when you first transitioned your kitchen and lifestyle?

Any tips for cleaning/organizing/buying things are greatly appreciated! I know this will be hard for him and I want to do what I can to make it safe.

I do the cooking and work full time with a baby coming shortly, so any tips for easy recipes/lunches/dinners/quick on-the-go breakfasts for him that he can take for an early work shift would be much appreciated, too! I know staples like meat, vegetables, quinoa, rice, potatoes are safe given you don't add unsafe condiments or spices, but my husband is a big foodie and I'd love some ideas for variation/for easy breakfasts and lunches he can have that don't require a ton of prep. He also typically takes dinner leftovers for lunch at work, but this might need to change because I don't know how creative I can get/how much time I will have to be creative to mix up what we have for dinner every night so he isn't having the same food for lunch and dinner every day. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed and my heart breaks that he has to give up his favorite foods, so truly, I will take any advice, tips, or resources to look at. Thank you so, so much 💓

Hi guys! i’m not officially diagnosed (just positive celiac screening), i had my endoscopy 3 days ago in fact, but the point of my post is that my job is currently in small pretzel stall, a small glass box where we make them all from scratch. There’s obviously a lot of airborne particles but i obviously won’t eat anything we sell after diagnosis. Has anybody else been in similar shoes? has anyone else worked in a bakery? will i have to quit?? does inhailing the particles gluten me? in my initial endsocopy consultation appt i asked the doctor this question he looked at me like i have three heads and essentially said if im not eating it its fine but im not sure! he was very dismissive, and i cant stress this is a tiny glass box store where i make everything, the airflow isn’t great in there.
