The Food Allergy News Cookbook

By Munoz-Furlong and Anne Muñoz-Furlong

The only "cure" for a food allergy is to avoid the food completely. This means reading labels on all foods every time you buy them, using separate utensils specifically for preparing allergy-free foods -- in other words, a whole new way of shopping and cooking.But avoiding food allergy reactions doesn't have to be plagued with frustration. The Food Allergy News Cookbook provides helpful tidbits on organizing the kitchen and dozens of recipes for all meals of the day, from breakfast to dinner to snacks that avoid eggs, nuts, gluten, and other common allergens.

Helpful

Got this because my husband and daughter both have milk allergy and wheat allergy. This is great to search by food you want to eliminate and easy to follow.

nice selection of recipes

Easy to make recipes and a wide selection. So far, every recipe I've tried has been good. As with any allergy cook book, there will be recipes using an item you may have an allergy to. In some cases they give substitutions for various ingredients to a particular recipe.

Great cookbook even for people without foode allergies!

This cookbook has very imaginative, easy recipes that are better tasting than what you find in many standard cookbooks. While I agree with the reader who calls it a "dessert cookbook", preparing main courses for someone with food allergies is much easier, ie I don't cook fish dishes because my daughter has a fish allergy. However finding baking recipes without eggs or nuts is much more difficult. This book does an excellent job and you never feel as though you are compromising.

The GOLD standard of food allergy cookbooks!

Being a parent of a child with multiple food allergies, I found this book to be very helpful. I was able to make special treats for my child who normally would miss out on birthdays/holidays. This book is the GOLD standard for food allergy cookbooks and should be kept in a handy place in the kitchen.

Keep this in the kitchen!

Anyone who has struggled to cook within the boundaries of food allergies will benefit greatly from this cookbook. Alternative ingredients can be expensive, so this book can save the reader a great amount of money and frustration in the pursuit of the tasty final product! It is a wonderful resource for the cooking challenged like myself!
