Ahhh-pizza. So wonderful, so delicious, so full of tasty goodness, unless you've got food allergies. Now, those with food sensitivies need not dine on bland, tasteless pizza thanks to a great new book by Alice Sherwood.
The Allergy-Free Cookbook has recipes containing no eggs, no dairy, no nuts, and no gluten. It's loaded with photos and nearly 50 pages of informative information on living with and cooking for someone with food allergies. Sherwood's young son has serious nut and egg allergies and his situation has both inspired and challenged her to create delicious food he can eat. She discusses how having a food allergy can make you feel like your world is turned upside down: favorite foods suddenly out of bounds, dining out or at a friend's house, a potential minefield. In addition to learning how to cook for those with food allergies, Sherwood also emphasizes reaching out for help and support and connecting with others. And anyone without food allergies will also find these recipes tasty and probably won't even know they're eating something "allergy-free". Enjoy!
