    Whole Foods Allergy Cookbook: 200 Gourmet & Homestyle Recipes for the Food Allergic Family

    Author: Cybele Pascal

    The Whole Foods Allergy Cookbook is an important health resource for you and your family. Here, for the first time, is a comprehensive recipe book that eliminates the top eight food allergens as identified by the Food and Drug Administration.

    There is no need to miss out on nutrition, variety, or flavor - even if you can't tolerate certain foods. These recipes include all of the foods you can eat, and they will reward you with the added benefits of improved health and great taste.

    Library Journal

    A lifelong enthusiastic cook, Pascal had to change how she thought about food completely when her four-month-old son was diagnosed with severe food allergies. This book is the result, containing more than 200 recipes that are free of the eight most common allergenic ingredients: dairy, egg, wheat, soy, peanut, tree nut, fish, and shellfish. Anyone following a vegan diet will also find this a valuable resource for baked goods since all of the breads, cookies, and cakes are dairy- and egg-free. It is not a specifically vegetarian cookbook, though, as it contains recipes for comfort foods like Chicken Potpie and Lamb Stew. There are recipes for every occasion, whether it's for Chocolate Layer Cake or Homemade Granola Bars. Most important, the author understands how real families shop, cook, and eat and offers suggestions on how to adapt to the food-allergic lifestyle. Of particular value are the lists of foods to keep on hand, what to buy at the grocery store, and a list of great mail and Internet resources. Highly recommended for public libraries.-Wendy Bethel, Southwest Public Libs., Grove City, OH Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
