Product Description
This cookbook contains both recipes and information for beginners to advanced cooks. If you are brand new to the gluten-free, dairy- free, tree-nut and peanut-free and egg-free cooking and baking, you are most likely overwhelmed. To be overwhelmed and even frightened by the myriad of complexities is normal. The more you read and the more you practice in the kitchen; the easier it will become.One way that this cookbook can help you is to give you new and valuable information. I would guess that most readers are not familiar with the history of food allergies even if you have been dealing with food allergies for decades. As a person with anaphylactic tree nut and coconut allergies, I have lived a life of food allergies personally, but I did not have a clue about the history of food allergies until I found references in our local medical library. A Brief History of Food Allergies, which is included in this book on page 19, gives most people room for pause and exploration depending upon their individual state of health. * Over 225 original and tested recipes. * Cookbook contains over 100 pages of information that deals with special diet issues. * How to save money on expensive products and ingredients. * How to save time when baking for people with food allergies and special allergy ingredients and kitchen tools that can be purchased to make life easier.The topics covered in Part One of this book include: * The Role of Nutrition in Food Allergies * Food Allergies in Infants and Children * A Brief History of Food Allergies * Special Diets & Celiac Disease * Avoiding Common Food Allergens * Special Ingredients & Products * Technical Know-How for Special Cooking * Saving Time & Money * Where to Purchase Pasta, Flours & Other Ingredients * Rotation Diets & Food Families * Meal Ideas

Best rotation diet ideas ever October 11, 2008

This cookbook is great. My daughter is on a rotation diet and it is impossible to find recipies that are varied and do not contain rice flour. This cookbook has recipies that uses many different flours and the results are amazing. I love how she adds club soda to her bread recipies and how it makes the flour so light and fluffy. The pig in the blanket recipe is a family favorite. If you have a child with intolerances or allergies buy this book.
We love this cookbook! August 11, 2008

This cookbook has been a lifesaver for our family. Our son has autism and is on a gluten/casein-free diet and our daughter is gluten intolerant. There are plenty of GFCF cookbooks out there and we did okay with finding meals that they could eat.
Then, our baby was diagnosed with food allergies to peanuts, tree nuts, and eggs, and that changed everything! I tried baking GFCF desserts without eggs and had one disaster after the other. I eventually found a few things that worked, but I still needed more recipes.
I was thrilled to discover this cookbook because it addresses all of our allergies. I've made many recipes from it, and every single one so far has been a hit with the kids. We've enjoyed the main dishes (the General Tso's Chicken is amazing!), the snack mixes are great, and the desserts are delicious. I'd given up on trying to make brownies without wheat or eggs, but there are two brownie recipes in this book, and they're both incredible.
I've recommended this cookbook to many people. The only thing I'd point out is that some of the recipes call for Bragg's Liquid Aminos, which we don't use, or, alternately, soy sauce. Regular soy sauce has wheat in it, so it's important to look for wheat-free Tamari Soy Sauce, if avoiding wheat or gluten.

My son has autism and has been on a gluten/casein free diet for over 5 years. His tactile problems are getting better and now it's time for me to cook him new foods (finally!). So, I got The Super Allergy Girl Cookbook and it's great. My son is also allergic to all nuts, with a deadly allergy to peanuts.
This book would make a great gift to a friend or relative that has a special needs child on the gluten/casein free diet!
Great Recipes and Lots of Information April 5, 2008

This cookbook was written by my wife, who not only has food allergies herself, but is raising three children with multiple food allergies. Over the course of several years of dealing with these food allergies, she compiled a wealth of information about food allergies, special diets, special ingredients and many useful tips and tricks. There are over 100 pages of information as well as over 225 recipes that are all gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free and nut-free. Most are also soy-free and yeast-free. All are kid-tested!
