Hives in the Kitchen

Welcome! We are a homeschooling family in Texas- so we've never been normal by any standards- but with the addition of our third little one, we have entered into the overwhelming and really unfun world of food allergies. Our little girl is allergic to egg white, wheat, soy, dairy, peanuts, sesame seeds, bananas, avocados, pineapples, melons, tree nuts, coconuts, flax seeds, quinoa, and sunflower seeds. This is our life as we stave off starvation and try to maintain sanity.

Allergy Free Cookbook Fun

I've mentioned the Allergen Free Baker's Handbook which is a favorite. But I'm now armed with 3 others that I'll be trying out in the upcoming months. Here's my new lineup:

Fresh From Elizabeth's Kitchen-These recipes are gluten free but contain some information on substitutions for some recipes.
Free for All Cooking-These recipes are gluten free and offer dairy and egg free alternatives as well as other allergy-free substitutions that can be made.
Cooking for Isaiah-These recipes are all gluten and dairy free but many contain other big allergens. I'll be making substitutions where I can and we'll see where that takes me.
