Great great great!!

That's the kind of book you want to have when your kid just cannot eat anything. It turned my sad days into very happy and nutritious days!!

Fabulous--It Really Works!

Not only do the recipies come out well, but this book has a glossary of different flours and foods that can be used to substitute for more common foods. If you are new to learning to cooking and baking for food allergies (as I am), you will find this information accessible and invaluable. I bought a few books as soon as we realized how severe my son's food allergies are. In the end, I've only used this one so far.

This is a good buy.

I've now made 4 recipes from this book and all of them have turned out very well, they look and taste very similar to their conventional counterparts. The instructions are easy to follow, the ingredients fairly easy to find and the measurements are good too. So far I can recommend her chocolate chip cookies, the basic muffin recipe, the double chocolate cookies and the double chocolate muffins. I will however say that personally I do not like brown rice flour, which the author uses in nearly every baked good. For whatever reason the brown rice flour I've purchased has been gritty, so I'll probably be using white rice flour in the future instead of the recommended brown rice.

Finally, a good book for multiple allergies!

We have several other food allergy cookbooks, and the recipes are OK. Recipes from books like the "Gluten-Free Gourmet" often require substitutions for milk or eggs and don't turn out as good as they might without those substitutions. The recipes in "Great Foods Without Worry" are written for those with multiple food allergies (wheat, dairy, egg, and nuts) and come out excellent. For the first time (and after four years of trying!) we have baked goods that are safe for our daughter and we feel are actually as good as the "normal" ones. We love this book! Another reviewer mentioned the use of margarine in these recipes. It's true that most margarine brands contain dairy, but not all of them do. Shop around and do some searches and there are a number there are dairy free.

great for food allergies!

Cindy's recipes are fantastic! Not only are they truly delicious, but extremely helpful when dealing with a diet limited by food allergies. Her recipes are the first wheat-free recipes I have tried that aren't taste-free!Something I also found helpful was the fact that almost all the recipes use the same basic ingredients, so once you have a few of the different flours, you can pretty much make almost any reipe in the book. I highly recommend this book!
