Free Recipes For Children With Food Allergies

If your child suffers from food allergies, you may have experienced a great deal of anxiety regarding what they can and cannot eat. Food allergies range from mild to severe and can be triggered by a variety of different foods. The FDA names the eight most common foods to cause allergies as follows: eggs, milk, soy, wheat, tree nuts, peanuts, fish and shellfish. If your child is allergic to any of these foods, or other foods for that matter, you may be searching for free recipes for children with food allergies.

One great place to start your search is the Internet. Here you can find all kinds of free recipes of all sorts for your allergic child. Some children who are allergic to popular foods like wheat, milk, eggs and peanuts may feel deprived. It doesn't have to be that way, however. There are lots of fun recipes for foods that kids love. For example, there are plenty of great recipes for flourless cookies and cakes. If your child is allergic to peanuts but not tree nuts (there is a difference) there are products you can buy like Nutella that has the consistency and flavor of peanut butter but is made from a different substance.

The most important thing when searching for recipes is to make sure none of the ingredients contain the allergic substance or are prepared in a factory where the allergic substance is used. For example, a product that does not contain peanuts may have been packaged in a facility where peanuts are handled and therefore must be avoided. When cooking for your child think of handy substitutes that are similar to the original ingredient. For example, a lactose intolerant child may be able to handle soy milk which tastes very similar to dairy milk.

Another fantastic place to find free recipes for children with food allergies is the library. There are plenty of cookbooks to check out, including the following titles: The Whole Foods Allergy Cookbook: Two Hundred Gourmet and Homestyle Recipes for the Food Allergic Family by Cybele Pascal and The Complete Food Allergy Cookbook: The Foods You've Always Loved Without the Ingredients You Can't Have by Marilyn Gioannini. Books like these are chock full of healthy, safe recipes that your whole family can enjoy!
