Another Great Allergy Cookbook

Ms. Coss' new cookbook WHAT ELSE IS TO EAT? is just as good, if not better, than her first one! Of course, I headed straight to the dessert sections of the cookbook because that's what I find the most fun to cook (and eat.) There are so many "real" recipes for bread, muffins, cookies and cake. In addition, I really liked the soup recipes that were included in the cookbook as well as many of the chicken ones. The ingredients are all regular, normal, healthy things that I can find at my local grocery store. And, the recipes were for normal foods that my entire family would eat. So often, I find myself cooking something different for my son because none of us want to eat foods that are dairy-, egg-, and nut-free. What I most loved about this book was how quick and simple the recipes are. I'm not a gourmet chef, and I really don't have the time or inclination to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. I thought Ms. Coss' recipes were very do-able and healthy to boot! There were also quite a few slow-cooker recipes which work well with moms' and kids' busy schedules. I can definitely see myself trying out many of the main dish recipes in the next few weeks.

Great For Everyone!!!

As a neighbor of Linda Coss I had the good fortune of being both a "recipe taster" and "recipe tester" for this book. Although no one in my household has food allergies, I can honestly say that I LOVE this cookbook! Some of my favorites include the Orange County Salmon Salad (better than a restaurant salad), Hoisin Chicken, and Family-Style Slow Cooker Chicken. My 10-year-old son regularly asks me to make Jason's 4-Star Brisket and the Sloppy Joe Wraps (a really great choice for after soccer or baseball practice, when we're both starving and I have no time to cook). Of course, we enjoy all of the baked goods, too (although I'm not a baker myself). As a busy single dad I don't have a lot of time to spend in the kitchen. These recipes are fast, easy, and delicious. A big thumbs up!

Simply the BEST allergy cookbook

My son will be 6 years old this summer. His severe milk/egg/nut allergies started when he was 4 mos old. Over the time I bought all of the available allergy cookbooks, and cooked some pretty strange things. I was desperate to make my son a birthday cake, and for years I had to excuse myself and give him either Jello (he hates) or try to make cakes from mixes and cakes made from other cookbooks. The results were always bad, and the look in my son's eyes made me cry. And then one day I found this book. I ordered it, but was not too excited, I did not expect too much. And then for his birthday I decided to make "Orange Chocolate Marble Layer Cake". The cake came out great, and when I was walking into the room full of guests with this beautiful cake with candles, my son was jumping high in the air and screaming: "Look this is my cake! This is MY birthday cake!" I was literally crying and thanking Linda for this wonderful moment. The cake tasted great, there was NONE left after the party! People with "normal" children were asking me for the recipe, could not believe that it was made with no eggs.And from that moment I made almost all of the cakes, cookies, PANCAKES, CHOCOLATE MOUSSE and other dishes and all of them were a success in my house and with my guests. I bought extra copies of this cookbook and gave them as presents to my friends - that is what I think of this book. If you have a child with those allergies you simply must have it. And, finally, make him a real birthday cake!

Great!

My son (a 1 year old) was diagnosed with food allergies (Egg, Nut, Milk, Fish, ShellFish, Tree-Nut). This cookbook was then only one that I could find that addressed the harder of the three to avoid (milk, nut, and egg). With the help of this cookbook I can now prepare for my son most of his favorite foods! The pancake recipe was a indeed a lifesaver...I could not figure out how to prepare this much loved favorite without the egg and milk...this cookbook solved the problem and he LOVES them! The recipes are realistic and easy to follow. Highest Recommendations!

AH! Real food again!!

I'm a mom of two kids with food allergies. Milk, Egg, and Nuts really only scratch the surface, but finding recipes for tasty meals without even these three is difficult. This cookbook has definently been worth the money I paid for it! There are some recipes that I won't be able to try due to the other allergies we are managing, but of the several that I have tried so far (and more planned!), ALL have been huge successes..including the two dishes I prepared for dinner tonight! Not only do the finished products taste, smell, and look wonderful, but most of the recipes require very little time in the kitchen. Since my children are both toddlers, this is a much welcomed bonus! My kids are the typical picky-eaters, as well, and they've begged for seconds and thirds of most everything I've cooked using this book. I find myself cooking out of this cookbook more and more. Every recipe I've tried has fueled my excitement about trying others found in this cookbook. I HIGHLY recommended this book for everyone, but especially those managing milk, egg, or nut allergies!
