Product Description
Now, with Feeding Your Allergic Child, there's a solution to the dilemma of what to prepare for the food-sensitive child. Elisa Meyer's creative, fun, and delicious recipes will get your kids to eat, and keep them happy and healthy at the same time. These nutritious dishes will tempt even the most finicky child, while avoiding the four ingredients kids are most frequently allergic to: corn, wheat, dairy, and eggs. They can also be modified for other food allergies. A complete section on how to tell if your child is allergic and tips on coping with the challenges of feeding an allergic child introduces the recipes. Free of the chemical additives and artificial flavorings of prepackaged and processed foods, the dishes in Feeding Your Allergic Child will make your kitchen table a happier and healthier place to be and will show you how to put your food-sensitive child on the road to healthy eating - and living.

Format:Paperback
I was very disappointed by this book. The author seems to be able to manage recipes which deal with only one allergy at a time as opposed to multiple allergies. I was also very concerned by the continuous use of almonds in the recipes - most people with food allergies avoid nuts and it is not a good idea to give nuts to small children.

This is a great book! Parents & friends of children with allergies will feel that they have an ally in author Elisa Meyer, who has two allergic children of her own. The recipes are delicious, imaginative, and within your reach--try the salads, the soups, and of course, the cookies!--it's all great. Whether you're just realizing you have allergies to cope with, or you're looking for some new things to try, this practical, direct, and fun cookbook is a gem.

Good resource for substitutions
31 Jan 2000
Format:Paperback
This book has helped the most when I need a substitution or need help reading labels for all the many names which food allergens hide under. In this respect, I think the book is the best. I did find the authors writing style to be somewhat offensive to those of us who are entering the cooking scene. She has a way of making readers feel bad for not homecooking every morsel our children ingest. Also, I found that many of the main and side dish recipes were pretty standard fare. Like I stated earlier though, her substitution list and label names under which the allergens are hiding is very helpful as I read labels at the supermarket. I find alot of prepared products which are allergy free for my child by reading labels carefully and the lists and resources in this book are indispensible for that purpose.

Excellent book, funny, informative and the food is great!
19 Aug 1999
Format:Paperback
A particularly good book for parents who are just starting to diagnose and/or attempt to deal with a child's allergies. The author has crammed this book full of helpful advice and references as well as delicious and easy recipes that kids (and adults) enjoy. Recipes for basic items like baking powder and ketchup are included. This is one of the three books we recommend to other parents of kids with food allergies.

Nice but not enough
22 Jan 2000
Format:Paperback
It's not a bad start for feeding kids with allergies, but it didn't go very far. We can't have almonds, so many recipes didn't work for us. Moreover, there wasn't even a hint at the broad range of ethnic foods which might be great to try.
