Favorite Cookbook

With my many allergies, I have learned to adapt many of my favorite recipes through taste. Same as when you stop eating beef or pork and only eat chicken, turkey, and fish, like I do. You find yourself experimenting with stuff. I have learned to make a mean smothered turkey chops, macaroni and cheese, and smothered chicken. However, when I can't figure stuff out ( still having problems with bread :) ), I turn to this cookbook. Cooking Free by Carol Fenster, Ph.D.. She is also the author of Wheat-Free Recipes and Menus. Cooking Free is a terrific cookbook for those that have multiple allergies like me. I do change a few things in some recipes (like the cornbread - I modified it because we like cream corn in it), but most are really good. The flour blend on page 276 is good for many. I like to use cornstarch and garbanzo/fava bean in mine. You can twik things to fit your taste, but do buy this book if you are just starting out.
