Cooking for Kids with Allergies: Over 50 Hand-Picked Recipes from Top Food Bloggers!

Hi, friends! This post has definitely been a long time coming!

Out of all of the requests that I get from readers, by far the most common are pleas from desperate moms who are in search of delicious, easy, family-friendly recipes that are also allergy-friendly. Since I don’t have any allergies to contend with in our family, I am definitely not an expert in this area. And let’s face it: Cooking for Kids with Allergies can be a very difficult task!

That’s why I turned to the greatest resource that I know: my fellow food blogging friends (many of whom have entire websites dedicated to allergy-friendly recipes), and asked them to select a few of their very favorite kid friendly, allergen-free recipes. I have compiled, labeled, and categorized all of these meal ideas in this ultimate resource of Over 50 Family-Friendly (and Allergy-Friendly) Recipes!

A few notes before we get to the good stuff! First, you will notice my abbreviations in parentheses after each recipe. Here’s the code: GF = Gluten Free; DF = Dairy Free; EF = Egg Free; NF = Nut Free; SF = Soy Free. I hope these designations help you peruse the list quickly and easily to find those options that are most appropriate for your family’s needs. BUT!!! Please, please, please read each recipe carefully before you prepare it. As I said, I am not an expert in allergy-free cooking and you just need to double-check that my labels are in fact accurate.

I hope that you find plenty of new recipes that your entire family can enjoy!
