Question about cooking and allergies.

[kyrielle]

I know some of those reading this journal cook, and some have food issues, and I'm hoping you can help me. One of my relatives must now avoid both wheat gluten and dairy products. She's lived her whole life cooking for a normal diet without these restrictions, and she's trying to find alternatives and good recipes.

Anyone have any good recipes, especially ones that substitute for things like bread/pasta/etc.? I'm sure I could do a search and turn up tons of recipes, but I would have no clue whether they were good or not.

I'll check through my cards when I get home. I cook an entirely gluten-free Thanksgiving every year for a friend who is Celiac, though I don't always do dairy-free too. I'm sure I've got some recipes that may be appropriate. =) Also, check tyche out -- she's Celiac as well, and does a lot of cooking. I think she's posted recipes publically, but if she hasn't I'm sure she belongs to some communities on LJ where you could find some.

Thank you - on both counts. Not only has she posted them pubically, she has wonderfully handy tags! :)
