RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am a mother of a 9 year old son who has a dairy (specifically milk proteins) & citrus food intolerance. I also have a 21 month old toddler who has a 60% chance of displaying the same allergies. This necessitated finding a site where I could find allergy free recipes. I have always read recipes for fun, so I really enjoy this site.
My family embarked on a healthy eating plan (Theresa's Slimming) and am pleased to report that we all weigh less (except the baby - that would be a problem!). I'm feeling & looking much better. At least her plan feeds the mind & body as comfort food & chocolates are part of the weekly menu. Thanks Theresa!
