Celebrating foods allergen-free & more

egg free

This Mexican fiesta dip consists of homemade lime-infused refried black beans smothered with guacamole, salsa, corn, cheese, tomatoes, olives, and jalapeños.

While Joel was teaching food allergy safety at each of the Johnson & Wales campuses, he had the pleasure of meeting Chef Mark at the Charlotte, North Carolina campus.

Crispy avocado tacos with black beans and sweet ‘n tangy slaw take taco night to a whole new level.
The secret to these tacos is the crunchy and creamy avocado wedges.

Whether it’s a Cinco de Mayo celebration or you’ve volunteered for an appetizer and you don’t have hours to spend in the kitchen, you’ll be glad you made this dip.

We’re pleased to introduce you to Chef Mark Allison, the chef that created healthy recipes on the set of films such as Star Wars, Cars 3, The Incredibles 2, and Beauty and the Beast
We first developed this recipe for Allergic Living magazine and we’re excited to be able to share it with you.

Strawberry Milk

Allergy Free Strawberry Milk Recipe

free of top 8 allergens

This homemade strawberry milk is full of fresh fruit and velvety smoothness. What a fun addition to any breakfast, brunch or afternoon treat, and a hit for kids of all ages.

It’s simple to make with only 4 ingredients, and no artificial colors, flavors, dyes…or dairy. Read more to see what’s in the top brands of strawberry milk on our grocery shelves. One thing’s for sure…zero strawberries.

We suggest buying organic when it comes to strawberries, since this red, juicy fruit has a soft, seedy skin, which allows for easier absorption of pesticides. Many of these pesticides penetrate the skin and cannot be rinsed off.

By the way, for the third year running, strawberries top the Environmental Working Group’s (EWG) Dirty Dozen™ list for produce containing the most pesticide residues. How much is that? Check it out, cause you won’t believe it!

Melange of Artichokes, Beans and Kale

By

Your Allergy Chefs Melanage Of Artichokes Beans And Kale Recipe

free from gluten and the top 8 food allergens

This mélange of artichokes, beans and kale will electrify your taste buds.

Rather than calling it a soup or stew, we like mélange. After all, it’s not really a soup, but a healthy medley of beans and vegetables served with a super sauce!

This recipe begins with béchamel, a classic mother sauce made with milk, heavy cream, butter and wheat flour. To make it allergy-friendly and vegan, we use rice milk, Earth Balance and sweet white rice flour, adding a touch of Dijon style mustard to create the small sauce called… mustard sauce.

Fit for a fine dining restaurant, yet easy to make at home…You’re gonna love it!
