I just had to write a review after getting this book. The only reason I would give it 1 star cause it looks like it has some pretty good recipes in it. This book just like all the others I have read to cook my my allergic child, states the obvious. For example it will say use dairy free chocolate chips, dairy free margarine. The only substitute it changes is the eggs. I was disappointed because I already know these things and could cook just fine. I was hoping by the other reviews that this book really did give me other options. I was wrong!
