Allergen-Friendly Cooking
Support food allergies with this delicious, allergen-friendly class!
Food allergies are on the rise and their prevalence affects us all. Even if you don’t have a food allergy, you probably know someone who does, or must follow certain dietary restrictions at the office or at schools to keep other people safe.
Cooking allergen-friendly food doesn’t have to be difficult or stressful – you can learn to cook with ingredients that help with allergy symptoms and how to make recipes you can eat with confidence.
Join me for a delicious culinary nutrition experience, where you’ll discover how food can play a role in allergy relief, how your immune system and digestive tract are involved, as well as learn how to create delicious allergen-friendly recipes.
All of the recipes are:
gluten-free
dairy-free
nut-free
wheat-free
soy-free
peanut-free
egg-free
corn-free
vegan
You will walk away from this workshop with:
