I'm really excited that your recipes don't use any strange ingredients like some of the other cookbooks I've bought – it's all things I have on hand..
– L. Newman, Clarksville, Maryland

It was a relief to find your book and find answers to the question of what to cook for three meals a day and snacks. I have tried many recipes for our family. We especially like the Seasoned Baked Chicken, Easy Winter Potatoes, and Herbed Oven Roasted Potatoes. I also appreciate that your recipes are made of "real food."
– N. Dilley, Minneota, Minnesota

Simple recipes...fantastic results. And the S'Mores Bars are the single best baked good I have ever made.
– H. Pasternak, Lexington, Massachusetts

Thank you so much for creating such wonderful, healthy and DELICIOUS recipes. They are all simple to prepare, with easy to find ingredients. Your cookbook has made my life of managing a life-threatening food allergy so much easier. Thank you for providing us with some variety at the dinner table! – E. Sperling, Mission Viejo, California

Your book has brought a love of food to my son.
– E. Sullivan, Sandwich, Massachusetts

My husband, who does not have any food allergies, prefers your recipes to the ‘regular’ ones and recently said, 'Why would anyone eat anything else but these!'
– S. Waynick, St. Charles, Illinois

Ben, 6 years old, helped me make your chocolate chocolate chip cookies. Absolutely delicious, even for those without food allergies! Ben didn't want to take the last one to school today for a snack because he wanted to 'save it for Christmas' (which is over 2 months away)!

This book has changed our lives and become our 'cookbook bible'! We use your recipes almost daily. I've even purchased copies for friends, so they can have a fun recipe to try when we come over for dinner.
– J. Smith, Picton, Australia

I never knew my food-allergic son could eat such a variety of food. I have looked at other "allergy" cookbooks, and none compare. These recipes are so delicious and easy!
– L. Schoneck, Orlando, Florida

Thank you for a great cookbook. You've changed the quality of life for our family.
– L. Lindgren, Minneapolis, Minnesota

My 2-1/2 year old daughter has multiple food allergies and your recipes have allowed her to enjoy so many foods that I was afraid she would never be able to have. A few of our favorites are the Oatmeal Cookies, the Potato Latkes and the Turkey Meatballs.
– D. Mello, Pleasanton, California

This book is so USED at our house that big chunks are coming out of the binding!
– E. Oswald, Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota

This cookbook has changed my life! I never want my son to feel different and left out, and now he does not have to. The recipes are good enough for people who do not have food allergies – no one can tell the food is egg-, dairy-, and nut-free unless I tell them.
– M. Pelletier, Lancaster, Massachusetts

I love your cookbook! It has a lot of recipes that have become weekly staples in our house. We all love the desserts and the pancakes! It is one of the only cookbooks I have found that has very easy, normal ingredients to use and the recipes are very good.
– D. Price, Chicago, Illinois

Anyway just wanted to thank you for such a comprehensive book – well done. You have certainly made my life easier, especially when it comes to parties and entertaining.
– J. Roche, Sydney, Australia

I use your cookbook on a weekly basis!
– W. Saltz, Scottsdale, Arizona

Not only are the recipes FANTASTIC (especially the chocolate chip cookies), but I feel like I have a "support network" each time I pull out and use this cookbook.
– J. Patturelli, Haverhill, Massachusetts

I can honestly say that our whole family has enjoyed every recipe I have tried thus far. The doctor is fairly sure my son will outgrow the milk and egg allergies, but I will continue using this cookbook because the food is really good.
– J. LaSpina, Collegeville, Pennsylvania

Your book changed the way I felt about the news of my son's allergies. It gave me great and tasty options, and, most importantly, hope for my son's future. It made me realize that he is going to be able to be a normal kid.
– A. Peterson, Northbrook, Illinois

I love how simple and super-yummy the recipes are. It's such a relief to know I'm feeding my son things that are safe and healthy.
– R. Jensen, Kaysville, Utah

I was ecstatic to be able to give my son a real birthday cake, one like he always asked me for – not a "kind of a cake, because poor Miguel has allergies," or a flat almost inedible "thing." I had tears in my eyes when I had it all decorated and everybody was oohing and aahing over it, and my son was squealing with delight. Thank you!
– P. Navid, Barcelona, Spain

Your cookbook has been amazing, and I even get asked by non-allergy people for the recipes. We especially love "Jason's Chocolate Cookies" and the "Orange Teriyaki Marinated Flank Steak." I hope you are working on a second book!
– M. Carley, Flower Mound, Texas

Cooking for a child with food allergies is such a challenge, but these recipes help me to get a grin every time. I can't imagine living without this book! Thank you! – D. Mollohan, Bidwell, Ohio I am so excited to finally have a food allergy cookbook with recipes that actually turn out to be edible and delicious! – J. Tygard, Sparks, Nevada I love your book! You have great recipes for allergic kids. – R. Cati, Boston, Massachusetts

I had Easter dinner at my home this year for my entire family, and everything was from your book. All of my guests loved the food! The best part was seeing my little boy with cake and frosting all over his face. I never thought I would be able to make the good desserts everyone else enjoys, but truly your recipes have been a blessing.
– D. Trentwood, Knoxville, Tennessee

Your book is by far the BEST cookbook out there. I like it because you are one of the few authors that put together recipes with things you can purchase at the "normal" grocery store. The meals are great.
– A. Hofmann, Severna Park, Maryland

I have an 18-month old daughter whom I am still breastfeeding, so we both need to be on the same diet. The cake and cookie recipes have really come in handy – everyone who comes to visit likes the baking.
– P. Blundell, Christchurch, New Zealand

Thank you for providing some much-needed variety. It's really nice to have new foods periodically, and even more wonderful when the whole family can enjoy them!
– J. Bauer, Lansing, Michigan

With your cookbook I am able to make delicious food we can all enjoy.
– S. Koger, Arvada, Colorado

My allergenic 18-month old loves your pancake recipes. He now goes right up to the freezer, pulls out his bag of frozen pancakes and hands it to me whenever he wants a snack!
– D. Fetterman, Martinez, California

Baking with my son was something I figured I wouldn't do much of until I bought your book. Now he can have virtually the same treats as all his other friends at preschool. Plus, the Lake Forest Sweet & Savory Chicken and Maple Glazed Vegetables are two of my all-time favorite recipes!
– J. Yingling, Sacramento, California

My husband and son are both unable to eat milk and egg, so cooking is a real challenge. They especially like your bread, cake and cookie recipes. The pancakes and waffles were also a real hit!
– S. Henery, Columbus, Ohio

We love your oatmeal cookie recipe, just tried the gingerbread cookies and loved them too! I don't own any other cookbook that I have consistently liked all of the recipes I've tried inside.
– J. Jablon, West Norriton, Pennsylvania

My daughter loves your recipes so much that yours is the only cookbook we are using. Our 2-1/2 year old failure to thrive Reflux kid with severe allergies is actually starting to gain weight using your recipes. Thank you!
– S. Bishop, Long Island, New York

My husband is a Certified Executive Chef, and he also enjoys the dishes that I make from your book!

My mouth was literally watering while reading the recipes!
– L. Lawicki, Lake Forest, California

The chocolate chip cookies are a staple in our home, and the egg-free latkes have been declared by everyone in my family as "even better than grandma's!" I don't know what I'd have done without your cookbook. I had a dangerously underweight child, who is now in the 16th percentile thanks to your recipes.
– J. Rosman, Cleveland, Ohio

I made your Frosted Maple Drops and everyone including my daughter loves them. I also made your pancakes for breakfast and they were the best.
– L. Jackson, Sydney, Australia

My 7-year-old food-allergic son has always wanted to have waffles, just like his 12-year-old sister. Thanks to your book he got to eat waffles for the first time, and he loved them!
– L. Thompson, Brooklyn, New York

Your cookbook, as the teenagers say, RULES! The recipes are, as promised, tasty, delicious, and dairy/egg/nut free. Everyone at our neighborhood block party raved about the raisin bars, and the dilled cucumber and bay shrimp salad was even a hit with my 2-1/2 year old son! Thanks again for a wonderful guide to good food in the world of food allergies.
– D. Rossetti, Maple Valley, Washington

My 16 year old son was recently diagnosed with dairy allergy. This cookbook sure makes things a lot easier. You have so many great recipes!
– D. Hammond, Windsor Locks, Connecticut

We love your cookbook! People love all the things we've made from it (especially the desserts)! We've recommended your book to friends without any food allergies and they've bought it, since it's also great if you are kosher and looking for nondairy side dishes and desserts.
– M. Smith Katz, Hamden, Connecticut

I have tried many of your recipes and they all taste yummy. My son can't stop eating what I make from your book!
– J. Theodorou, Sydney, Australia

The chocolate cupcakes were as good as – or better than – any other 'normal' chocolate cupcakes I've ever had! I made a batch for my son's preschool class, and his teacher asked for some of the other recipes from the book, so they can make 'safe' things for their cooking projects. – S. Go, Mountain View, California

The more I use your cookbook, the more impressed I am. We use it all the time. I especially find useful the recipe suggestions for a complete meal, as well as the recipe review before each recipe.
– A. Schultze, Cedarburg, Wisconsin

My two-year-old food allergic son had never had cake or cupcakes before we tried your Chocolate Layer Cake with Chocolate Frosting. Wow! You should have seen the look on his face licking the beaters!

My son and I love the Sweet and Sour Turkey Loaf. It's nice to find a food allergy cookbook with main dish, as well as dessert/breakfast recipes. Your book has made our lives so much easier.

We love your cookbook and think it's a lifesaver (literally). I am a pediatrician and also recommend the book to my patients.

My son is now 3 years old and has had food allergies since he was born. I have found it so difficult to make him foods....but now I found this book and it is awesome!
– K. Richards, Boca Raton, Florida

This cookbook rocks! It is the most incredible tool for people who have to work with food allergies – very impressive.
– J. Beauregard, Portsmouth, New Hampshire

I have made the chocolate chip cookies and the S'more bars, and the whole family likes them. I tried the chocolate layer cake for a party – we entertained 100 people, so I made several cakes – and they were a HUGE hit. Thank you so much for the time you invested in this project.
– A. Blackdeer, Madison, Wisconsin

As a mom of a six-year-old daughter with severe food allergies, one of my biggest challenges is providing some variety for meals. Before Linda's book it seemed our daughter had the same meal every breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Now we have choices which the entire family can enjoy.

Reviews

I would expect a milk-free, egg-free, nut-free cookbook to be full of complicated recipes, hard-to-find ingredients, and extensive instructions. Yet what I found with Linda Coss' 'What's to Eat?' was exactly the opposite. Moms of food allergic children will consider 'What's to Eat?' a savior, though the rest of us should not be left out. This is truly on of the best recipe collections I have come across in years, allergen-free or not.
– Alisa Fleming, www.GoDairyFree.com

Allergy-free cooking never tasted this good!
– Allergy & Asthma Today

"What's to Eat?" oozes with the author's pleasure in her kitchen... If you think you or your child has a food allergy, see a doctor. If you want an array of culinary ideas, try Coss' book.

This 'user friendly' book will be a good resource for you and your clients.
