Savoury Herby Soda Bread
It seems to me that savoury bakes and snacks can be harder to make and source if you avoid things like eggs, milk, sesame and nuts. Maybe that’s because I’ve become more and more adept at creating …
Egg-free Vegetarian Christmas Stuffing
Stuffing is an essential part of Christmas lunch but it so often contains egg, nuts or other allergens (or meat and so I avoid it!). This year we’re having Christmas at home and I wanted to make so…
Pancake Day
Pancake day seems to be quite an event these days, but its a bit of a no-no if you are dairy and egg free. Surely its not possible to make a good pancake when two of the crucial ingredients are mis…
Super-duper Amazingly Gooey Flapjacks
Flapjacks are a great standby for the dairy/egg/nut allergic household. When other people can produce some shop bought cereal bar for their kids, I was always lacking in options. There came a time …
Beans in sleeping bags (not quite sausage rolls)
Picnic food is quite a challenge if you’re dairy-free. The sandwich options are fairly limited – ok, if you eat meat there are easy options like ham. But if you don’t and can̵…
Lucky Clover Cookies
It may still be March, but the weather today looks perfect for a trip to the beach. As I’ve mentioned before, picnics are very hard if you are egg/dairy/nut-free. It’ll be sandwiches, c…
A Class Above Potato Salad
Yet more salads! I’ve always had a fondness of potato salad that I can’t really explain – gloopy cold potatoes anyone? This version can be easily made either dairy and egg free or…
So it’s Easter Weekend…
Easter is a bit different for us, in a household where the children are dairy-free, egg-free and nut-free. All my children’s friends are overdosing on milk chocolate eggs, and decorating the …
Chocolate Easter Biscuits
So, with the lack of actual Easter Eggs in this house I decided to make some chocolate biscuits in the shape of eggs. I didn’t have a relevant cookie cutter so made do with cutting round a ca…
Giraffe Salad
No, not made of Giraffes, just from the restaurant chain! We had an unusual Easter Sunday… A very early morning Easter egg hunt (luckily the Easter Bunny had visited) followed by a day out wi…
Almond Sandies
So it’s Easter Monday and we spent the day with my mum and step-dad. My mum doesn’t eat chocolate so I made a batch of these nutty delights to give as an easter egg replacement. The ori…
Birthday Cakes (always a challenge with no butter and no eggs)
I’ve just downloaded masses of photos from my phone and come across a few birthday cake photos. If you have a child with a dairy/egg/nut allergy then a shop bought birthday cake is simply not…
Sainsbury’s, this time you did impress (ice lollies part II)
As I’ve mentioned before, Sainsbury’s is normally a complete nightmare to shop in if you are dairy, egg and nut-free, with a complete lack of (or even non existence of) choice in a lot …
Ginger Snaps
Ginger snaps are lovely biscuits, and while McVitie’s Ginger Nuts are a great dairy, egg and nut free standby, sometimes it’s nicer to have homemade. This version doesn’t have any…
Home-made Egg-free Pasta
I always wanted to make some home-made pasta – I even gave D a pasta machine a few years ago as a birthday present, but somehow it never saw the light of day until today. There always seem to…
