As a mom, I am always looking for great meal and snack options that can be served to my kids and their friends. Of course while my own children don't have any food allergies or sensitivities, some of their friends do. I am always happy to accommodate our menu to cater to these different dietary needs. After all, what kid wants to miss out on eating what everyone else is? To a child, that could feel like a punishment of sorts. It doesn't seem fair, if you ask me.
So in order to make sure everyone will be happy when we have gatherings and playdates, I have a collection of cookbooks that will help me find the perfect recipe that everyone can enjoy. I don't want to leave anyone out.
Recently, I got to check out a great new cookbook, 201 Gluten-Free Recipes for Kids by Carrie S. Forbes. This is a great resource for those who have celiac disease or gluten sensitivities. And the recipes are FUN, too! Here's more about the book:
