Allergy Cooking Class

In my search of Events near me, I stumbled across a cooking class being put on by one of the local Grocery stores.

The class was titled Allergy-Free Cooking, the description said:
Join Stefanie as she discusses products in the store that are allergy-free. Stefanie will also provide numerous allergy-free recipes and demonstrate how to make a few, too. If you are interested in learning more about how to cook without the top 8 most common food allergies (wheat, dairy, peanuts, tree nuts, egg, soy, fish, and shellfish). Please sign-up for this free class!

When I walked into that class there was a large display table covered with allergy-free food items, some of which I had heard of and others I had no idea existed. The demonstration area was prepped and ready to go. The observation table had a packet of recipe's and listings of allergy-free food items.

I took a seat and waited for the class to start. Stefanie arrived with freshly sliced allergy-free bread, which she passed around for everyone to try, it was delish. She then made eggless French Toast, I thought was amazing, my husband didn't like mine when I made it at home. He said the bananas made it too sweet. She also make Mac & Cheese, allergy-free, it didn't do it for me.

I was just so thrilled that there was even a class like this in our area.
