Pizza and Calzones: Gyroll | Submitted By: Adam Pack

Well-seasoned lamb meat, along with feta cheese, zucchini and black olives, gets sealed into pizza dough and baked until golden. This mess-less version of a gyro sandwich substitutes pizza dough for the much harder-to-make pita bread.

As we saw in earlier parts of this article, there are many different kinds of food allergies. The "big eight" list of known allergens should not prevent anyone from enjoying the food they eat. We have looked at some recipes for cookies that are appropriate for the Christmas holidays but can be used all year long. The last cookie recipe in this series will be the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies that follows. Some ideas for other foods that can be served to avoid other allergies will follow this recipe.

Peanut-free Diet for those with allergies to all kinds of nuts, as well as foods that may contain "peanut protein" or oil from nuts. Foods with these ingredients should be prevented for consumption if you happen to have people who have peanut allergies. It has been discovered that "soy nut" is the best substitute for food preparation, which is free from peanut. A soy nut does not belong to the "nut" family since the term is coined for soybeans that are drenched and baked for a crispier taste. There are a lot of peanut-free recipes you can prepare. To name a few of peanut-free recipes are (1) Soy Nut Butter Cookies and (2) Tofu Pie made from Soy Nut and Bananas and (3) Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup margarine

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup soft (silken) tofu

1/2 tsp vanilla

1 1/2 cups flour

3/4 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 cup peanut butter

1 cup chocolate chips

PREPARATION:

Pre-heat the oven to 400F degrees.

In a large bowl, add together the margarine, sugar and brown sugar and mix until creamy. Add the tofu and vanilla and whisk until smooth and creamy.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda and salt.

Add to the margarine mixture and combine well. Add the peanut butter and mix well, then fold in the chocolate chips. Roll the dough into 1 inch balls and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 5 to 8 minutes, until cookies are golden brown.

Milk-free Diet is for those with a milk allergy, which is an allergic response of the immune system when an individual has consumed one or more proteins acquired from cow's milk. If you are allergic to milk, you should not consume foods or beverages which contain milk, butter, different types of cheese, and sour creams. Some of the dairy-free recipes which you may want to prepare are: (1) Potato Soup, which is homemade; (2) Grilled Salmon or Shrimp, which is marinated and then grilled; (3) Pecan snack; and (4) Spaghetti with No Red Sauce.

As we have seen, it should not be boring to eat for people with food allergies. It does, however, take a lot of creativity and resourcefulness so that a person with food allergies can eat the foods that they want using different food substitutes. It can be done and all it takes is some beforehand time and preparation to make delicious treats that will not affect the person who is allergy prone.
