Welcome!

My daughter, Jazlyn, is anaphylactic to egg, dairy, peanuts, and tree nuts. When she was first diagnosed, I found it very difficult to find recipes and foods that didn't taste like "allergy" food. Over the last 15 years I have had a lot of fun developing and changing recipes so that they are safe for her. I love to share my recipes so that other families can realize how yummy "allergy" foods can taste. You don't have to sacrifice taste or your favorite foods, you just have to rethink how to make them. I made a promise to Jazzy that I would do my very best to find a way for her to eat any food she wants to try. So far I have been able to keep that promise. I hope your family enjoys these recipes as much as we do.

Pepperoni Garlic Drop Biscuits

My go to recipe for biscuits is our Drop Biscuits. If we want something a little different or with some extra flavor, I made these Pepperoni Garlic Drop Biscuits. They are perfect with spaghetti. My girls can't get enough of them.




Pepperoni Garlic Drop Biscuits

2 1/4 cup Bisquick baking mix
2/3 cup soy milk
Pepperoni to taste (I use about 30 slices cut into fourths)
Garlic powder or garlic salt to taste (I use 1 tbsp garlic salt)

Thoroughly combine all of the ingredients. Drop by spoonful onto a foil lined baking sheet. Bake at 450 for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
*  The biscuits pretty much retain the shape they are placed it. If you want prettier biscuits like the midde and bottom pictures, smooth out the biscuit mounds first before baking.
*  This recipe makes about 13 biscuits, depending on the size you make them. However, you can easily double or triple this recipe.
*  If you want more of a garlic flavor, you can brush the hot biscuits with melted dairy free margarine mixed with garlic salt or garlic powder.
