I’ve met so many people through allergy support groups that have to deal with being allergic to so many different things.

I often feel grateful that I only deal with a handful of food allergies.

It can be so overwhelming to be allergic to so many foods so I wanted to collect a group of recipes that I have that are free from the Top 8 Allergies that people face.

The recipes below are free from gluten, dairy, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, shellfish, fish, and soy.

They also happen to taste amazing!! They are all recipes that are naturally free from the top 8 allergens or only required some small tweaks.

This helps me to feel like I’m feeding my family more “normal” food that they were used to before food allergies.

Please leave comments below or send me a quick message if you have other food allergies not listed in the top 8 and I will be sure to find some recipes that work for you as well.

I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as my family does!

Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas

I was so excited when I first ran across the idea of slow cooker fajitas. Genius!

Mexican food is such a great candidate for the slow cooker because the typical ingredients in Mexican food have amazing flavor to begin with.

Slow Cooker White Bean Soup

This white bean soup makes a regular appearance at the dinner table in our house. I love it, my husband loves it, and most importantly my toddler loves it! It’s warm, creamy, and super easy to make.

Italian Meatballs

The gluten free, dairy free, and egg free meatballs are amazing! It only takes about 10 minutes to put the meatballs together and then they bake for 20 minutes.

Homemade meatballs in 30 minutes means this just became one of my favorite go to quick meals for busy weeknights!

Falafel

I’m here to tell you that Falafel is something you NEED in your life! It is bursting with flavor and has a crispy outside and soft inside that just makes it so delicious.

Serve this on your favorite pita bread, with some quinoa, or just eat it by itself. It’s that good!

Mexican Beans and Rice

I couldn’t believe how easy this Mexican Beans and Rice recipe came together and I almost always have the ingredients needed on hand.

All you need is some cooked rice, black beans, onion, garlic, tomatoes, limes, a little vegan butter, and seasonings. Super easy and super healthy.

Creamy Shepherds Pie

I was so happy with how this shepherds pie recipe turned out. It’s creamy, meaty, and the best kind of comfort food.

Really the best part about the whole recipe is that it’s an allergy friendly delicious meal that I can feel good about feeding to my family!

Black Bean Burgers

I have to admit I was a black bean burger skeptic, but WOW was I proven wrong! I could not believe the flavor that came from these burgers!

They are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and bursting with flavor.

Avocado Chicken Salad

This Avocado Chicken Salad is so easy to make, super healthy, and extremely delicious!

Serve over some chips to make nachos, or between some bread to make a sandwich, or even even just all by it’s self.

Beef and Bean Chili

This gluten free beef and bean chili was delicious! It was exactly what I was looking for in a good traditional chili.

It’s amazing paired with my cornbread muffins and could be used as a base to make all different kinds of unique chili recipes.

Slow Cooker Chicken Enchilada Soup

Enchiladas are one of my favorite meals ever! I think one of the biggest reasons is because of the enchilada sauce.

I could eat it by the spoonful! So imagine how excited I was to come across the idea of enchilada soup. I get to eat enchilada sauce by the spoonful and not have my husband look at me strange!
