Eat Dairy Free is intended for those who either have to avoid dairy due to allergy, or who choose to avoid dairy for health and wellness reasons. The recipes are beautiful and vibrant, printed on glossy paper and in full colour. The book touches on nutrients, organic and non-GMO, meal plans, milk alternatives, forms of coconut, and other simple ingredients swaps. Recipes range from sweet to savory, and can be accomplished by any home cook. Fantastic book for recipe inspiration, or for those living with dairy allergy and who either love to cook or are learning to navigate the DF kitchen for the first time.

Good cookbooks will often have sections devoted to technique, especially if the book focuses on a specific cooking style (such as Instant Pots or slow cookers, for example), They might also provide a short list of ingredients or tools that would be helpful in executing the recipes. Sometimes cookbooks will even offer a glossary of terms that are specific to the style of cooking or the culture or country from which the recipes come. In the case of gluten- and grain-free recipes, a glossary can be very helpful to anyone who's new to this way of eating. Each recipe is designed around the right balance of protein, starchy vegetables or fruit, non-starchy vegetables, grains, condiments, a crunch factor, and optional cheese. There are even dessert bowls, like Mexican chocolate pudding and bumbleberry pie, that help satisfy your sweet tooth. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, barley, and triticale. It often acts as a binding agent and gives food structure. Unfortunately, some people have a sensitivity or intolerance to gluten and can experience unpleasant or even threatening symptoms. For example, gluten can damage the small intestines of people with celiac disease and make it difficult to absorb nutrients. Even those without celiac disease may experience discomfort, headaches, bloating, or rashes after consuming gluten.
