bubblechild | Nut, dairy, and gluten-free PESTO

Erica at Bubble Child Blog has a great recipe for Nut, dairy and gluten-free pesto. She also has a great site that is a lot of fun to read. Her personal touch to her posts sets it apart and adds a new dimension to the news and recipes (and there are lots) she tells us about.

Presto! Nut, dairy, and gluten-free PESTO.It’s no wonder Italians are so happy– basil is apparently a natural serotonin booster.  You know what?  The way I feel right now eating this nut, dairy, and gluten-free pesto pasta, I sure believe it!For anyone who doesn’t suffer from a deadly nut allergy like me and other nut bubble children, they probably did not know that pretty much all pesto is made with nuts, be it pine nuts most common or walnuts a little bit more gourmet.

Jude the Dude, Book GiveawayEvery Peanut Allergy Kid needs a hero – someone to look up to, emulate, and teach them daily tricks to live safely. Jude the Dude: The Peanut Allergy Kid is a new book character created by Bridget Batson to fill that need. After creating the popular animation on peanut allergies, Bridget has turned her beloved peanut allergy story into a book to read to your child nightly. Now, she is giving away a copy of her first book in the series to one lucky reader autographed by both her and “Jude the Dude”. To enter, tell us something special about your allergic child in the comments section. One reader will be chosen at random and the contest is open to both the United States and Canadian residences. Contest closes April 11,2011
