The kids got the ZOKU chocolate station as their valentines day present (mostly bc mom was anxious to try it)
It may not be pretty, first round trying to dip in the station wasnt pretty ( we will need to practice right temp if choc ) but the fact we can do it totally rocks!
It has a recipe for a vegan version of quick shelling choc.
Basically it's 2/3 choc chips and 1/3 refined coconut oil.
Since it was valentines we loaded up the heart sprinkles :)
Living with food allergies definitely requires adjustments. When we first found out our son (4 yrs ago) had 20+ food allergies, I was completely overwhelmed and quite honestly wasn't sure how or what to eat. He has outgrown some allergens and these posts are mostly going to be a daily update of "What's for Lunch." He currently is allergic to and we avoid: DAIRY, NUTS, EGGS, PEANUTS, WHEAT, SHELLFISH

Football Krispies
Super Bowl Sunday, needing to bring something allergy friendly for our kids to the neighbors Super Bowl party...
I saw a picture on "parents of kids with foods allergies" Facebook page of football shaped treats.
The ones they made appeared to be in an egg shaped mold, I tried an Easter egg plastic mold and that didn't work. I just pressed them down flat overnight and following day used a large spoon as a press to make into shapes of footballs.
I used the typical Rice Krispie treat directions (subbing w vegan butter) and I added Hershey's dark chocolate syrup to the warmed up marshmallows to make them brown.
Super easy treat!!
