What are some good egg free recipe books? Don't want anything as restrictive as a vegan cookbook, just need to eliminate the eggs and egg-based mixes/ingredients due to my allergy to eggs. Any good resources out there? I'll also take blogs/websites that are dedicated to egg-free pursuits.

So, we just got a mini filled pie press that can punch out little pocket pies about the size of those sold at the biggest fast food chain. I'm going to head to the store to pick up some frozen pie crusts. What are your favorite sweet or meaty/veg filled pie recipes?

I'm looking for simple and delicious foil parcel recipes. I've only got access to an oven and limited preparation space in my kitchen for a while and thought this might be the solution for all in one meals that involve minimal washing up. I've got some Jamie Oliver fish/chicken ones - any other ideas?

Is there a website or program that will let me select from several easy recipes, plan for a week or several weeks in advance, create a weekly shopping list and (here's the hard part) OPTIMIZE my selections so that the most perishable food gets cooked first?

I've recently been put on the RPAH elimination diet. A list of the foods I can eat are
here. I have the Friendly Foods cookbook, but would like a little more variety in my main meals. Does anyone have some yummy recipes using only those ingredients? I'm allowed dairy and gluten.

Feeling disenchanted with tuna salad, but want to keep eating fish for lunch every day. What are you best suggestions for easy, portable lunches that feature fish as a prominent ingredient? These need to be fully assembled before work and need to either taste good cold (ideal) or reheat in a microwave really well.

FIIIIIGS! We're moving to a house that has a fig tree! Looking for fig recipes, but also any information about preserving/canning/pickling/drying/freezing them. Also, how do I know if they are green figs or black figs (ours appears to have both) and what's the difference?

I've always loved portabella mushroom sandwiches with roasted red peppers and some goat cheese. This week I discovered I also love portabella pizzas - substituting the mushroom cap as the crust of the pizza. Can you tell me more portabella recipes I might love?

We've got sage, chives, and sweet basil growing in small pots this summer. I've got a few recipes that use one or the other of them, but I know I could be doing more. What else can I do with them? We eat pretty much anything, except we avoid starches (so pasta, potatoes, or grain ideas won't help us much). I'm open to everything from "throw some chopped chives into scrambled eggs" to more formal recipes. Ethnic foods a plus, but hardly required.

My problem is I am the only one in the family who really doesn't cook so am lacking in ideas of what to put in. What is your favourite meal that you would pass on to someone in this situation? Or something special for a couple to eat?

I need some picnic food ideas for someone with celiac disease. I have plenty of ideas for side dishes and dessert, but I am coming up short on what to serve for the entree. We will not have access to a grill or any form of cooking, so the food has to be served cold, right from the cooler. Help!

One of my coworkers lost his spouse this week, 24 hours after she gave birth to their baby. At work we created a sign up sheet for us each to bring food to him over the coming weeks/months. Today I found out that he's both lactose intolerant and vegetarian. Please give me your best recipes (for 4-6 servings and up) that fit this criteria.
