Meet & Greet Author Event

If you have children or family members with allergies and you’re finding it hard to keep meals interesting and tasty, then stop in Griffin Bay Bookstore on Monday, June 27, 2:00—4:00 pm and talk with Seattle author, Stepanie Policar, about her new cookbook: Kids Eat Free. You’ll find out how to manage dietary restrictions, yet keep meals nutritious and delicious.
Kids Eat Free is a colorful collection of recipes and meal ideas that kids don’t mind cooking and parents won’t mind eating. All recipes are free of dairy, gluten, and many other sensitive allergens. Families are walked step-by-step through preparing delicious dishes aimed at putting the excitement into kids’ hands while developing a lifelong passion for nutritious food. Super chocolate energy balls, Freestyle Mac N’ Cheese, and Coconut French Toast are just a few of the fun recipes readers will learn to put in action.
“Having experience with my family’s own food allergies as well as my training from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition allows me to teach busy families how to safely navigate everyday situations like school lunches, eating out, and birthday parties,” Policar says.
This passion for allergen-sensitive cooking originally came from the dietary restrictions of her two daughters, and the mantra has gone on to drive her career. Policar now works hands-on with adults and children to set their nutritional course, helping those dealing with gluten, dairy, nut, and other allergens to find the simple act of eating both easier and more delicious.
