Geez...she must be a relative. Add dairy and mushrooms and you pretty
well have my family. Makes holiday dinners a challenge!

Nuts we ignore for most recipes and are fine.

My niece cannot do chicken, but she can do turkey. Maybe check with
your wifes doc and see what they say about turkey as an option. And
there is always tofu.

Pears instead of apples

Vegetable salads rather than green ones

Lots of people can't do wheat, there's a whole wheat free site with
recipes at http://www.wheat-free.org/recipes.html

Quinoa is a nice grain that will work for pilafs and such instead of
rice. Barley is an option too. We use in in soups rather than rice.

Honestly, I could live just fine without peppers, eggplant (not that I
don't like them, but life would still be worth living without them) and
I don't even know what baby marrow is so I've certainly survived without
that one ;-) With our family we focus on the things we can eat and find
that there is a lot we can do with that rather than trying to fiddle
with recipes filled with "forbidden foods".
