There are eggs and milk "hidden" in lots of prepackaged, processed foods. I've found the best place to shop for us is at Whole Foods or Trader Joes. They have whole sections dedicated to being dairy free or egg free or gluten free. And be aware that a package that is labeled "dairy free," doesn't always mean that it doesn't contain milk. Casein, the actual milk protein, is often found in premade food.
Look up the food allergy network, they have great links to cookbooks, brands and recipes for people with allergies!

That is a good place to start..what 'can' you eat...
my child has a lot of food allergies and has made me more aware of 'healthy' eating...focusing on fresh fruits/veggies and whole grains and lean meats.
Bagels - jelly or peanut butter instead of cream cheese. I use egg replacer for her in just about anything I bake (I use a little of it and mix it with yogurt or applesauce being careful not to add too much liquid otherwise baked goods take too long to bake and are crumbly.
There is also rice dream or soy milk as a substitute for milk in cereal, recipes, or smoothies.
What types of food do you typically eat? It will just take some time to think through a new diet, but, thankfully, there are lots of substitutes and help out there. Whole Foods or a specialty health food store would be helpful to get you started.
It helps to keep focused on what can be eaten and not on what you 'can't'.
Good luck.
