Our Thoughts …
We love to try difference cookbooks. We aren’t Gluten-Free at our house but we have read about this diet change that many people are living with right now. We also have several friends who are now on gluten-free diets so if we cook for them, we know that this cookbook will be our first resource. We have a few recipes we want to try in this book including …

This would be tough to decide – I would either keep it myself or give it to my little sister who tried to eat gluten free. Thanks!

I am delighted to read your review of this book! It’s hard to find GF recipes that are both tasty and realistic. This looks like an answer to prayers! My whole family would enjoy these recipes. My husband has celiac disease so rather than try to make GF and non-GF foods at every meal, we are all transitioning to GF. This book would be just the thing to help me with that!
