Most families with a member with celiac disease struggle to get food on the table that the whole family can enjoy. This easy-to-use cookbook focuses on creating simple recipes that minimize stress from three experts in the field. Most of the dishes use ingredients that are easily found in supermarkets and don't require the exotic flours, expensive ingredients or complicated recipes found in other gluten-free cookbooks. Here is a book that lives up to the promise of making real food for real people--real easy! With over 100 delicious and easy-to-make gluten-free recipes for every meal of the day from entrees, soups, salads, and appetizers, to desserts and other baked goods.

--icons to indicate high protein, low fat, high fiber, or vegetarian

One of the fastest growing segments in nutrition is understanding the role of gluten and its effect on the immune system. This book offers guidance to people struggling to make sense of their food options and eat healthy while cooking delicious and appealing food for themselves and their families.

Here's what people are saying about "Gluten-Free Made Simple"
