Growing up in an Italian household filled with restauranteurs and great cooks, author Mary Capone learned the foundation of classic Italian cuisine from her family's boisterous kitchens. As a celiac, she has since reinvented this scrumptious cuisine to meet the needs of gluten-free dieters. Her articles have appeared in The Herb Quarterly, Living Without's Gluten Free and More, Energy for Woman, and Delicious Living Magazine. Mary is the founder of Bella Gluten-Free, an allergy friendly baking mix company, and the culinary instructor for simplycleaneats.com, offering instruction in a wide variety of allergen friendly cuisines. She currently lives in Boulder Colorado with her well-fed family.
