I wish I had this book when I was first diagnosed! Although the only photos are on the front and back cover, just reading the recipes makes my mouth water.

Perhaps the greatest strength of the book is it is so easy to use. Generally there is only one recipe per page, with the ingredients listed at the top and preparation directions at the bottom, making it easily read while cooking. And the ingredients are readily available, even in the back-of-beyond area where I live. The only specialized ingredients, readily available, are xanthan gum, gluten-free pasta (other than homemade, Tinkyada brand is easily the best), and gluten-free flour mix.

Buy this book and your entry into a gluten-free diet will be easy. You'll be making delicious company meals as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars new life in my gluten free diet, August 6, 2007

When I was diagnosed with Celiac's disease three years ago I looked everywhere for a book like this one from Ms.Ambrose. Once again I can bake cookies for my children and their friends(try the peanut butter they're amazing). The meals are easy to make and the directions easy to follow (and my family loves them!), the book also offers alot of information about Celiacs and products to stay away from if you have the disease. I especially love the doggy section! I recommend this book for any one who wants or needs to cut glutton out of their diet.

With several friends and family members that cannot tolerate wheat-I was always at a loss when planning a menu. From Appetizers (Blackened Salsa,Spicy Olive Dip !!! ) to Dessert -(Lemon Ricotta Cheesecake ! ) and EVERYTHING in-between, her recipes always make a big hit ! The recipes are easy to follow and the ingredients are easily obtainable at my local grocery store.
