This book is a great first book for gluten-free initiates. I've been eating a gluten-free diet for about a year now--reading tons of literature on the subject--so most of this book was a review for me. However, there were some gems about certain nutrients that I may lack and creative ways to add them to my diet. The recipes were also helpful and quick to make, unlike many other gluten-free recipe books where you have to have custom flour blends on hand to make anything.

This is the first review I have ever written and it is for this book because it is so good! My 8 year old daughter was diagnosed with an advanced case of celiac disease on Friday. We immediately went to our nearest bookstore to find any and all books on living/cooking gluten-free. What I needed the most, however, was a book on what to look for in the foods I buy from now on. This book was EXACTLY what I was looking for! I read it in a day and am now armed with the information I need to venture to the grocery store this afternoon to do my first round of gluten-free shopping. I am most appreciative that Ms. Thompson included many gluten-free manufacturers' websites that I can visit to purchase needed products. Thank-you, Ms. Thompson, for providing just what I was looking for as I begin this gluten-free journey with my daughter.

I teach a gluten-free cooking class for the Adult Education section of our local school system and I require purchasing this book as a text. My students really like having resources and information handy when they are at home.

This book really helps us Gluten-Free persons to understand better what we have to do & why. I strongly recommend this book to anyone but especially one who is newly diagnosed.

This book is really helpful in many aspects of correct nutrition for eating healthy when having celiac disease. I am looking forward to trying the receipes inside also.
