I loved every page of this book.. Devoured it in one sitting.  If you like to understand the how and why of successful gluten free baking you must have this book.. I love Cooks Illustrated magazine and this book is up to the standards of that publication.  I have it on my Kindle and will soon order a paper copy.  The comfort food recipes look really good and I will soon try them all.  Have just ordered all the ingredients to make the ATK recommended flour mix.

Trying to follow a gluten-free diet while traveling is a hassle and sometimes downright impossible. But using the suggestions in Brette Sember's guide, gluten-free travelers will find that it's not as hard as they thought. The guide covers all the bases and is chock full of smart advice. I especially like the resources Sember has included so that you can research ahead of time, taking the hassle out of finding gluten-free food choices on the road. And her dining out tips are invaluable. With this guide, gluten-free travelers will never go hungry again.

I've been doing the gluten free thing a couple of years now and have Nicole Hunn's other books. This should not be your first purchase since this is devoted to the classic snacks our mothers called "junk food." If you are craving a taste of your childhood, or you have a little one who is gluten sensitive and feels left out when snacks are passed out, then this book is for you! Directions are well written and easy to follow.

I have family members that have developed gluten intolerance and was also looking for ideas to clean up my own diet. This book not only tells a story about discovery of good food without all the processed "crap" we force our bodies to deal with every day but does so in a beautiful upbeat way.  The Seasame Seed sauce recipe is worth the entire price of the book.  I had never heard of nutritional yeast - okay I had but never gave it a thought.  Now, it is my secret weapon.  I'm thinking twice about what I make for my husband and Imand the food is beautiful, easy and approachable from a cooking and a taste standpoint.  This is right next to my Smitten Kitchen and Alice Waters cookbooks.  Very well thought out and photographed.  I've even given a couple of copies as gifts.  yum!

Gluten Free Recipes in 30 Minutes is helpful.  I am learning about gluten free dieting and how to stay healthy without gluten in my life.  This book gives great tips on how to make living gluten-free easier, how to manage your money while on a gluten-free diet, and the benefits of living a gluten-free lifestyle.  This book teaches you how to substitute foods with gluten with gluten-free foods without sacrificing the foods you enjoy or your taste buds for that matter.  I liked the nutritional information  and the per serving information listed on each recipe.  Since I am learning about the gluten free diet, this book gives me everything I want in a recipe book--such as breakfast, lunch and dinner meals including desserts and everything in between.  I want to start out decreasing my gluten intake and this book will help me to that a little bit at a time.

I like the fact that this book points out specific items/foods/drinks that we can or cannot use to aid in our efforts to avoid Gluten.  I'm allergic but not a celiac member!

I just LOVE the way this book is written. Easy to read chapters with bulleted info that breakdowns everything (eating GF can be tricky when you first start)! I've researched gluten free eating quite a bit and this is a wonderfully clear breakdown on what gluten is, where it's hiding out, and why it can be an issue for so many people.

I've been experimenting with a gluten-free diet for a few months now, and bought this book for guidance on what to eat. The book is comprehensive, covering everything from what gluten is to other harmful food additives, such as BHT, and of course the recipes. One of my favorite sections is on eating gluten-free on a budget. The recipes are eclectic, yummy and fairly simple to eat. Out of the ones I've tried, my favorite so far is the apple pancake recipe. The kids love it too.

This Snack-book provides so many recipes that are essential in creating quick and easy Paleo favorites that it is hard not to snack all day just to sample them all.  The introduction is brief because they assume you've made the lifestyle change, but the wealth of information comes in the recipes.  The book is broken into recipes titled by the type of snacking to be done: Smooth Sipping, Grab A Bar, Calling All Meat Lovers. Each of the many recipes are short and sweet, giving essential information, including serving size, prep and cook times, a quick intro into what you're eating, ingredients, and directions.

With the recently increasing incidence of food allergies, celiac disease, and diabetes in children and adults alike  as well as an allergy-heavy son herself  Debbie Adler felt called to create wholesome, nourishing baked goods free of dairy, eggs, soy, gluten, wheat, nuts, and refined sugars. And create she did, launching a Los Angeles-based vegan and allergy-free bakery known as Sweet Debbies Organic Cupcakes that specializes in gourmet baked goods including cupcakes, cookies, brownies, and muffins.

Though Debbie ships her creative and allergy-friendly treats nationwide, seven years after opening her bakery she sought to spread her culinary love even further and published her cookbook, Sweet Debbies Organic Treats: Allergy-Free & Vegan Recipes from the Famous Los Angeles Bakery. Chosen as a Best Gluten-free Cookbook of 2013 by Delicious Living Magazine, a Best Vegan Cookbook of 2013 by Green Vegan Living and a Favorite Book by Living Without Magazine, Sweet Debbies Organic Treats features over 50 recipes for truly unique muffins, brownies, cookies, cupcakes, energy bars, donut holes, and breads.

Guiding you through such mouthwatering recipes as Salted Caramel Apple Muffins, Quinoa Cranberry Cookies, Coconut Crunch Donut Holes, and Krispy Kale n Cheese Soft Pretzel Rods, Debbie provides fun, upbeat, and snarky commentary on every page to inform readers about particular ingredients and the story behind the treat (including a very harried excursion to a neighborhood pumpkin patch).

Though some of the ingredients Debbie recommends  like coconut nectar, certain gluten-free flours, and powdered erythriol  cost a bit more than is accessible for many of us not beholden to food allergies, substitutions for these ingredients abound, and I can vouch for the fact that smart, budget-friendly ingredient subs still yield delectable goodies.

The first of  the Sweet Debbies recipes with which I experimented caught my attention with its promise of summery, refreshing flavors. The Basil-Lemonade Cookies feature a moist crumb and chewy texture to provide the dessert version of a cooling waterside beverage, complete with a sticky glaze that abounds with citrus flavor. Clearly, Debbie sees the powerful wisdom in accentuating sweet treats with herbs.

Eager to try out Debbies baked version of fried dough balls, I grabbed the saffron gifted to me by my aunt who recently traveled to Morocco and recreated a batch of Saffron and Cardamom Donut Holes. With the sophisticated flavor of saffron infused into both the dough and the glaze, these donut holes boast a gorgeously pink hue. Of course, considering saffrons exorbitantly high price point, I certainly wouldnt have made this recipe without my aunts herby gift, and Im confident that the donut holes would taste just as complexly spiced with only the cardamom. Cakey and dense, these bite-sized donut holes provide a fun dessert or snack easy for popping right into ones mouth.

An avowed chocolate fanatic, Debbie also includes plenty of cocoa-filled recipes in her cookbook, and shes graciously agreed to share one such recipe here on Farmers Market Vegan! Debbies Caramel-Glazed Fakin Bacon Brownies offer an animal-friendly way to participate in the recent bacon-chocolate phenomenon, employing the versatile shiitake mushroom for a vegan meaty topping. Given the rampant worker exploitation in the chocolate industry, I would highly recommend using either carob powder or a cacao powder approved by the Food Empowerment Project in the recipe.

After reading this book, I knew I had to convert to a gluten-free way of eating.  For the past few months I've been plagued with bloating after eating pasta, pastries, and most breads.  It is very uncomfortable and can also be very embarrassing.

This book tells you what gluten is and why it may be important to immediately remove it from your diet.  It tells you how to read labels to ensure that you are really eating a gluten-free product.  It also gives some handy alternatives to gluten like buck wheat that you can stock in your pantry.

I'm not one of those creative cooks, so if you are like me, you always appreciate sample menus.  Jake Hargis delivers with a bonus of 7 days of gluten free recipes.  Highly recommended.

I actually picked up this book because many people in my family do not eat gluten and while I have not been tested yet, am starting to avoid it. Susan Lord has written a very personal story of her journey to feed her daughter with ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorder) a gluten-free, casein-free diet. I especially like the tips that she has gathered along the way. I also like the ideas she give in lists of snack ideas or meal plans. Sometimes, I think no kidding, but other times I think, oh, that's something I had not thought of. As for the recipes, there is a nice mix of "normal" food with no special ingredients to recipes that call for special flours and such. Some recipes are a bit silly though....For example, "meatloaf" contains only ground beef and salt. I don't really need a recipe to come up with that idea. On the other hand, I read a bound galley pre-publication edition, so maybe something was missing in my version.

Overall, my recommendation for this book is, if you have a special needs child that needs to go GFCF, buy this book now. If you are looking to eat gluten free because of your own allergies, there are a lot of books out there now. This one is good for some ideas, tips, and recipes.
