From the Inside Flap
If you suffer from celiac disease or gluten intolerance—or you want to avoid gluten for other health reasons—you know how challenging it can be to stick to a safe and nutritious diet without giving up the dishes you love. While many gluten-free cookbooks are collections of basic recipes,
Betty Crocker Gluten-Free Cooking serves up a compendium of recipes that are both gluten-free and delicious!
Celiac disease and gluten intolerance can only be managed and treated through your diet, so it's important to have the recipes you need to eat every day. Even if you can't eat gluten, you can still eat well with this collection of easy-to-prepare, great-tasting gluten-free recipes that cover every meal of the day and snacks in between. With 150 safe and satisfying options for any and every occasion, gluten-free living has never been so easy.
Inside, you'll find appetizers and snacks that truly hit the spot, like Greek Salad Kabobs and Zesty Deviled Eggs, as well as super-satisfying main courses like Chicken and Dumplings and Rosemary Pork Roast with Carrots. Plus, healthy grain side dishes and important extras—like gluten-free gravy—make completely gluten-free meals a breeze.
But most often it's breads, baked goods and desserts that are the most challenging for gluten-free eating, so this book is packed with enticing recipes for breads and baked treats. Included are mixes to jump-start your own baking from expert Silvana Nardone, as well as super-easy recipes using mixes from Betty Crocker. You'll find traditional breakfasts like Blueberry Pancakes and Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake as well as gluten-free recipes for standards like Sandwich Bread, Corn-bread and Dinner Rolls. Enjoy the everyday pleasure of your favorites, like homemade Soft Pretzels and—yes!—even pizza. When dinner's done, choose from a wide range of desserts—like Boston Cream Pie, Peanut Butter Cookie Candy Bars and Peppermint Frosted Brownies.
For anyone just adopting a gluten-free lifestyle, the book is packed with practical and important advice on eating healthful foods, getting the kind of vitamins and nutrition your body needs and maintaining a healthy and varied gluten-free diet. Lists of gluten-free grains and ingredients—as well as foods you should avoid—offer easy reference when you're unsure of what to eat, while steering you clear of unsuspected sources of gluten.
Betty Crocker Gluten-Free Cooking gives you a wealth of satisfying recipes and reliable information. When it comes to gluten-free cooking that's full of flavor, you can trust Betty Crocker.
