Hello everybody! I'm somewhat new, but not totally new to gluten free. But I've been searching and searching for a good cookbook for me. I'm in college, not a good cook, on the go a lot, need to pack lunches and I'm on a tight budget. It seems that all the cookbooks out there have such...may I say extravagant recipes. Like recipes I would never use nor would be efficient at this time. I want a cookbook that is well rounded (desserts, main, apps, etc) but yet has quite a few recipes that I could actually want and can make. I'm not looking for completely simple like peanut butter and jelly I just don't want a whole cookbook full of "chicken basil ala spinach puffs" which a lot of cookbooks I looked for are like. haha. I was just wondering if someone had any suggestions or ideas that could help me out! :D

Right now the two main cook books I have been using a lot are:

*The Gluten Free Kitchen by Roben Ryberg (Main ingredients are Potato Starch, Corn Starch, Baking Soda and Baking Powder then couple normal ingredients) It is a really easy cookbook. About 264 pages (recipes start on pg 14)

*Inreditble Edible Gluten Free Food for Kids by Sheri L. Sanderson

Yes it is labled for Kids BUT.... it has some really easy recipes in it that will get you started and use to baking/cooking gluten free. Sounds funny but it has a symbol on most of the pages i.e. EZ to show its an easy recipe or a Clock showing that it doesn't take that long. Around 280 pages (recipes start on pg 34) At the end of the book it has a cooking tips/trouble shooting section.

-- Both Cook Books don't have that many ingredients. They both have Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Desserts (cookies, pies etc). I think they are good beginner cook books that will help you make the next step to the more time consuming ones if you want. If you like pizza they both have pizza recipes :D

I just made Rolls from The Gluten Free Kitchen one tonight... I use then for sandwich rolls or hamburger buns.

Good Luck

Why not just look up recipes on the internet? That way you have all the cookbooks you could ever want.

I really love this site Open Original Shared Link she posts easy and economical recipes. All of them are gluten-free, many are vegetarian or vegan. Karina's recipe for Sweet Potato Black Bean Enchiladas is (delicious, and) one of six finalists up for Whole Food's recipe contest.

Also check into the Atkins diet type books. Not a lot of grains in those.

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?
