  Delicious recipes for the gluten-intolerant.

  Gluten is primarily found in wheat, rye, barley and oats. A recent study suggests that one in 250 Americans cannot tolerate gluten. Many suffer from Celiac disease, a digestive disorder that damages the small intestine and interferes with the absorption of nutrients from food. Many others also suffer from food allergies that trigger a wheat or gluten sensitivity. Quite often, the only treatment is a gluten-free diet.

  The Best Gluten-Free Family Cookbook features sensational recipes for baked goods, desserts, and main meals -- foods that are typically avoided in gluten-free diets. Here is a sampling of the appetizing recipes:

  • Blueberry Orange Muffins or Loaf
  • Rum and Pecan Pie
  • Lotsa Lemon Squares
  • Triple Threat Chocolate Mocha Chocolate Chip Cookies
  • Grilled Salmon and Roasted Peppers with Fusilli
  • Cranberry and Wild Rice Stuffing
  • Quinoa Stuffed Peppers.

  Accompanying each recipe is a wealth of tips and techniques for novice and experienced cooks alike.
