Reviews for Donna Klein’s The Gluten Free Vegetarian Kitchen.
“Donna Klein is a well-known cookbook author but what did she know
about being gluten-free? Well, I must say I am truly impressed. The
book does a good job of outlining the “Celiac Diet” and places
where the perfidious gluten can hide. Ms. Klein makes great use of
the alternative flours and gluten free ingredients, highlighting
the natural flavors of gluten free food. For a meat-eater like me,
it was useful to have all of the recipes categorized by Dairy-Free,
Egg-Free, Vegan etc. As a diabetic, it was great to see which
recipes were labeled as “low-carb” AND have the nutrition facts for
each recipe. I had a great time pouring through the cookbook
selecting which ones to make first. I decided to have a dinner
party with a few friends (Celiac and not) to give the recipes a
test run. Everyone loved the food. Meat-eaters, gluten-eaters and
the vegetarian-Celiac all gave the recipes rave reviews.”
