When we moved to the GF diet for SuperHubby, I picked up several GF cookbooks. Some, as always, were better than others. There are now several I refer to religiously whenever I decide to cook something new. Luckily for me, and my GF SuperHubby, there is a plethora of Gluten Free online resources. I’ve listed a couple that I visit routinely for new recipes and ideas. Those sites are linked at the bottom of the blog. I spend quite a bit of time with the Gluten Free Girl.
One of my work contacts was generous enough (Thank You, Andy!!) to send me a whole batch of Gluten Free Cookbooks. Specifically the Gluten Free Gourmet books by Bette Hagman. This series is particularly helpful. And now I have more recipes to play with!
I make so many things GF now, and have incorporated it into everyone’s diet. The kids don’t even notice any longer. Their pancakes and waffles, mostly homemade, are GF. Most dishes that require any breading or flours are all GF now. It was too difficult in the beginning, making separate batches for dinners. Besides, I think the kids are healthier without so much processed wheat flours.
We haven’t had them tested for Celiac yet, but at the last pediatrician visit, it was recommended to have the blood tests done. So far they show no signs of Celiac Disease, but it will be better to know if they carry the genes.
These are the Gluten-Free cookbooks and reference books that are staples in our house. They are now looking well used and splattered. Just the way a good cookbook should after a few years of use.
