Everything Guide to Living Gluten Free: GIVEAWAY!

 

The Everything Guide to Living Gluten-Free:

The Ultimate Cooking, Diet, and Lifestyle Guide for Gluten-Free Families

This is one of the newest cookbooks on the gluten-free scene! The Everything Guide to Living Gluten-Free is written by Jeanine Friesen, of The Baking Beauties, and it is the perfect book to help you transition to a gluten-free lifestyle!

”The Everything Guide to Living Gluten-Free covers a variety of topics for those looking at starting the gluten-free diet,” Friesen said. “Whether it be due to Celiac Disease, a gluten intolerance, or to help alleviate a number of other symptoms, like ADHD, migraines, and rheumatoid arthritis.”

Inside this Ultimate Cooking, Diet, and Lifestyle Guide for Gluten-Free Families, you will find guidance on making a stress-free switch to a gluten-free life, with valuable information on:

  • Setting up a pantry to avoid cross-contamination
  • Finding gluten-free options when traveling
  • Selecting gluten-free health and personal care products
  • Enjoying restaurant dinners and parties
  • Helping children acclimate to the gluten-free lifestyle

I was lucky enough to get my hands on a Sneak Preview of this amazing book and was so impressed with how thorough it is. It covers everything you need to get started on a gluten-free lifestyle. It is full of tips, tricks, and tools to keep you on track and not feeling overwhelmed.

Plus, it has 100 tried, true, and tested Gluten-free Recipes ranging from Breakfast, to Kid-Friendly Lunch and Snacks, Main Dishes, Sides and Salads, Slow Cooker, and Dessert Recipes! And coming from someone who has tested MANY of Jeanine’s recipes over the years, I can assure you that all of her recipes are amazing!

If you are new to the gluten-free lifestyle, have been on this journey for a little while now, or know someone else who is just starting out living this way, this book is an invaluable resource for you. This is a wonderful tool and one that should be in every gluten-free kitchen.

    I have had several people tell me that I should go gluten free and my asthma would clear but I have been able to figure out how best to transition to a gluten free lifestyle. This book sounds like it would help me to easily learn how to this. It would be such a blessing to finally be free of asthma after 20 years.

    This book sounds and looks amazing… not only does Gluten bother me but Garlic does as well… I have just returned from a trip from the Dominican where I dined on Cabbage, salad and eggs for a week… would love to know what else I can prepare to take or cook as a change. Anything is better than Salad, cabbage and eggs.!!

These have been the hardest things for me so far! It’s so hard to go out and I’d rather skip…hopefully this book will help get around those hurdles and make things easier and enjoyable for our whole family!

    My daughter recently was diagnosed with a glutton alllergy. Ths book would help me out so much as I really have no clue what I am doing and stressed out about it.

    I’m still new to the GF lifestyle, so the thought of having a great resource on hand would be so helpful.

    Follow on fb. Shared. Trying to heal skin issues a friend told me to try gluten free. A cookbook would be nice.
