Product Description
This ingenious health guide offers hilarious first-person tales of the trials and tribulations of living with celiac disease, including the often embarrassing side effects and surviving college without beer. Author Vanessa Maltin uses her own personal experience with celiac disease to help you cope and offers tips for a gluten-free lifestyle that is easy and fun to maintain. - Easy-to-make recipes including snacks, finger foods, soups, salads, main dishes, and desserts
- Cooking tips from Christina Pirello, Emmy Award-winning TV personality and best-selling author of Cooking the Whole Foods Way
- Advice from experts for managing a gluten-free diet at home, in the workplace, at college, and on vacation
Beyond Rice Cakes is a must-read for people with celiac, their friends and families. The Gluten-Free Girls tips and recipes are more than strategies for simply coping with celiac. They promote an approach to gluten-free living that is full of adventure, innovation, and joy. Alice Bast, executive director of the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness Gluten-free cooking has never been easier!! With a small amount of time, limited ingredients, and basic kitchen utensils, Beyond Rice Cakes makes cooking easy and enjoyable for even the most cooking-delinquent college freshman. Lee Tobin, team leader, Gluten-Free Bakehouse, Whole Foods Market

 Great book for Gluten Free Diet! January 22, 2008
C. Cox (Sycamore, Il)
I love this book. I bought after being told I had to eliminate gluten from the diet. Even though this book is done by a college girl, I find I like the different recipes and the convenience factors. This book goes great with a book of recipes that would be really challenging. We all need quick and easy ones and this has lots of ideas. Yes, some recipes are simple, but a good reminder that... hey I can eat that! You absolutely have to try the chocolate peanut butter cookies! My favorite and easy!
Book on gluten free cooking------ November 9, 2007

I have a young daughter who was recently diagnosed with Celiac. Ordering this book was a great help to her in determining what to eat. This book was definitely written with a young person in mind.
THANKS SO MUCH---------

A wonderful book for all and especially for people who live alone both young and old. Disregard Maltin's "young person" focus. Regardless of your age you will enjoy reading the book and using the recipes. Maltin writes with a practical and humorous view of reality. There are a lot of great tips and good advice in addition to the recipes. I am a senior citizen who lives alone who has cooked a lot of complicated recipes--this is one of my favorite books.
 This cookbook is "OK" March 13, 2007

This cookbook does have a lot of good information in it which is nice...and it has few recipes which I will probably try to use.... but I wouldn't say that it will be the one with the most bent pages. :)
I'm only 23, so I would imagine that I will qualify as a "young person", but some of the recipes were so basic that they probably shouldn't have been included. However, that being said, there are a few that are worthy of being included in our "rotation".
I like the fact that she is increasing Celiac awareness and that she provides bonus information. I just wish that there were some juicier recipes in there!

I found the book to be very basic yet informative. It had some good recipes, but I guess I was expecting a little more.
