I received this book more than a few months ago and have gone through it page by page and have tried at least a dozen of the recipes. It’s been a very handy resource in the kitchen, especially when looking for things to make my ever so skeptical and demanding kids. They always challenge me [...]
Featured Book:
Make it Paleo
by Bill Staley and Hayley Mason
I read gluten-free and grain-free recipe books nearly every day. Whether it’s looking for my next meal or looking to share the book with the huge gluten-free community — it’s a part of my day that I always look forward to. What makes it even better is receiving a book that has 200 recipes that [...]

Grass Fed Jerky Chews
I had given up hope on beef jerky a long time ago. Not only were most of the store bought versions not gluten-free, they also contained a pretty hideous list of ingredients that I wouldn’t even want to feed my dog. You can imagine my delight when I found this beef jerky with its ridiculously [...]
Featured Products:
Hail Merry Organic Snacks
Sweetened with pure maple syrup and fresh fruit, their products keep everything real. the only added sugar that I found was with organic palm sugar on the pecans. I may be a sugar nazi at times, but when I do eat something with added sugar, it’s something like this.
Featured Product: Zenergy Powerballs
I get a lot of gluten-free products sent to me from both big and small companies. Some are from huge corporate behemoths reintroducing an old favorite as gluten-free — others are from small companies or individuals trying to create a product that can compete in a hugely competitive gluten-free marketplace. The products range from unbelievably [...]

Product Review:
French Meadow Bakery
The crowd of companies that are now offering gluten-free baked goods is getting downright overwhelming. I use the word overwhelming in a good way. Depending on the store that you shop in, there can be almost a dozen choices of gluten-free loaf bread, gluten-free cookies, gluten-free pizza crusts, and so on, and so on, and [...]
Udi’s and Celiac Handbook
at Natural Products Expo West in Anaheim
The Celiac Handbook Website is something I’ve been at for about 7 years now. It started out as a hobby and has turned out to be something that takes up a huge part of my daily routine (this is a good thing). I find myself reading a lot of blogs, news sites, and anything else [...]
Product Review: Tinkyada Brown Rice Pasta
One of the most common types of questions that I get from people newly diagnosed with celiac disease is about what types of gluten-free pasta are my favorites. Between the dozens of companies offering gluten-free pasta in its varying shapes and sizes and then the range of ingredients that are available, white rice, brown rice, [...]
Helpful tips for eating gluten-free at Chipotle
Chipotle has long been a favorite of many newly diagnosed celiacs for their seemingly celiac friendly menu. According to Chipotle, everything on the menu with the exception of the flour tortillas is naturally gluten-free. They do recommend skipping the lettuce and the cheese as it is handled by gloved hand along with the flour tortillas [...]
Featured Restaurant:
Posana Cafe
Asheville, North Carolina
I get recommendations for restaurants that have either a gluten-free menu or are celiac friendly nearly every hour of every day. As much as I would like to, I can’t try every one of them myself. I have had the opportunity to try quite a few of them up and down the west coast as [...]
