Review: Made the transition to GF much easier and tastier - My husband, two young daughters and I have reluctantly transitioned to a gluten-free diet due to health, behavioral, and gluten intolerance issues in our family. I'm not gonna lie: going GF stinks at first. We like to eat healthy but we also love good sandwiches, waffles and occasional treats such as cupcakes and cookies. This book has saved our lives by keeping our favorites within reach and introducing us to new things that we love. Fantastic recipes, author is knowledge and hilarious. Like other reviewers have said, the chocolate cake donut recipe alone is worth triple the price of the book. (Get the Babycakes Donut Baker. I, too, have scoffed at this machine in the past, but since the occasional breakfast treat makes our Sundays even nicer, we sprang for it. Worth it.) They go together in a snap and taste even better than their gluteny cousins. The recipes that require a little planning ahead--mainly the refrigerated bread, pizza, etc. doughs--are fantastic. Once assembled and refrigerated, you can whip out amazingly beautiful, tasty, light GF breads without fussy rising times and temperatures. Need good, "yeasty" dinner rolls for a party? If you make this beautiful and light dough once a week, you can have two dozen beautiful rolls in in 30 minutes TOPS. Same with a beautiful, crusty loaf of artisan-quality boule bread. Wow. Just wow. I would love to see a few changes. The first: so many of the recipes are split between 2 pages and you have to flip a page back and forth between ingredients and directions. I suppose it wouldn't matter if you measure all of your ingredients ahead of time like cooking shows do, but I find that cumbersome, time-consuming, and creates way more dirty dishes than necessary. I also use a cookbook stand that holds the pages open. That has made reading and executing many of these recipes difficult. Poor planning on the publisher's part--I can't fault the author though. Secondly, as many reviewers have pointed out, none of the recipes have nutritional information. My husband has Type I diabetes and keeps his blood sugar under right control by counting carbs. He enjoys these recipes but we have to guess and that has resulted in spikes and dips in his blood sugar count. Overall I could not be happier that I bought this book--and neither could my children. I'm definitely going to buy her other two books once I have mastered a few more of the recipes in this one. If the author published a second edition that kept the recipes on the same page and included nutritional content, I'd literally buy the same book again in a heartbeat. Off to make some chocolate donuts--and sneak some away when my kids aren't looking.
Review: Quick, delicious gluten-free food! - I own both of the Shoestring books, and am a regular reader of the blog. (baking the pretzel rolls from the blog as I type) This book is filled with recipes that are not "good, for gluten free", but simply good, in some cases better than their gluten-y counterparts. The rest of my family can eat gluten, and they love the things I have made. This is not intended to be a health food book, as the doughnut on the cover should indicate. It is a book filled with terrific gluten-free versions of the food those of us who can't eat gluten miss being able to have. The doughnuts on the cover are the best gf doughnuts I have had, and the rest of the book is filled with other great recipes. The back of the book has recipes for several time-saving mixes: cookies, muffins, scones, cakes etc. Packaged gluten-free food is usually very expensive and not very tasty, so many of us bake from scratch, which can be time-consuming. Nicole Hunn solves all of those problems with recipes that are quick and easy to make, inexpensive, and delicious.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Made the transition to GF much easier and tastier

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What would I do without this cookbook?
*by C***N on November 20, 2013*

I simply can not say enough good things about this cookbook. Hardly a weekend goes by without using one of her recipes. I can honestly say that I do not know what I would do without this book. My husband and daughter both have Celiac disease. When they were first diagnosed, I was lost....how would we eat....what could we eat. I stumbled upon the Gluten Free on a Shoestring blog and I found hope....and donuts...and cookies...and all kinds of tasty items. I own both of her cookbooks and have the next one soon to be released ordered. This is my favorite so far. We don't eat desserts and bread everyday but we want these things every so often. I love the section in the back of the book where she gives you the recipes to make your own mixes. I have baked the brownies and brought them to many pot lucks and nobody every even knew that they were gluten free....they were just gone. We have made the donuts on the cover, the muffins in the mix section, chocolate cupcakes from the mix section, vanilla cupcakes from the mix section, flour tortillas, and the cinnamon rolls just to name a few. Not only are the recipes delicious and easy to follow, Nicole has written the cookbook with pieces of her sense of humor which I love. I would highly recommend this cookbooks for anyone who wants to eat gluten free but still wants to eat good food. Food should not be good for gluten free.....if I am going to serve it to my family it needs to be good and gluten free.
