Cooking for Isaiah: Gluten-Free & Dairy-Free Recipes for Easy Delicious Meals Review
Since going gluten-free last year I've been researching cookbooks that would expand my repertoire a bit. Like almost every cookbook I've come across, this one fits that bill. Since I also eat low carb and lower dairy (but not dairy-free) there are some recipes that don't thrill me--but there are enough that are absolutely excellent! A few of her ingredients will never be in my pantry (Marshmallow Fluff for the pancakes), but that's easy to substitute with something more appealing to me (like simmered blueberry sauce). The photos are visually stunning and helpful in getting an idea of an appealing final presentation. The recipes are clear and pretty uncomplicated, and there's just enough conversational introduction to each chapter to make you feel like you understand her motivation for writing it.
I'm always searching for good GF bread recipes, and I really liked the "Double Corn Bread;" I'm going to try the "Bread Slabs" next.
Really glad I got this book--definitely a great addition to my collection!

Cooking for Isaiah: Gluten-Free & Dairy-Free Recipes for Easy Delicious Meals Overview
"The cornbread was flavorful, moist and light with a deliciously tender crumb. My only hope with this recipe was that Isaiah would love it... And then Isaiah took a bite. The look on his face was pure heaven."
Cooking for Isaiah is a love story of Silvana Nardone's journey to develop great-tasting meals for her son, Isaiah, after he was diagnosed with food intolerances to gluten and dairy. The results of her efforts are found in the pages of this book, through 135 recipes that are not only easy to make, but taste and look delicious.
From "S'mores Pancakes with Marshmallow Sauce" to "Double-Decker Toasted Cornbread and Spicy Greens Stack," and "Chicken and Waffles with Maple Bacon Gravy" to "Chocolate Birthday Cake with Whipped Chocolate Frosting," all of the recipes in Cooking for Isaiah are entirely free of gluten and dairy. Crafted with a variety of cooks in mind, an ingredient substitution chart shows you what to swap if, for example, you need to cook without gluten, but dairy is okay. You'll also find Silvana's tried-and-tested all-purpose flour and pancake mix recipes, sure to make gluten-free cooking and baking accessible to all. Written by Silvana Nardone, Editor in Chief of Every Day with Rachael Ray magazine, this charming, personal cookbook belongs on every cook's shelf.

Not for everyone... - surfin' ma - Smalltown ID, USA
This book is inspiring and beautiful, containing many wonderful recipes for anyone who is not very sensitive to Gluten. It is also very grain heavy, something some of us who have Celiac and gone GF have had to eliminate from our diet's because of severe Cross Contamination problems. Many of the ingredients used in the recipes are hard to find in a non-contaminated state. Isaiah must not be a very sensitive Celiac, because Ms. Nardone's recipes would be almost 100% off limits to my 2 children with Celiac because of the ingredients in them. She makes eating GFCF sound
SO easy---just a simple switch in ingredients. But the truth is, it can be much harder due to cross contamination and ingredients not listed on labels.
much needed type of book - Ellen Covington - MONTGOMERY CITY, MO, US
