Out of all the gluten-free cookbooks, my favorite is 1000 Gluten-Free Recipes by Carol Fenster is my favorite. I really would love to give a copy to you all, but since that is not feasible, and because I have limited stock on hand, I am giving away one copy to each of the 2 lucky winners! The rest of my stock is for sale, at what I believe to be the lowest price on the Internet (Suggested Retail $35, my price $19). See Gluten-Free Cookbooks on our Products page. Shipping is via USPS Media Mail and is only shipped in the U.S. when purchased online for only $3.64.
Meanwhile, read my review of 1000 Gluten-Free Recipes below and check out the many articles and recipes Carol Fenster has contributed to this website.
“1000 Gluten-Free Recipes” Review
The reason why I enjoy 1000 Gluten-Free Recipes so much is that it reminds me of my first cookbook, The Joy of Cooking. It contains almost everything you would ever wish to make or bake gluten-free.
Carol Fenster really knows her stuff. She is a renowned gluten-free consultant, speaker, teacher and the author of over 10 titles. She is my mentor in my gluten-free kitchen. I can hear you her voice, “Now, Carla…” LOL!
She avoids the use of rice flour in most of her recipes, as it gives a grainy texture to baked goods. She provides you with a gluten-free flour blend that is very simple and contains sorghum, potato starch and tapioca flour/starch. How easy is that? Sometimes you’ll need to add more starch or another flour because she perfects her gluten-free recipes!
You can check out some of her recipes and tips in the links below:

Thank you sooo much for the chance to enter this contest. I am newly diagnosed Celiac (April, 2011), and winning this book has been a blessing. Thank you again, I just can’t wait to receive it.. :)
Shared a link to this page on Google+ post. Yay hoping I get to make a bunch of yummy treats from Carol’s book soon!
Playing with this to me in my spare time would sure make nursing school much more fun!
I’m a celiac and also allergic to casein (dairy) so I have to make all my own food and pack tons for very long clinical days (12 hour shifts) at the hospital.
This would really freshen up my diet and enliven it with all sorts of new yummy options!
