Aidant Books announces Gluten-Free Deliciously, a valuable resource to those 
who are faced with the dauntless task of eliminating wheat from their diet.  
This ever-increasing population includes the 1 in every 133 individuals who 
have celiac disease, as well as those with gluten intolerance, wheat allergy, 
and autism.

Gluten-Free Deliciously begins by offering the reader a basic education about 
celiac disease, considered to be one of the most misdiagnosed and under 
diagnosed diseases in America today.  

Information about alternative grains including quinoa, teff, amaranth, and 
millet, encourages readers to incorporate these powerhouses of nutrition into 
their gluten-free diet.

The book also offers baking tips, a user-friendly layout, and an extensive list 
of dairy-free and egg-free recipes, and a section on flour mixes.  

Mrs. Cinquepalmi’s flour mixes offer health benefits to the gluten-free baker 
since they are comprised of at least 70 percent nutritional flour per 30 percent 
starch, a great reduction in the amount of starch commonly found in gluten-
free recipes and store-bought gluten-free baked items.

Hundreds of recipes in 23 categories broaden the culinary horizons of those 
who cannot eat wheat with recipes such as Calzones, Chocolate Truffle 
Cheesecake, Orange-Almond Biscotti, Cast Iron Pizza, Coconut Cream Pie, and 
Wrap Bread.   

Along with fabulous baked items, this tried-and-true recipe collection offers 
easy main dishes, tasty sides, and two new categories not covered in 
Cinquepalmi's first book: Meatless Main Dishes and Pizza. 
 
“This is a complete cookbook, not just recipes for baked items, because so 
often the newly diagnosed feel they are doomed to a life of dry grilled chicken 
breasts and steamed vegetables," explains author Jennifer Cinquepalmi.  

An eight page insert of colorful food photography prove that life without 
wheat can be sweet.

Cinquepalmi's own experience with celiac disease began in 2001 when two of 
her three children were diagnosed with the condition.  She sought to cook one 
meal that was good enough for her entire family to eat and to prepare meals 
that offered the same variety, flavor, and nutrition as those she prepared for 
her family prior to diagnosis.  

Her first book, The Complete Book of Gluten-Free Cooking, published in 2006 
and reprinted in 2008, has been praised for gluten-free recipes that work the 
first time you try them, and for having the best gluten-free yeast breads.  

“I felt the best way to keep my children from desiring to cheat was to 
educate them about celiac disease, and to feed them so that they are 
content," the author said.  

Cinquepalmi now speaks to create celiac disease awareness, teaches Gluten-
Free 101 classes to the newly diagnosed, and travels to teach gluten-free 
cooking classes such as Gluten-Free Baking, Alternative Grains in Gluten-Free 
Cooking, and Gluten-Free Goes Italian.

Availability:  Gluten-Free Deliciously is a hardcover cookbook available for 
$23.95 from most booksellers, online booksellers, or at www.aidantbooks.com.
