AoA Contest: Classic American Cuisine for the GFCF Diet
You can order this book and learn more at Stephanie's website, Autism Mom Cooks GFCF. Stephanie sent me a batch of the brownies and a loaf of the white bread. Both were delicious and few would ever guess they were GFCF. I really think my kids would have liked the brownies... ;)
Gluten-Free Casein-Free food that is inexpensive, easy to prepare and utterly delicious!
You shouldn't have to sacrifice taste or your family's grocery budget to enjoy (yes.....enjoy!) a GF/CF diet. Those on the GF/CF Diet because of Autism Spectrum Disorders, Celiac Disease or severe allergies, no longer have to settle for unappealing food. The days of crumbly, dry bread or gritty, odd-tasting cookies are over.
The Autism Mom Cooks Gluten-Free Casein-Free Cookbook Series is dedicated to providing simple, cost effective and delicious recipes that the whole family will enjoy.
All recipes are taste-tested on individuals who not on any sort of restrictive diets, those on GF/CF diets and finally...... some of the pickiest kids out there.
Don't have a lot of money to buy some real estate? Do not worry, just because that is real to receive the mortgage loans to resolve such problems. Therefore take a car loan to buy everything you require.

Posted by: Jennifer Nichols | September 25, 2009 at 08:13 AM
Would love to try this book's recipes. With the autism, my grandson's diet is extremely limited. Let's face it, we all need as much help as possible. We live in such a rural area it takes an hour to get to the nearest health food store that carries fixin's for gfcf foods, then the cost is almost not worth it. Thank's for your site.

I just found out this summer that my son has ASD. I am tearing even now just thinking about it all. What a journey. We stumbled upon this diet when, as vegans, our 5 year old son had stomach problems that caused us to look at eliminating one of the only things left... gluten. One week later, his digestive system responded and put him in the ER with feverish constipation.
Looking back, I'm actually glad that happened as we never would have seen the child we do now, 4 months later. What a difference it made!. Of course, we now stumble upon this diet all over the internet when before, we hadn't even heard about it.
I would love this book. I have three children ages 5,4, and turning 3 this Saturday. It's not easy trying to feed all of them on the same diet and have all of them enjoy it all. I could use some help.
Thank you for considering me.

Throw my name in for the book! I'll take any help I can get, GFCF is so hard to do!
Posted by: Carol Jines | September 24, 2009 at 12:41 PM
I have been so frustrated with putting things on the table that I'm told, please don't make that again! I'm fortunate to have family members willing to eat what I make, but am overwhelmed with constantly having to come up with new recipes.
Please enter me for the cookbook contest!
Thank you.

This appears to be an awesome book. I have been doing this diet on and off more on for the past 7 years, and it is tough to come up with new recipes with such a picky eater. Although, my grandson has come a long way since starting on this long journey that sometimes can be a very lonely road but we get through it with the grace of God and great internet friends and people like this author to help us through the days and nights. I would be the happiest "Nana" to win this book and my lil guy would love new recipes..........
Best of luck on your book.

Oh, oh, oh!!! This will go great in the new kitchen - a kitchen that will be large enough for me to actually cook/bake something! Ian's chicken nuggets are great but really, I'm tired of supporting just one segment of our economy.......

Posted by: Holly, Ohio | September 24, 2009 at 09:38 AM
This looks like the GFCF book i have been waiting for!!! And I am desperate for new recipes!!
Posted by: Kristin | September 24, 2009 at 09:38 AM
Although Ben has been tested and is free of any allergies I suspect that I am not. I love southern fried American food and Ive been sick all my life because of it. I'm too lazy to buy the book, too fat to want it, too old to change but my wife thinks she can fool me into eating healthier food if she could find the right recipes.
If you send me a copy I swear I will stick to the diet for a month and give you a report, if I don't get a free copy I'll eat a plate of biscuits, fried chicken and gravy, followed by a big fat brownie and ice cream... let it be on your conscious.
Posted by: bensmyson | September 24, 2009 at 09:20 AM
Sorry meant to say Enzymes not Autism.....I give my child Enzymes because I could never find foods that tasted like anything!
Posted by: Kathy | September 24, 2009 at 09:18 AM
Please consider me to receive this book....I give me child AUtism ( I have two children on the spectrum) because the diet is so difficult to sort through and the items tasted awful. Im willing to give it a go with a good cookbook!!!
Posted by: Kathy | September 24, 2009 at 09:16 AM

Posted by: Kathleen Helppi | September 24, 2009 at 08:59 AM
I read it yesterday, too, and I don't know what to try first. I live in the midwest, but my roots are southern, and the biscuits look sooooooo good. I'm with Kim on the mac-n-cheez and the grilled cheez sandwiches -- I've never seen a recipe for a sauce to use like Hemenway does. My girls (one NT, one ASD) looked at it with me last night with excitement -- it's filled with recipes that we can all eat together!

I read the book cover to cover last night before bedtime - dumb, I got really hungry! I especially like the cheese sauce substitute. I'd love to give the girls grilled "cheese" sandwiches again. We all need comfort food, right? Thanks, Steph. We'll announce the winner early next week. Share the link on your blogs, won't you? Click the headline to pull the URL.
