Working On My Cookbook


I am so excited to finally be working on my cookbook! Having a child who is not only gluten free, but also casein, egg, soy, rice, corn and yeast free is really a challenge when it comes to baking. Every bakery and pre-made mix requires eggs or has rice flour in it, making it obsolete for us. Also, at the moment there is no place to buy a birthday cake, cupcake, cookie, cracker, etc. for my daughter. This is what lead me to start my cookbook, but is also having me toying with an even bigger undertaking. More to come on that later!

Anyway, the cookbook is in it's infantile stages but at least it's underway. I want to throw an idea out there. If there is a recipe you would like converted to gluten, dairy, egg free and you wouldn't mind my using it in my cookbook, please email it to me. I'll title it however you like in the cookbook if you allow me to use it. I've started doing this with my family's favorite recipes and I love knowing that Aleks is eating a variation of my mom's chocolate chip cookies. If you're interested just email me and send me the original recipe, what you'd want it called and I'll start working on converting it into one of my own recipes.

Also, I'll be co-hosting Twin Cities Live(ABC/Ch.5 @ 3pm) on Thursday October 28th and doing a gluten free cooking segment. I'll be featuring my gluten, casein, egg free cut out sugar cookie recipe. It's perfect for Halloween cookies!

God Bless-
