Great Cookbook for Young People, October 4, 2006
—J. P.
Lucas (Washington, DC United States) - See all my reviews
"The cook is
fantastic for the young professional. The recipes I've made so far have all been
quick and easy to make and delicious to eat. What more can you ask for in a
cookbook. When I first got this cook book, I flipped through the recipes as I
always do. I found myself stopping on nearly ever page and noting to try the
recipe. This would be a very beneficial book to any young professional with
celiac disease."Beyond Rice Cakes, July 18, 2007

"A wonderful book for all and especially for people who live alone both young and old. Disregard Maltin's "young person" focus. Regardless of your age you will enjoy reading the book and using the recipes. Maltin writes with a practical and humorous view of reality. There are a lot of great tips and good advice in addition to the recipes. I am a senior citizen who lives alone who has cooked a lot of complicated recipes--this is one of my favorite books."Great book, Great author, October 11, 2006
"Beyond Rice Cakes is a fantastic book, and I don't even have Celiac Disease. The recipes are easy to make and taste great too. Maltin's positive attitude about being diagnosed with the disease, and her proactive approach to treating it and helping others to treat it is incredible. Her humorous story telling in this book makes it an even better read and should help convince anyone with the disease that it's best to laugh about it...and eat some fantastic gluten-free foods in the meantime."
