Cookbook Review: Cooking for Isaiah - Gluten Free & Dairy Free Recipes for Easy, Delicious Meals


A few weeks ago General Mills invited my family to attend an exclusive cooking demonstration in Seattle by Silvana Nardone,  author of the recently released Cooking for Isaiah cookbook.  The cooking demonstration was actually part of Silvana's Cooking for Isaiah book tour, in which she illustrated how to use gluten free Chex cereal in one of the recipes.  My family had the pleasure of tasting such delicious treats as stuffed shrimp scampi, cornbread stacks with spicy greens, and double chocolate Chex pie.  Both the shrimp and cornbread recipes are included in the Cooking for Isaiah cookbook, and they tasted amazing!

I received a copy of Cooking for Isaiah to bring home, and was impressed with the unique spin that Silvana has applied to easy family friendly recipes.  All of the recipes in the book were created with Silvana's son Isaiah in mind; she had to learn to prepare gluten free/dairy free recipes that he would enjoy when he was diagnosed with food intolerances.

I am looking forward to trying more of the recipes in Cooking for Isaiah; if they are even half as tasty as the recipes that my family sampled during Silvana's cooking demonstration, then I know my family will love them!

Visit Silvana's Dish Towel Diaries blog for links on where to purchase Cooking for Isaiah.  Be sure to check out the great gluten free recipes posted on Silvana's blog too!
