Product Description
Wheat-free-cooking expert Carol Fenster reveals her time-saving tips and techniques to help cooks put homemade meals on the table in a flash.
In Carol Fenster's gluten-free cooking classes, the most frequently asked question is "How can I get a meal on the table in the least amount of time?" So often, cooking gluten-free means spending hours in the kitchen-making everything from scratch. But now, Fenster reveals all her shortcuts, tips, and timesaving techniques from nearly twenty years as the gluten-free cooking authority. The Quick & Easy principles in this book will get cooks in and out of the kitchen with less fuss than ever before.
In Gluten-Free Quick & Easy, a hot meal makes it to the table without a complicated ingredient list or a lengthy wait. Fenster emphasizes the necessity of "planned-overs"-not "left-overs"- that creatively use elements of one meal in the preparation of another, whether it becomes an ingredient the next day, the next week, or the next month. Recipes for make-ahead baking mixes and techniques to shorten baking times means cooks stay on track. And her comprehensive menu plans and ideas help pull together a week's worth of meals with ease.
Fenster's simple but delicious recipes include favorites like hearty breads, pizzas, and pasta. In less time than ever before, gluten-free cooks can whip up homestyle entres and side dishes, tasty breakfasts, and elegant desserts for every meal of the day, every day of the week.

 This book delivers . . . eventually. July 6, 2008

First a warning, regarding anything you have to bake, it is not quick and easy the first time you make it. In fact, if you don't follow her suggestions and make a big batch of her flour blend, her baking mix blend, her yeast mix blend etc, and keep on hand in your kitchen, then this adds time and many extra steps to her recipes. I was not feeling too friendly to Carol until I tasted the end result, very delicious, very yummy, worth all the effort. I highly recommend her gluten free zucchini bread and her gluten free pizza. I am now a believer! Will buy Fenster's other cookbooks as well.

This is the cookbook I chose to give to a newly diagnosed friend - great recipes, healthy and easy to find ingredients - and I like it so well I've pre-ordered her new book even though I don't bother to consult GF cookbooks that much any more. Fenster's oven-fried chicken is the best I've ever tasted, her lasagna doesn't require you to cook the noodles first, etc., and there are some imaginative dishes you don't normally see (even schnitzel!). Everything I've tried has been great. The only complaint I have about Fenster's book is that it would be helpful to have a chart giving ingredients for making 2, 4, etc. cups of her flour mixes. Her bread mix recipe makes 12 3/4 cups and includes 4 cups of another of her mixes as an ingredient - really a pain to calculate ingredients for the 3 cups needed to make her French bread. But I must admit the results are worth it. Her bread's very easy (especially if you have an electric oven - it rises while the oven heats) and has a great texture.

The recipes are great but I am a visual person when it comes to recipes. Little or no color pics left me a little less than excited about my purchase

This cookbook is the best gluten-free cookbook I've tried. My family loves the recipes, and the author really understands "real world" cooking, practical, quick and easy, both adult and kid-friendly, with excellent time-saving tips.
A Cookbook to Reach for Time and Time Again! April 2, 2008

I have been gluten-free for two years now and have come to realize that most gluten free recipes are complex due to having to replace gluten with multiple ingredients to get a satisfactory taste and texture. Because of that, most of the cookbooks I own by Bette Hagman-although they are wonderful, too-just sit on my shelf unused. Who has time for 15 ingredients?
Gluten-Free Quick and Easy may have some recipes that have many ingredients, but the majority of them are common ingredients are fewer ingredients than other cookbooks.
Some of my favorite recipes are: Baja Fish Tacos, Chicken Pot-Pie, Chicken Fajitas, Monte Cristo Sandwiches, Tacos with Chile-Lime Chicken, Rueben Sandwiches (to die for!), Sloppy Joe Wraps, and more.
This is the book I recommended to my sister who is also gluten intolerant but doesn't observe the diet because she thinks it is too hard and too restrictive. This book is proof otherwise.
Bon Apetit!
