Cookbooks


Deliciously G-free, by Hasselbeck, Elisabeth. ( 641.3 Has )
Summary
A decade ago, Hasselbeck, co-host of ABC's "The View," was diagnosed with celiac disease, and the family recipes she grew up with suddenly became strictly off-limits. Or so she thought. Getting rid of gluten, however, doesn't have to mean giving up taste. "Deliciously G-Free" combines Hasselbeck's knowledge for healthy living and passion for tasty food to bring readers 100 delectable, easy-to-make, and family friendly gluten-free recipes.

Easy Chinese Recipes, by Low, Bee Yinn. ( 641.5951 Low )
Summary
Growing up in a Chinese household in Malaysia where cuisine and culture were inseparable, Bee Yinn Low developed a deep love and appreciation for food. Her early memories of helping her mother prepare steamy and fragrant Chinese meals solidified into a way of life for Bee as a working woman in Southern California. A love of Chinese food didn't translate well to a modern Western lifestyle due to time and ingredient constraints. Rather than give up her favorite foods, Bee experimented with recreating the unforgettable flavors of her youth with her limited time and using ingredients found in local supermarkets. She managed to develop versions of her favorite Chinese dishes that had all the taste--but were a lot less work!
