Melissa's Marvelous Meatless Meals...everyday recipes that are free of gluten, dairy, and refined sugar
Dr. Stuart H. Freedenfeld, of Stockton Family Practice, in Stockton, NJ, wrote in the Foreword to Melissa s Marvelous Meatless Meals Between these covers, Melissa has delivered a very readable and eminently useful guide to shopping, preparing and cooking gluten and casein free food that nourishes both body and soul. That it is vegetarian is important for some, and merely an exciting addition for others, but no one will feel deprived with these incredibly delicious vegetarian meals. --Dr. Stuart H. Freedenfeld, M.D.What Readers Are Saying: THANK YOU for this book. I went GF about 6 months ago (long story I won't bore you with). I used to be a vegetarian, and my husband and I talk about going veggie again. However, once I went GF I said there's no way I can give up meat TOO, I can barely eat anything on a restaurant menu as it is. And maybe I won't go 100% veggie, but your cookbook gives me a lot of at-home options. Christine. NJ I have a copy of Melissa's great cookbook. I've only had it for about a month and it's already food-stained and a bit dog-eared. Lots of great info and yummy recipes. Florrie. British Columbia Wonderful recipes, Melissa. THANK YOU! I am fighting fibromyalgia through food allergies, and your book meets all my needs--and has GOOD recipes, too. Even my husband actually eats them. I even sent copies to two of my family. Carol. NJ I learned about your cookbook in the Hunterdon Democrat. As soon as I read your story, I thought about my friend who has Celiac disease. So I purchased a book for her, too. I personally don't have the problem myself, but I still would like to omit gluten from my diet as much as I can. I am always trying to find new ideas and information to maintain a healthy life style. So when I read about your story. I couldn't wait to get your cookbook. I have tried the Kale with garlic and olive oil. The next recipe that I'll want to try will be the buckwheat and bean chili. Also I'll have to try the Jerusalem Artichoke Soup. I have been growing them in my garden for the past 5 years. And there are many more of your recipes that I would love to make but too many to list. Thank you so much for putting this cookbook together. Marlene. NJ My friend loaned me your book and I'm loving it. I've been recently diagnosed with Celiac disease, so am still finding my way around the myriad of information that's out there. I found your book to be informative and the recipes simple and delicious - my family loves the Banana Date muffins! Julia, British Columbia The books arrived and I have already made Beans & Greens to great acclaim. I gave a copy to my dietitian friend and neighbor and she has also said that your book is impressive. Thanks again for publishing the book. I look forward to the next one.... British Columbia We got the book. What a wonderful publication. It is very thorough; your notes are helpful. Love that you have emphasized that the meals are not complicated or time consuming to prepare. I am sure so may who use the book will find cooking and preparing recipes for a family member with dietary problems very helpful. Great job and congratulations! Dorothy. TX A friend of mine is from NJ- she read an article about you in the local paper and called me- I am a vegetarian and celiac, I was so thrilled- I had no idea such a book existed. I love it!
