Keith Brunel of Maggiano's Little Italy offers Celiac-safe suggestions for approaching Italian cooking in a restaurant. In this chapter, you'll find all your favorite Italian staples, including creamy risottos, pastas, Chicken Parmesan, and even pizza, calzones, and breadsticks.

Then, he includes recipes for traditional Mexican dishes like Corn Tortilla Soup, sizzling Chicken Fajitas, empanadas, and—of course—tacos, as well as modern main dishes like Grilled Chicken with Avocado Salsa.

Review:
"The latest addition to the rapidly expanding universe of gluten-free cookbooks is a breezy, friendly, and straightforward volume from the food and lifestyle editor at Delight Gluten-Free Magazine. It's full of no-nonsense advice ('cheating on the diet is not an option and can lead to long-term complications, so resist temptation to cheat!') and — better yet — flavor. Divided into four sections, the book covers an array of recipes in the Italian, Asian, and Mexican genres, plus desserts. It's not for food snobs (the note at the start of the Italian section comes from the executive chef of the Maggiano's chain), but it does have a lot of accessible, tasty options. Italian dishes include creamy crab and green pea risotto, chicken marsala, and spinach gnocchi with gorgonzola cream sauce. (Note: The food is gluten-free, decidedly not fat-free). In the Asian section, there are shrimp and mint summer rolls; pineapple fried rice; and chicken with cashews. Papaya-cilantro salmon with coconut rice and strip steak with black beans, corn, and cilantro represent Mexico. Desserts range from bananas foster (easy to make sans gluten) to a more complex chocolate fudge cake. With this book, following a gluten-free diet is a fairly sweet prospect."

Synopsis:
Awareness and understanding of Celiac disease and gluten-intolerance has increased dramatically in recent years, and diagnosis rates have skyrocketed. Though it's often misdiagnosed or not diagnosed at all, Celiac disease is estimated to affect nearly 3,000,000 Americans alone. As the only existing treatment is a 100% gluten-free diet, the interest in cookbooks has also increased dramatically. Often when people are first diagnosed, they feel it's a culinary death sentence — no more bread, pizza, pasta, cookies, and other foods they love. Add to that, the gluten-free products sold in markets and health food stores can often be disappointing in flavor and limited in variety. That's where this book comes in. After suffering for years and being diagnosed with Celiac disease herself, author Vanessa Maltin has sought out the best-tasting recipes from around the world without sacrificing flavor. She's become one of the country's leading experts on gluten-free living, but to create this collection of recipes, she consulted with top chefs from around the country. The cookbook is split up into sections for Asian, Italian, and Mexican cuisines — everybody's favorites. The results are 125 recipes so good, you'll never miss the gluten, and if you've got a whole family to feed, you can cook from this book for the whole family, and nobody will feel deprived.
Vanessa Maltin, one of the millions of Americans with Celiac Disease, is the Food & Lifestyle Editor for Delight gluten free Magazine, which serves people with food allergies, Celiac Disease, and other food-related medical conditions. A graduate of the Institute of Culinary Education in New York City, she is a food journalist, a member of the Advisory Board of the Celiac Program at Children's National Medical Center, and the author of the Celiac Princess blog at CeliacPrincess.com.
