 Living Without, December/January 2011/2012“Gluten-Free Makeovers takes you on a culinary journey that’s as delicious as it is essential…There’s something for every taste—and lots to tempt your taste buds. A must for your kitchen bookshelf.” San Francisco Book Review, 12/6/11“[Hillson’s] approach to gluten-free is living with, not living without. Look for alternatives, not at what you can’t eat. Be curious, Hillson advises, be imaginative, substitute boldly, and have fun…If you’re looking to gain an in-depth understanding of cooking without gluten, Gluten-Free Makeovers is an excellent go-to guide and resource to refer back to again and again.” Midwest Book Review, November 2011“Gluten-Free Makeovers is a straightforward and excellently composed cookbook, it can’t be missed for gluten-free cooks.” Curled Up With a Good Book“Hillson succeeds at making the gluten-free recipes and lifestyle accessible to the reader, breaking down all the information and recipes into bite size bits that are easy to swallow. Simple, attractive recipe layouts and basic lists make the book an easy to follow reference source, while the nine pages of color photographs of some of the dishes will inspire you to start up and persevere in your own gluten-free efforts.” About.com, 11/28/11
