"If you think being gluten-free means eating a diet of white rice and starches, think again. Leslie’s innovative recipes show us
just how broad and delicious this regimen can be… and healthy, too. "
Beth Hillson, Founder, Gluten-Free Pantry, Food Editor, Living Without Magazine
"With our health and the health of our planet in mind, Cerier
has successfully created exquisite culinary sensations using grains, exotic
rices, fruits, and vegetables."
Tina Turbin, contributing writer for the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness, Awareness Magazine, and other publications
"Leslie’s wonderfully tasty recipes make it so much easier to get the daily requirements of whole grains that are so important for our gluten-free diet. She offers a tantalizing array of main courses, breakfasts, sides, and sweets that are supremely satisfying. Every gluten-free kitchen needs a copy of this book. —Carol Fenster, author of 1,000 Gluten-Free Recipes”
"The perfect primer for getting acquainted with a wide range of lesser- known whole grains, whether you're following a
gluten-free diet or not. The general information on how to cook grains to control texture and taste is invaluable, and the
many recipes are creative and original."
Cynthia Harriman, Director of Food and Nutrition Strategies for the Whole Grains Council and its parent organization, Oldways.
Our non-profit organization created the Whole Grain Stamp – now being used on more than 3,400 products in 20 countries – and we
serve as a major information hub for all things whole grain.

In her inimitable style, Leslie Cerier presents a wealth of seasonal recipes for the gluten-free cook that are as flexible as they
are healthy and delicious. No one will feel deprived with such luscious dishes as Hearty Greens and Tofu in Tahini Sauce or Banana
Buckwheat Pancakes with Pecans. Best of all, these recipes aren't only for those with dietary restrictions—a wealth of ideas awaits
anyone who loves fresh produce and whole grains in creative combinations.
—Nava Atlas, author of Vegan Express and Vegan Soups and Hearty Stews for All Seasons
“Millions suffer needlessly not knowing their chronic illnesses, digestive problems, headaches, autoimmune diseases, joint pain,
weight gain, depression, fatigue and more are caused by eating a staple in our diet – a little pesky protein called gluten found
in wheat, barley and rye. Leslie Cerier’s new cookbook opens a world of food wonder and delight making gluten free eating an
inviting celebration of flavors, textures and colors. The side effect is weight loss, energy, and for many relief of serious
chronic illnesses. For anyone who wants to celebrate food while getting healthy and living lightly on the planet this cookbook
is your guide.
Mark Hyman, MD, author of New York Times bestseller, UltraMetabolism, The Simple Plan for Automatic Weight Loss.

Praise for Going Wild in the Kitchen
Since taking your class in January my two friends and I have had a great time reading, cooking and eating from your cookbook
"Going Wild in the Kitchen". I personally have an extensive cookbook collection ranging from the Classics, to international
cuisines, to books from church fundraisers from around the country. I now find myself reaching for your cookbook most of the
time. "Going Wild in the Kitchen" contains all that a great cookbook offers: ease of organization, readability and receipt
preparation, classic tastes that can be enjoyed by all, whether first time cooks or seasoned gourmets and the invitation to
expand ones own repertoire of gardening, cooking and eating aided by many charts and tips for a personal twist on a receipt.
I loved your cooking videos for making your own flavored oils and vinegars...music was classy and very soothing to listen to
reflecting your voice, the wealth of knowledge and tips given in the video was generous reflecting your spirit, the colorful
inside-outside earth connection embraces all of us in visual nourishment. I could smell and taste the joy! Thanks and keep
them coming!
Love and Best Wishes --- Paula O'Brien, D.Ay ---
