GLUTEN-FREE, SUGAR-FREE COOKBOOK




 Golden Braid Books, 151 South 500 East in downtown Salt Lake City,  is holding a book signing by local author Rhiannon Lawrence on June 30 from 6:30 – 8 p.m.
 She will be signing her book “Eat Free – No  Gluten. No Sugar.  No Guilt.”  Her cookbook features recipes that are both gluten-free and sugar-free and has more than 80 recipes for breakfast and brunch dishes, sides and salads, entrees, soups and sweet desserts. From Moroccan lamb burgers to enchiladas to cheesecake, the recipes are simple to prepare, and healing to both the mind and body.

Lawrence focused her cooking creativity on gluten-free and sugar-free recipes when she discovered that she as pre-diabetic and allergic to wheat. She uses various nut flours (such as almond flour and coconut flour) for their added protein and fiber. Instead of refined sugars, she uses either Stevia or organic agave as sweeteners.

Lawrence works with several non-profit organizations and is an advocate for health and nutrition. She lives with her husband, three children, and hiking companion, Lola the boxer dog, in Bountiful, Utah. More of her musings and creations can be found at www.rhi-created.com.
