About the Author Connie Sarros' father almost died due to malnutrition before he was diagnosed with Celiac Sprue. In an effort to help prevent this from happening to other people, Connie became actively involved with Celiac Disease support groups. She has written informative celiac articles which have been published in newspapers and magazines. And she travels throughout the country as a public speaker for the disease. Connie tried to convert her favorite dessert recipes into gluten-free versions for her father. She began writing down her successes, and pretty soon she had filled a notebook...this was the birth of her first cookbook, the Wheat-free Gluten-free Dessert Cookbook. Many celiacs complain about gaining weight once they go on a gluten-free diet. Again Connie began experimenting, taking her favorite recipes and trying to cut down on the calories, leading to the publication of her second cookbook, the Wheat-free Gluten-free Reduced Calorie Cookbook. |
