More and more people are discovered that they have gluten intolerances these days (and many of them have documented their dietary changes on these here interwebs). A gluten-free lifestyle can be a huge adjustment but there are some good cookbooks out there that can help with the transition. One such cookbook is 1,000 Gluten-Free Recipes, which has become the modern-day Joy of Cooking for gluten-free set. This book clocks in at nearly 700 pages and has recipes for just about every dish, baked good, sauce and salad that you could possibly want to prepare. It's not a glossy book with pictures of every recipe, instead it strives to provide delicious foods that appeal to everyone (both the gluten-free and the gluten-full).
However, you don't have to be on a gluten-free diet to enjoy this book and so we're giving away two copies of it to two lucky Slashfood readers. To enter, just leave a comment on this post, making sure to include your email (so that we're able to get in touch with you). The deadline for entry is Monday, November 24th at 12 noon.

I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease when I was 3 years old, along with my brother who was 5 at the time, and have been living gluten free ever since. I grew up feeling awkward in school eating sandwiches made with "funny looking" bread. I couldn't be more thankful for the surge in gluten-free products and cookbooks that have become available in the last couple years.
Thankyou for giving some attention to this life altering problem.

I'm glad you posted about this -- it would be a great gift for a friend of mine who was recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease.

Well now, there's a book I find usefull. I'm not a celiac per se, but I do have a mild intolerance that gives me rashes. I had this for more than 10 years, until I found it was a gluten intolerance.
PS: Please do not include me in the giveway. I'm sure that there are people that need it a lot more.

As we love to entertain and often have to cater to someone that is celiac, the more GF recipes the better!

I have 2 co-workers with celiac and my aunt was just diagnosed last year. This looks like a great cookbook to give them, as well as get for myself so I can cook tasty meals for them.

For the first three years of our relationship, my wife suffered from the worst case of hives many of her doctors had ever seen. No one could figure out the cause either. They always told us to go on a bread and water diet then slowly add food back in until we found out what she was allergic to. Guess what. It was the bread. When she cut Gluten out of her diet suddenly everything else was gone or manageable. I would love to be able to cook delicious gluten-free meals for her and this cookbook would help tremendously.
Thank you for the chance to enter this contest

If I win I plan to give to this to my friend April for Christmas. She has Celiac Disease and somehow doesn't own any gluten-free cookbooks. Thanks!

Now this is certainly something I could use. My mother has celiac and I would love to have a good source of tested, reliable recipes for when I entertain her.

Count me in. As the primary chef of a gluten free household, I hope to transcend wheat-based cooking instead of just emulating. Naturally, I need all the help i can get.

I've been gluten-free for three years now and still haven't got a cookbook - I just kind of do without - so this would definitely be a help around my house!

I just got diagnosed this summer. 1,000 different gluten-free foods sounds good to me. I'm sick of eating the same things over and over.

Oooooh! I can never have enough gluten free recipes! Cooking gluten free seems simple...until you start playing with flours and substitute ingredients, because chemistry suddenly becomes a huge player! So having a cookbook with recipes is always a handy thing for those who can't remember what every flour or substitute does. Please include me in the giveaway!
