Iris Higgins is the author of TheDailyDietribe.com, a popular blog where she shares gluten-free recipes and her experiences with food and life. She focuses on using healthy ingredients to make dishes that everyone will love. Her first two cookbooks, with co-author Brittany Angell, take the mystery out of gluten free baking. The Essential Gluten Free Baking Guides include over 100 gluten, dairy, and soy free recipes, as well as hundreds of tips for both new and experienced gluten free bakers. Iris has a master's degree in psychology from New York University, and is currently working on a second master's degree in nutrition from Bastyr University. In addition to writing her blog, Iris divides her time between school and individual weight-loss counseling with her clients. She is the recipe developer for the Replenish PDX/Barre3 Core Values Detox Program (http://corevaluesdetox.com), and was recently a featured speaker at the Dallas Gluten & Allergen Free Expo.
