Mixin' it up

So recently, my lil sis (she also has celiac disease) has started really exploring the whole world of gluten free cooking and baking. She has really motivated me to start trying some new options. I haven't done much since I was diagnosed and have kept it very simple with my eating habits. So since things are slowing down on the home front, I think I might take a stab at it! To start off on my own baking and cooking exploration, I decided to start with the basics. First up different mixtures of flours to replace the glutenous flours of my past. Here are a few I recently found online. Try them out and let me know which you liked best or even if you found the holy grail, ALL PURPOSE MIXTURE, that can be used for everything and has the same taste and texture of regular flour!
