I find that mixing up a big batch of your own gluten-free flour mix is really the way to go in most recipes, as the gluten free mixes out there to purchase often have flours and flavors that I inevitably find too starchy or beany in taste. I like to mix up a big batch to store in the pantry, and use a kitchen scale to get exact weights.
For the most part, I substitute this mixture cup for cup with all-purpose flours in non gluten-free recipes. Or if I’m trying to be really exact, 5 ounces of all-purpose flour and 5 1/2 ounces of whole wheat flour equal a cup, so I’ll measure 5-5 1/2 ounces of gluten-free flour on a per cup basis in recipes.

I cannot eat rice at all. What do you think might take the place of the rice flour? Maybe increase everything else a little? And I am always looking for rice free blends to bake with. Thank you!

I would add 200 grams additional sorghum or swap it for quinoa or amaranth.
I tend to change the mix lately depending on what flours I have, keeping a 70/30 ratio of whole grains to starches. For instance, this had been my blend the last few months:
200 gr sorghum flour
200 gr brown rice flour
200 gr quinoa flour
100 gr amaranth flour
150 gr tapioca starch
150 gr arrowroot starch
