Years after my husband and son were diagnosed, I became discouraged with all the negativity surrounding Celiac Disease and the struggles of people with food allergies. A researching journalist at heart, I began  meeting with lots of other people struggling with Celiac Disease, gluten intolerance and other food allergies. Turns out, I wasn’t the only one who was discouraged. The common complaints were, “There is nothing for me to eat,” “I’ll never enjoy food again,” and “This lifestyle is just too hard!” After committing to the gluten-free lifestyle myself, I began to see it from a new perspective.

It became my quest to seek out the most delicious food recipes and take amazing recipes already out there and tweak them for the right person. I found a passion for showing others dealing with food allergies and intolerances that it could be a beautiful thing. I was delighted that a simple diagnosis could cause people to take charge of their health; to look closer at the foods they eat and to read labels for their own safety. These are the attributes severely lacking in the mainstream American diet today.

After eliminating other food allergies, I found the gluten-free diet to give me energy, clarity, migraine-free, better mood, healthier days, and I want the whole world to experience just how delicious a gluten-free diet can be.

In our issues you will find gourmet, scrumptious, easy SemiHomemade, GF on a budget, Healthy and Fresh, fully illustrated recipes that will suite the gluten-free, casein-free dairy-free, nut-free, egg-free, soy-free and rice-free diets. I hope you enjoy!

Nice to meet you! Can’t wait to hear about you!
