May is Celiac Disease Month. Celiac disease has over 300 symptoms and they aren’t all digestive related. Symptoms can include depression, anxiety, and brain fog. Even once diagnosed and off the gluten some mental health issues can continue. Society, in the US, at least revolves around food. You may not notice it when you can…

Cookie Monster
Gluten free cookies have come a long way in the past six or so years. This is both good and bad. Good for my taste buds but bad for my waistline. I feel like I’ve been inhaling cookies for the past few months. When I was first diagnosed pickings were slim. And it seemed every…
Sam’s Famous Salsa
We eat a lot of salsa in our house. There is usually a jar in the fridge and two to three backups in the pantry. We put that ish on everything. Tacos. Burritos. Eggs. Chips. Salad. I am always willing to try new salsa. And this week I was lucky enough to receive a box…
Carbs! Carbs! Carbs!
Many people tend to equate a gluten-free diet with low carb. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I find that hilarious. I am gluten-free and completely addicted to carbs. They are some of my favorite foods! And I’m always excited to try new carbs. As a blogger for the Nourished Festival, I received many samples. So many, I am combining…
The Soulfull Project
Oatmeal makes a great pre-run meal. And when you eat it every weekend, you need a variety of flavors. It also doesn’t hurt to find one that does good. Enter The Soulfull Project. The Soulfull Project is like the Bombas of oatmeal. With every serving you buy, a serving is donated to your local food…
Grab the Gold
It’s peanut butter jelly time! I’m always looking for new bars to add to my afternoon snack rotation. Of course, they need to be gluten-free. And there is a lot of BAD gluten-free bars on the market. So I jumped at the chance to try a new to me bar, Grab the Gold, as a…
Homefree Cookies
I love sweets. If I could, I would eat candy and cookies all day, every day. Going gluten free has been difficult because gluten makes all those baked goods (and pizza) yummy. But over the years, I’ve found brands I like and would buy again. I’ve also eaten a lot of bad cookies. As a…
Flax 4 Life
For some reason, I was hesitant to try Flax 4 Life. In my head I thought flax = healthy and it will be awful. Except I’ve had flax before, and I like it. Apparently I was having some sort of out-of-body experience. Because I was wrong. Everything I’ve had from Flax 4 Life has been…
Mac n Cheese: It’s the Cheesiest!
Mac and cheese is one food I’ve really missed since having to go gluten-free. I’ve tried every brand and style I came across. Boxed, frozen, you name it; I tried it. I even bought plain gluten-free pasta and cheese sauce and tried to make my own. But I was never quite satisfied. Some frozen bowls…
I Miss Pizza
It’s always stressful to try a new restaurant or a different dish somewhere. You never know if it’s safe or if you’ll end up glutened. I’ve been missing pizza. Real pizza, not the frozen stuff I get at the store. I want to eat thick crust, greasy pizza. All the gluten free pizza I eat…
