I had a few mixed emotions when deciding what to do when it came to beauty products. For myself, I’m okay with not being 100% gluten free with certain things, including lotions. I know you have to EAT gluten for it to cause a problem and I certainly do not eat lotion. Or do I?Continue reading “Gluten free lotions”

Jalapeno Tacos
Tacos are one of my favorite things to eat. Not only are they delicious, but they are pretty easy to make (or have delivered)! The shell is the only part that can sometimes give celiacs a little scare. Flour tortillas are obviously not an option, but the corn tortillas are usually pretty safe! Just makeContinue reading “Jalapeno Tacos”
Taco Seasoning
Taco seasoning is one of those staples in my pantry. I used to grab the premixed packages at the grocery store, but they are not always gluten free! To be safe, I make my own with gluten free spices. I always keep some on hand to add to other recipes as well! I usually doubleContinue reading “Taco Seasoning”
Gluten Free Gingerbread Cookies
Gingerbread cookies and holidays are pretty synonymous. You can use this recipe to make gingerbread men but I prefer to “cheat” on this one. Making small 1 inch balls and flattening them with the bottom of a glass dipped in sugar is way easier, and the extra sugar on top gives a nice sweet layer!Continue reading “Gluten Free Gingerbread Cookies”
Gluten Free Oatmeal Cranberry Cookies
Thanksgiving is quickly approaching, though I’m not sure how it got here so soon this year! One of my mom’s favorite treats this time of year are my oatmeal cranberry cookies. I missed enjoying them when I first started living gluten free, but I managed to make a few changes to the recipe and foundContinue reading “Gluten Free Oatmeal Cranberry Cookies”
Pumpkin Gingersnap Cookies
Goodbye Halloween! Hello Thanksgiving! Time to make the transition to the next holiday! Now, I am definitely one of those people that absolutely loves this time of year. However, if I am to be perfectly honest, I may love it a little too much and struggled to NOT pull out the Christmas decorations while lookingContinue reading “Pumpkin Gingersnap Cookies”
Banana Bread Delight
When I was little, my mom and I would spend our weekends at our family house in Michigan. There was a store down the road the sold the BEST banana bread ever. Seriously- I’d eat the entire loaf by the end of the day. This is my favorite recipe for banana bread. The best partContinue reading “Banana Bread Delight”
Pumpkin seeds
Did you know that pumpkin seeds are incredibly healthy? They are terrific sources of heart healthy magnesium, zinc, which is not only great for your immune system but great for your skin, and fiber. I loved carving pumpkins as a kid (okay as an adult, too), but all too frequently we would toss the seedsContinue reading “Pumpkin seeds”
When to fake it…
Fake: adj “having a false or misleading appearance” Come on everyone- we’ve all been there. At one time or another, all of us have wanted to be celiac free and not give as much thought to what we eat like we have been trained to do. We have all come to the point where weContinue reading “When to fake it…”
Essentially yours
A few years ago I was introduced to essential oils by a friend of mine. Being a typical girl, I loved smelling the various fragrances and, as I’m sure most of you can relate, many of the scents triggered specific memories or feelings. Lavender has long been known to have a calming effect and isContinue reading “Essentially yours”
