I am excited to share with you recipes that I have created or recipes from friends and family. The ingredients I will use are gluten-free because I personally eat gluten-free foods. I also eat a mostly plant based diet. There is the smallest amount of sugar in my diet, and when it does appear, it is natural sugar. I will use monk fruit (erythritol free), stevia, and organic coconut sugar as my sweeteners. Some of the flours I use are packaged and have some sugar.
I love cooking, I love baking, but sometimes there’s just not enough time in my day to spend hours in the kitchen. I also understand that some people don’t love cooking or baking at all, which just makes things even harder when you’re trying to maintain a special diet. There are a lot of special diet recipes out there, but unfortunately, many of them are complicated and time-consuming. Many require a lot of ingredients that you might have to go out of your way to purchase, and sometimes, when you go to all that trouble, the recipe isn’t even that good!
My goal here is to make cooking and baking as easy as possible. I’m also here to make sure you don’t have to spend hours searching for the perfect special diet recipe. I hope you enjoy them. Happy cooking!
