Hi Reader, Now that we know which teams are playing in the Super Bowl (RIP Broncos 😭), it’s officially time to plan your game-day menu. Game-day food = FUN in my brain. Unlike the holidays, where we stick to the same classics year after year, the Super Bowl is your excuse to go a little wild. Make the decadent dip. Bake the irresistible cookies. Load up on apps (one...or ten)! No matter who you're rooting for, everyone will cheer for a big spread of fun and delicious gluten free food!...

Hi Reader, Historical fiction is my favorite book genre, and I often find myself wishing I could jump right into the story as I read — living in 19th-century New York City or tagging along on the Oregon Trail (ok, maybe for just a couple of hours!). Then I remember how lucky we are to have modern conveniences like indoor plumbing, washing machines, the internet, and crock pots. 😆 With that in mind, today I'm sharing 10 comforting, gluten free crock pot recipes that make dinnertime mercifully...

Hi Reader, Beef Enchiladas are the result of my ongoing quest to find new ways to use my homemade red enchilada sauce (it really is that good!) This is the kind of dinner that smells incredible while it's baking, tastes even better, and has the family asking, "When can we have these again?" Best of all, you can partially or fully assemble everything ahead of time so all you need to do is pop the enchiladas into the oven at dinnertime. I love this meal for us! Pencil this crowd-pleasing,...

Hi Reader, How are you doing on your intention to eat a little healthier in the new year? I've been doing well, minus a nightly draw to these frozen bars that my husband won't stop buying (and I can't stop eating 🙈). They taste like Snickers Ice Cream Bars but have 7 grams of fiber and 4 grams of protein. I mean, hello! Armed with the Healthy + Gluten Free Recipes I'm sharing with you today, I feel like I can eat a wholesome dinner and have my (slightly wholesome) ice cream bar too. If you're...
