A lifestyle food blog on how to avoid gluten and learn about your allergy. Okay- here it is. I finally did it. Let's do this already!"

So here I am. Obviously.

This was something I started years ago when I first learned about my first food allergy, gluten. However, I'll go into the boring details later of my journey but I felt “what am I waiting for? Hopefully this will help guide your way through food on this wonderful planet we live on.Let's start with the basics of why you should read up on this kind of stuff:

-If you just discovered your allergy, you're in the right place.

-You have the allergy and you're sick and tired of the same old meals and restaurants, you're in the right place.

-If you think you might have some type of food allergy and not sure what to do, you're in the right place.

-If you're wondering if you should cut wheat and gluten out of your diet just because, you're in the right place (although, I don't advise it and we will go into that later).

-If you think having a food allergy is a complete hoax or bullsh*t... WELL my friend, you're in the right place for this too. My goal is to create an atmosphere of hope that even though you may have 1, 2, or 10 food allergies... that it is possible to live a normal lifestyle. Trust me, no one loves food more than me. I'm Italian, so let's be real, it has been formulated into my genetics before I could even produce a heartbeat. When I began this page, I originally had the intent of bringing awareness to all things gluten. Fast forward two months into this bad boy and POOF I was told that I have 6 additional food allergies. Aint that something! Funny how the universe works. One thing I do know for sure on is anything and everything about gluten. So as you can imagine, the six additional food allergies have thrown a curve ball but I'm ready to take on this challenge. At this point in time, I am currently in the process of eliminating, keeping a food diary, and after two months working these bad boys back into my diet to see how I react to each. Just a little recap… I’m also allergic to the following:

-Baker’s Yeast--yeah, I know. Goodbye desserts, cakes, whatever.

-Wheat--Obviously we already KNEW that!

-Egg Whites—Okay, so all eggs… got it.

-Oats- Could care less. Which obviously ties in with gluten and wheat.

-Soybeans—Cool, that’s in everything too.

-Tomatoes—Practically a sin to my heritage.

-Corn- FML… bye taco Tuesday. Mind you this is ALL under a doctor and nutritionist care so PLEASE don’t do this process without consulting with your medical staff. With that, I am here to help you discover how to live your life without the intimidation of your food allergy. I encourage you to share this page in hopes that it can reach to help others. Please post questions or articles you may have pertaining to having or living with food allergies. I'm so excited to share with you everything I have learned (and continue to learn)!

Going into Thursday waiting for Friday like....
Another win while at ? I was able to have my first (gf) beer flight 🍻. It was amazing! 😎🙃

Okay, this might look like a “plain” burger 🍔 but it literally is the best burger I’ve EVER had.
Took a quick trip to visit one of my besties up in 🌲Portland/Vancouver, WA 🌲and this was the first lunch spot he took us too. They literally ground their own meat and this burger was a mix between a New York strip, ribeye and filet 🤤. Couldn’t do their steak fries but was able to do their out of this world mashed potatoes 🥔. If you’re ever in the area, check this place out!

When French fries 🍟 are LIFE. Let alone, GARLIC fries 🤤. It’s hard to find places that uses a frying oil other than vegetable oil (soy based). So when you do find the places that use something else, you hold on to that with dear life. I can live off this combo for the rest of my existence.
My husband and I went to for dinner to celebrate 1 year of buying our home 🏡✨. So obviously garlic fries were in order. Be sure to check out this cute place, great food and ambiance. Plus! Swipe to look at their beautiful sunflowers as you walk in 🌻🐝.

So I’ve been keeping this under wraps for a few weeks because I guess I just didn’t want to jinx anything. But! I was nominated by my friend and former colleague, (I love you so much 😭) on this amazing opportunity. Words don’t even describe how honored and excited I am to share my story and vision!

This 🌵AZ🌵weather has been super unpredictable. Therefore, led most of us to battle some terrible allergies this week 🤧. After my throat felt as if it was on fire for a couple days, I was desperate to get some cough drops.
Did you know that most medicines are made with high fructose corn syrup? So In this case, I saw these throat lozenges and left without realizing that technically these were made for kids. Long story short, these bad boys don’t have any high fructose corn syrup or common food allergy ingredients and they’re super tasty too. 😎
Oh and my nails? None other than my girl . She’s the best 👌🏼💅🏼

The face you make when you find a GLUTEN FREE rice beer 🍺 that you can pair with a hot sake 🍶 to make the perfect sake bomb💥. Do you know how long it’s been since I could have a sake bomb? 7️⃣ YEARS. .
I’m still giddy about this. Plus the sushi I had was the bomb! 🍣 Be sure to see if your local sushi restaurant carries . Just heads up, it still has malt in it. They use the decoction method (boil herbal or plant material to dissolve the chemicals of the material) so if you’re sensitive like me, it might still affect you. If not, bottoms up baby! 🍻
See my location above where you can get it in AZ (so far that I know)

So a friend gave my a suggestion to step my rice cake game up... avocado 🥑 AND Organic everything bagel seasoning🧂. Yes, they sell that in your stores. Never had a clue this seasoning mixed existed. I always thought you blended it together yourself. Anyway, great new breakfast combo especially if you have to avoid dairy. ✌🏼 you can thank me later. 💙

With temps heating up in the valley of the sun🌞🌵... these sweet treats from is the absolute delight!
Now, I know what you’re thinking... “aren’t you allergic to soy? Don’t you know this has soy in them?”..Correct! However, I’m starting to SLOWLY reintroduce some things back into my diet and see what triggers me or not. So far, I tried these and didn’t feel a reaction to them.
Super yummy and cheap too! Best treats to keep around the freezer or bring to a pool party for dessert 💙

When a FINALLY opens a store on your side of town... they bless you with snacks like this! These were absolutely amazing and tasted just like French fries. All allergy friendly too! They used a canola oil instead of the regular vegetable oils (ahem soy) that other brands use. You’re going to want to stock up- so buy multiple! 🍟
