Welcome to my crazy life!

Hi, I’m Jamie, and I will be sharing my gluten-free life with you! I was diagnosed with RA in 2015 and after a couple years of medication that wasn’t really helping me I started doing my own research. I found that gluten can aggravate autoimmune disorders and in 2017 I started cutting it out of my diet. What a difference that made! I was able to quit all of my medication and now live mostly flare-up free! The journey hasn’t always been easy, but it has always been worth it. 

When I first started avoiding gluten it was a real challenge to find things I could eat. Going out was a pain because when I would ask if something was gluten-free I would usually just get confused looks. Walking down the aisles in the grocery store was torture as I saw all the delicious foods I used to eat but no longer could. Over the past couple of years though I have noticed a shift, more people are ditching gluten (and other allergens) and companies are noticing. There are still challenges of course but it has become so much easier.

So if you’re also on this journey, or you have someone in your life who is, let me share some recipes and inspiration with you. Gluten-free doesn’t have to mean boring!
