If I can’t eat gluten, What Can I Eat? 

You’re probably already eating a lot of things that are gluten free. Not to mention that gluten free options are now becoming available at more and more restaurants and supermarkets. There are also a ton of great products that have always been Gluten Free. Give yourself more time when shopping for food. Read the labels, you might be surprised at all the things you’ll find that don’t contain wheat. It feels like a game. The prize is a having your cake and eating it too, without feeling sick after.

If you need to go on a gluten free diet, stop putting it off and just do it. Take it one day at time. Focus on the present moment. Don’t stress about the future and how you’re going to feel in certain situations. When those family dinners or work functions do come up, you just get through it. It can be hard at times, but feeling better is worth it. Besides, there’s usually a gluten free version or recipe you can make at home.

Websites like this one and many others like it, are a great resource for finding new recipes and reminding yourself that there are endless delicious options still. Try making a list of foods that you like that don’t contain gluten and you’ll notice over time that the list will grow larger and larger. It can be an exciting journey to discover a new world of healthier food, if you let it be. Just remind yourself of the good things about being gluten free, like feeling better and loosing weight.

Sorry Tradition…

February 13, 2014 by officially gluten free Leave a Comment

Most of us grew up on a diet consisting of wheat breads, pasta’s and cereals. Our parents bought white flour by the 50 lb bag. Now we use it to feed our family’s. Wheat flour is cheap and delicious, so why wouldn’t we want to use it. After all it’s in all the recipes we use and most of those recipes are tradition.

Sorry Tradition…but I’m just going to alter you a little. Don’t we alter our traditions anyways? Keep what works and throw away what no longer resonates. It’s time we changed our food traditions to food that’s better for us. Let’s eat the food that makes us feel good, instead of the food that we’re told will make us feel good. I mean actually physically feel good, not emotionally feel good because it reminds us of or childhood.

The proof is in the pudding… Going gluten free has made me feel better, so that’s what I’m going to continue to do. I still use the little cooking secrets I learned from my grandmother but I use them when cooking my own new gluten free recipes.

You never know, our grandchildren’s children might make some of our recipes as their own tradition. Or maybe they’ll just take what resonates with them and throw away the rest.
