Gluten-Free Living

About Jennifer


Welcome, welcome!  I'm so glad you stopped by.  I'm  Jenn - or Jennifer to some, and Jennie to the select few who've known me since my pigtail days back in Upstate New York. My journey from the cold, long winters to the sun-kissed landscapes of North Carolina over twenty years ago was fueled by my love for gardening and savoring nature's warmth as much as I could.

Amongst the twists and turns of 2020, my love for gardening and culinary creativity intertwined more profoundly, offering you a cozy corner to share the joy of crafting gluten-free and dairy-free deliciousness that nourishes and dazzles your taste buds.

In my search for healthy and tasty foods, I’ve explored the age-old arts of canning, dehydrating, infusing, and fermenting. Each technique offers flavors and health benefits, extending the life of our cherished produce and bringing complex flavors to our dishes. 

As a self-taught cook, my kitchen adventures have taught me more than a textbook ever could. Here, I’ve learned that the essence of great food doesn’t come from strict adherence to recipes, but from the joy and creativity of cooking.  With my camera in one hand and a spatula in the other, I'm on a mission to prove that a dish without gluten or dairy is an invitation to an exciting, flavorful experience.

So, if you're ready for a pinch of adventure and for your tastebuds to do the happy dance, Welcome to my blog!

About Me

Hi, I’m Jenn! 👋 I’m so glad you’re here!
I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed when trying to make healthier choices. For over 20 years, I’ve been on a journey to create a gluten-free and low-tox lifestyle that doesn’t feel restrictive, complicated, or expensive. My mission is to help busy women like you transition to a healthier home and diet—without the stress.

Why I Do This

My journey started when I realized that many of the foods and products I was using every day were impacting my health. I have gluten sensitivity, and several family members also follow a gluten-free diet. But I didn’t want to feel like I was missing out on delicious food or spending hours researching safe products. So, I set out to simplify the process!
As I started reading labels and swapping out processed foods, skincare, and cleaning products for safer, healthier alternatives, I noticed a huge difference in how I felt. It became clear that small, intentional swaps make a big impact—and I want to help you do the same.

What You’ll Find Here

🌿 Gluten-Free Recipes – Easy, delicious meals your whole family will love.
🌿 Low-Tox Living Tips – Simple swaps for skincare, personal care, and home products.
🌿 Budget-Friendly Solutions – Healthy living shouldn’t break the bank!
🌿 Step-by-Step Guidance – Small, manageable changes that create lasting results.

My Philosophy

Healthy living should feel simple, not stressful.
You don’t have to do everything at once—small changes add up.
✨ 
You deserve to feel your best without sacrificing taste, convenience, or budget.

Let’s Make Healthy Living Simple!
