HOW TO MAKE A SIMPLE AND DELICIOUS GLUTEN FREE AND VEGAN PIZZA IN UNDER 50 MINUTES
I would never in a million years have thought I’d be able to make a gluten free and vegan pizza base from scratch, but I promise you it’s not hard and you’ll absolutely love it.
This pizza could be a large pizza for one or perfect for sharing; typically my husband and I share one, and that gives us 4 slices each.
SUPER SIMPLE TOMATO SOUP / SAUCE – GLUTEN FREE AND VEGAN
The other day I bought 10lbs of tomatoes for $10 from a farmers market! I didn’t really put any thought into what I would do with them, I just knew it was too much of […]
THE PERFECT AUTUMNAL SOUP THAT REQUIRES ONLY 4 INGREDIENTS – GLUTEN FREE AND VEGAN
I don’t know about you, but for me autumn/fall equals soup. So recently I’ve been on a soupfest making so many that my freezer is now jam-packed full.
This yellow split pea soup requires only 4 ingredients – sweet potatoes, carrots, yellow split peas, water, and if you want you can add in salt and pepper.
CHOCOLATE COCONUT BITES – GLUTEN FREE AND VEGAN
Now I don’t want to be all boasty and blowing my own trumpet here, but holy smokes these are damn good.

4 INGREDIENT COOKIES – GLUTEN FREE AND VEGAN
These cookies are my standard go-to cookie as they take less than 15 minutes to make, bake and start eating!
WANT TO EAT HEALTHILY, BUT DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START? THESE ARE THE 5 THINGS I DID.
First and foremost, that’s awesome you want to take control of your health by being aware and in control of what you eat. When I started out on my clean eating journey in 2015, I was so overwhelmed with all the conflicting advice; it really can be difficult knowing what actually is healthy.
I started going through my cupboards/pantry/fridge/freezer to see what was easily identifiable as unhealthy. Rather than putting it all in the bin – I hate being wasteful and throwing money away – I slowly used all those items up. So whether that was having a biscuit once a week as a treat, or having that processed meat in the freezer for dinner with lots of fresh vegetables on the side; it took me months to get rid of everything, but I felt better using it all up and not wasting food.
