Welcome to my blog! I want to share my epic journey to discovering healthful and flavourful food while living gluten-free and with severe food allergies. Navigating shopping and cooking has always been a challenge for me. Actually just getting into the grocery stores with fresh fish markets was dangerous. I once left a grocery store by ambulance because the fresh shrimp sent me into an allergic reaction. I want to share my success stories so others can avoid the pitfalls and challenges related to shopping and cooking healthy gluten-free and allergy free meals.

Where do you fit in with all these trends? Will you label yourself a flexitarian or maybe a foodie? Will you be brand specific or jump on the bandwagon and say NO to sugar and completely cut it from your diet? What I know is true – I am cooking more healthier and I love it all the new lessons it has been teaching me because I feel great.
Epicure has taught me so much about myself, my eating habits (even when I did not want to be reminded) and has taken my cooking skills to a whole new level. It also exposed me to flavours that I never imagined or cuisines I never thought I would be able […]
My earliest versions of Lemon Chicken were quite simple with pounded out chicken breasts, coated with white rice flour, salt & pepper and fried on the stove with a little olive oil.
Cooking double batches at dinner to use as leftovers or to re-purpose some for another meal is a great way to save time and work more efficiently in the kitchen. This meal planning strategy really works at cutting time spent on prepping, cooking, and the dreaded cleanup.

earn free stuff & half off items
introduce your friends to healthy meal solutions

Southern Baked Chicken, where have you been all my life?
Southern Baked Chicken is one of Epicure’s Meal Solutions that meets their ‘Raw to Ready in 20 minutes’ time frame and is completely healthy. You can bake healthier chicken pieces, popcorn chicken or chicken fingers. Bake a Southern style chicken with all the flavour of deep fried chicken without the added fat and extra calories. It’s completely gluten-free made with chia and psyllium husk.
Avoiding gluten goes much further than simply removing those gluten containing foods, it also involves changing routines, kitchen work spaces and possibly appliances, eating out and travel options, as well as your relationships with others
