Today’s guest post is by my better half, the man “behind the curtain” in this Glutadoodle Oz of ours. Without Mike’s love and support, I never would have been able to go on this 18 month journey of self discovery and seeking out the answers to our family’s health issues. Little did he know 9 […]
Dairy-Free Buckeyes
I shared this recipe last year but it contained dairy-filled chocolateso I thought I would share how I went about making a dairy-free version this year.

Homemade Marshmallows: Corn-Free and Egg-Free (and Heidi’s Favorite Dairy-Free Hot Cocoa)

It’s funny, […]
Goldbaum’s Gluten-Free Ice Cream Cones, Crackers & Pasta
I recently received several complimentary gluten-free products from Goldbaum’s to sample and review on my blog. I have been ordering Goldbaum’s gluten-free ice cream “cake-style” cones for a few years now, but that is all I had tried up until this point (and we love them!). GF mom tip: the cake-style cones are handy snacks […]
Gluten-Free Condensed Mushroom Soup Recipe
I found this recipe by accident really. I was researching what condensed soups really are (in order to have a starting point for improving the condensed soup recipes that I had used in the past), and a Google Search took me to a YouTube video showing Crystal Godfrey of Everyday Food Storage (see the video […]
