foodie
Yes, it's true. my photo is next to this definition. Though I am, alas, back to all-liquids (give me smoothies or give me death!), I am reading and reading and experimenting and reading in anticipation of one day (soon, please?) being able to eat "normally". Anticipations include: Soyless tofu, yeast-free breads, stuffed zucchini with mango and currants (just one of many vegetable concoctions I can't wait to try), home-made arugula ravioli, and a full-fledged nutrition plan for gaining 20+ pounds on a vegan diet.
So why am I bothering you with the details of my certifiable obsession? (Come on, Liz, just get to the point.)
In my perusing I came across (lots of!) resources that I am itching to share. These websites are so perfectly wonderful I really can't believe I hadn't come across them before. Today, I break the resource-sharing rules and give you two. The Cinnamon Quill. Go there, now, please. Bookmark it. Read every inch. Gluten-free, with quite a few vegetarian and vegan recipes as well. This site of course led me to another, Elana's Pantry, kept by the author of The Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook. (I'm going to restrain myself from gushing about the amazingness of almond flour; its unique consistency, its health benefits, its perfection in baking, its exorbitant cost...) I cannot stop reading this blog! And I cannot begin to make up my mind about which recipe I am going to try first.
