About the Author
In addition to celiac, I also have 17 food allergies. And I'm deathly allergic to peanuts, can't even be near someone who just ate a peanut-y stack or I could end up in the ER.I'm still learning how to live and eat well despite a very restricted diet, which (due to my peanut allergy) also means a restricted life.

“This is my invariable advice to people: Learn how to cook- try new recipes, learn from your mistakes, be fearless, and above all have fun!”
~ Julia Child, My Life in France“The only real stumbling block is fear of failure. In cooking you've got to have a what-the-hell attitude.”
~Julia Child“...no one is born a great cook, one learns by doing.”
~Julia Child, My Life in France"Those who forget the pasta are condemned to reheat it."
~Author Unknown"After all the trouble you go to, you get about as much actual 'food' out of eating an artichoke as you would from licking 30 or 40 postage stamps." ~Miss Piggy

Debi’s Confetti Salad
I’ve shared this recipe before, but I had to post it on The Crunchy Cook again when I realized yesterday that it’s one of the few recipes previously posted on my blog that I can still eat. I can eat … Continue reading
Debi’s Sour Cream and Cheese Enchiladas

Tomato and Tuna "Sandwich" (gluten-free)
One of my biggest complaints about a lot of gluten-free cookbooks is that they focus almost exclusively on how to bake breads. Now, there’s nothing wrong with a piece of toast now and then. But prior to going gluten-free I … Continue reading
