Dedication

I dedicate this book to all of the amazing people in the GSDF Community, our private FaceBook support group and for all the graduates of the GSDF 8-part Basics Course. These people have touched my heart in so many ways. As they learned to cook and live gluten, sugar, dairy free for medical and health reasons. I watched them get some of their independence back as they learned prep secrets and easy recipes. I heard from others as they began to get some of their health back, their hope back and most of all, not feel alone and confused again. Every day I watch them bravely try new ingredients, recipes or ways of doing things and I have the honor to witness their lives transform.

I dedicate this book to those that have felt overwhelmed, alone, frustrated and in physical pain due to food allergies or other medical illnesses that have you eating without gluten, sugar and dairy.

Our community at Gluten, Sugar, Dairy Free has continued to grow every week! Here are some of our testimonials:

Acknowledgments

My Partner

I would like to acknowledge my partner who saw my passion for food, flavor profiles and writing recipes. He encouraged me to write all my recipes into new gluten, sugar, dairy free ones and built me the website to showcase them. That website turned into more than a recipe site as the community grew and we became an education and information site as well.

He supported me even when I got overwhelmed, doubted my ability to get everything done and always encourages me. His brilliant ideas of how to get this information out to those that most desperately need it has been invaluable. I am blessed to have him by my side, guiding me, supporting me and always being there no matter what or the miles that sometimes separate us. Because of him, I am able to follow my passion and for that I am grateful.
