Welcome!

Hello there! I'm Jane and this is my blog, created by me and my boyfriend Bryan! Together my bf and I have spent many hours in the kitchen coming up with recipes that are gluten free, vegan and, most importantly, tasty! While I know there are lots of gluten free blogs, and lots of vegan blogs, I have yet to find many that do both!! After all, why should those of us with allergies never get to enjoy a vegan lifestyle!? Preposterous!

My goal for this blog is to provide all of you out there with quick, easy recipes that are cheap to make (perfect for the on the go college student, trying to juggle work, school and a social life!) I also hope to include a section on restaurant reviews for vegan gluten free dining! We all know how difficult this can be, and how unhelpful some restaurants are! Here I hope to put some of your fears aside, as I will have tried the food/service first!

One of my main goals though, is for the food to taste good! Bryan has not officially come over to the Vegan side yet (he will occasionally eat something with eggs or milk, despite my evil glares and my lectures about how "I dont know how someone with your intelligence can be so blind!") but when we are home, he always eats my vegan meals with never a complaint, and often will come up with tastey veganized versions of old favorites I never would have thought of!

My entire family suffers from food intolerances (minus my youngest brother, lucky bastard!) and some in addition to being allergic to milk, dairy, eggs, peanuts, fish, and gluten, are also allergic to soy, so for many of my recipes I will try to include a soy free alternative! (That's the plan anyway! Helpful comments are always appreciated!) My sister will be joining us every now and again to add some of her delicious soy free recipes to our blog! Keep a look out for those!!

So this is it! Welcome to my blog!!! I hope you enjoy it, I will try to keep posting frequently to provide you all with new meals to add to your repetoire!

Happy Eating,
Jane
