Who doesn't love a creamy chilled lunch salad sandwich? From chicken salad to chickpea salad, they're all always such a classic lunch option. We're taking this one up a few notches though. Nothing classic here, but still all delicious. Picture a combo of black eyed peas, crunchy veggies, sweet grapes, and a creamy curried dairy-free yogurt sauce. You don't have to picture it, you can see it, and go make it in a few minutes after you read this recipe!

So yummy and of course, stuffed between some good gluten-free bread. This little lunch was made last summer when I was obsessed with using So Delicious coconut yogurt in EVERYTHING. When I had finally gotten my hands on the big containers of the unsweetened yogurt locally, I couldn't not keep it stocked in the fridge. It sure did, and still does, come in handy. One thing I've been dieing to try and make in the kitchen is my own coconut yogurt. I heard using this to make it could work, but I also have this...hm.

We'll figure it out eventually! Dairy-free yogurt will always be relevant! Apparently what's also relevant is this little influx of sandwiches I've been posting! I didn't plan it, it just happened. Now that July is over, I can already feel the hurry of the new school year and hectic times for anyone, kids or not, coming. I personally just block it all out until the last minute, but maybe these lunch ideas are some intuit signs that my body secretly knows summer freedom won't last! Or maybe I just like sandwiches and wraps?

You can also eat this as a cool creamy salad too! Black eyed peas, carrots, celery, and those sweet red grapes all with a curry spiced yogurt twist! Just give me a fork (spoon?) already! There are so many flavors and textures that each mouthful is a burst of yum! You'd never know it's nice and healthy, nutritious, and super satisfying while still being perfectly gluten-free, vegan, and allergy-free! A plant-based power lunch win!

    I love black eyed peas and have some awesome curry powder I've been finding ways to use, even had grapes on hand, I don't usually. There's no way I could wait for the flavors to marry in the frig, I had to have a sandwich right away. I love this stuff! I think I'll bring some on my next camping trip. Can't wait to try more of your recipes, thanks!

Celiac Disease is NOT a food allergy 🚫🍞 So Celiac Disease is NOT a food allergy 🚫🍞

So many people still confuse the two, but it’s an autoimmune disease, not an allergy. That means gluten doesn’t cause an immediate allergic reaction resulting in hives or swelling…it causes your immune system to attack your small intestine longterm. 

This distinction matters because:
👉 There’s no medication or quick fix
👉 The only treatment is a strict, lifelong gluten-free diet
👉 Mislabeling it as an “allergy” is scientifically incorrect. There is no such thing as a gluten allergy.

Swipe through to learn why the distinction is inportant and why accurate education and awareness is paramount. Let’s set the record straight and not mislabel our disease when speaking about it. 💛
