Guess what!? Tomorrow, November 3rd 2018, is my 10 Year Celiac-Anniversary! This is a huge deal! It's been a decade! That's so crazy to me! It's a weird feeling, because part of my brain feels like I'd always been eating "normal" and the other half feels like I've only ever been eating gluten-free. I mean, in a few more years I'll have been gluten-free for longer than I had not been. Hard to wrap my head around it all! In celebration for this milestone, I'm hosting a delicious sweet giveaway over on my Instagram that will run through next week! Make sure to enter when the post goes up later today!SS Posts from the week: Monday: Baked Creamy Vegan Gluten-Free Spinach Artichoke Pasta (Allergy-Free) Wednesday: Sweet Gluten-Free Rosemary & Fig Quick Bread (Vegan, Allergy-Free) … Read More...

Your favorite party dip transformed into a creamy dairy-free pasta bake! This Baked Creamy Vegan Gluten-Free Spinach Artichoke Pasta is top 8 allergy-free, full of veggies, and cheesy flavor! It's a cozy recipe for an easy weeknight family dinner that the kids will love too!Spinach artichoke dip is something I always associate with my mom. She was always the one who jumped at any chance you could indulge in that creamy, cheesy, hot dip. It was something she would always order as an appetizer at restaurants or dig into first at parties and gatherings. Honestly, it was never something I chose to dip my chips into. I much preferred something like this, but alas, it grew on me as I got older (and ironically could no longer have it!) So I took it upon myself to remake spinach artichoke dip into a full on meal! One that's gluten-free, vegan, allergy-free; most importantly dairy-free! … Read More...

Get those costumes ready! It's Halloween weekend! Having actual Halloween day during the week...on a Wednesday is no fun. School-night Halloweens were the worst growing up, but not much control over that one! I always loved staying up late, eating a bunch of candy after a (cold) but fun night's work of trick-or-treating. We'd come home, dump out our FILLED pillowcases of candy, sort, and start the exchange and trade process. We NEVER finished our pounds and pounds of candy, but always had a piece (or 3) a day for awhile until we forgot about it, haha! My mom would also always put a piece in our lunchboxes which always made lunch that much better! The good old days! I'll probably just put on a few scary movies or have the Halloween movie marathon on...too old for treats?SS Posts from the week: Monday: Gluten-Free Crustless Sweet Potato Pie (Vegan, Allergy-Free, Paleo) Wednesday: Mom's Best Classic Gluten-Free Vegan Baked Ziti (Soy-Free) … Read More...

Mom’s Best Classic Gluten-Free Vegan Baked Ziti (Soy-Free)

October 24, 2018 By Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine 34 Comments

Our family's favorite famous comfort food recipe, remade! Mom's Best Classic Gluten-Free Vegan Baked Ziti without the dairy, but still under 5 ingredients! This make-ahead "cheesy" pasta dinner casserole is soy-free too, super easy, delicious, and baked in 20 minutes! Great as a freezer meal or having leftovers throughout the week!My mom didn't cook things from scratch much. She was more of a "throw these chicken nuggets in the toaster oven and this packet of rice in a pot" kind of cook. Every so often she would get the urge to make her "famous" baked ziti recipe. While this Italian pasta casserole only needed 4 ingredients (she used jarred sauce), it still tasted like home-cooked comforting love! While I grew up eating her baked ziti, she and I both can't indulge in the cheesy carby comfort food anymore...until now. … Read More...
