About Loubna

Hi, I'm Loubna. I started this site because of my son. A few years back, we found out gluten was not his friend. Suddenly the foods he loved — the bread, the pasta, the after-school snacks — were off the table, and I had to figure out how to feed him without making him feel like the odd one out at every meal.

At first, I did what every parent does: I bought every gluten free product on the shelf. Some were okay. Most were expensive, dry, or tasted like a cardboard box. I got tired of watching him push his plate away. So I started cooking and baking from scratch, testing recipes in my own kitchen until they tasted like the real thing.

Everything on this site is developed that way. If a recipe is here, I've made it more than once — usually three or four times — and my family has actually eaten it. If it doesn't work, it doesn't get published. Period.

You'll find a lot of weeknight dinners, easy gluten free recipes for kids, treats that don't taste "gluten free," and plenty of meals that work for the whole family, not just the person avoiding gluten. Many recipes are also dairy free, vegan, or simple to adapt.

My goal is simple: I want gluten free eating to feel normal, not like a compromise. If I can make one parent's day a little easier, this whole thing is worth it.
