Using Social Media to Find Gluten Free Recipes


Being gluten free can be difficult as it is, so why struggle to find things to make or eat. One of the most challenging things about being gluten free is finding a place to go out to eat at. Therefore, I often decide to stay in and make my own meal. Luckily, there are so many gluten free baking blogs and accounts on Instagram and other site, that it makes making your own meal so much easier. The thing about baking gluten free is that gluten free flour does not have the same elasticity as flour with gluten. When you look at a gluten free recipe you will likely see Xanthium Gum or other additives that create the elasticity, so your bread does not crumble as easily. Recently, companies have started to make gluten free flour that you can replace regular flour with one-to-one. This make a world of difference when you are converting a recipe to gluten free.

I follow quite a few gluten free baking accounts on social media. Below I have compiled a list of my favorite accounts to find gluten free recipes!

The first account is mamaknowsglutenfree! I love this account because she makes delicious gluten free recipes. She posts recipes for cookies, cakes, and dinners. Along with this she has a recipe book for gluten free and dairy free food!

The second account is goodforyouglutenfree. The reason I love this account is because she posts healthier recipes that are gluten free. If you know anything about cooking gluten free, it is that there is lots of added sugar.

The last great account that I will mention is glutenfree.followme! This account is great because she posts recipes that she has tried and gives reviews on them. Along with this she posts reviews of gluten free food she has tried at restaurants.

All these accounts are great if you are looking for new recipes to try or trying to find what you can eat when you are gluten free!

    This is a great post Lydia. I like how your incorparteded your favorite gluten free account to help others. I think it's good that companies are giving the option to switch to gluten free flour. That is a great example of how producers adjusts to their consumer needs. I personally haven't tried any gluten free foods, so I will have to make one the recipes from these accounts and let you know my ratings lol.

5K Training

I thought I would give you guys a little update on how Paige and I have progressed in our 5K training. We have reached week five in our training. We have been running consistently five days a week for five weeks! I did not realize how quickly our training would go by. We are now only 11 days away from running our own 5K! Paige and I have made it to 2.5 miles without stopping, which may not seem far, but it feels like a great accomplishment for us! We are a little over a half-mile away from our goal of doing a 5K. We plan on reaching our goal by the end of this week! Keeping motivated to run has been difficult some days. It is easy to make excuses of why not to run like it’s too cold or raining, so I thought I would tell you a few ways I stay motivated. The first way Paige and I stay motivated is by holding each other accountable. Paige and I find it best that we run together so we continue to keep up with our training. Plus, we get to get out of the house when we run! We ...
