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.

ALUMNI BASKETBALL GAME AT BUCKEYE CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL

On Feb. 24 th , I live-tweeted the boys alumni basketball game. There were two teams playing. Since the players only play for fun, they do not have actual team names. Instead they wore red and white shirts to distinguish themselves. I referred to the teams based on their shirt color throughout my tweets. The game was held at Buckeye Central High School in their gym.   It was a close game for most of the game, with lots of back-and-forth. The final score was 86 to 82, with the red team coming out on top! Both teams did an excellent job and had a great game! Congratulations to the Red Team!

TRAINING TO RUN A 5K

Running use to be something I always enjoyed doing. I was in cross-country, track, and always liked the conditioning part of basketball. Even after I was out of sports, I continued to run consistently up until last year. I am not sure why I stopped running I just ended up not running anymore. So, since my classes are all online now, I have no more excuses to not run. In order to keep motivated, I am running with my sister Paige and we set a goal that we want to complete a 5K without walking. Since we do not know when the next 5K will be because of COVID-19, we decided we would have our own 5K on May 1 st . We are training five days a week, Monday through Friday. We also made challenges for different days of the week, so we continue to challenge ourselves. One of our challenges is that we run as far as we can in one direction without walking. Then we are forced to either walk or run all the way back. This is something my coach use to do when I was in cross country, so that we
