At 20, I learned I was allergic to wheat, dairy, and sugar. Since then, I’ve struggled with food in general: quite the love/hate relationship I hate to admit. But the love part has brought a greater desire to eat healthy. Over the next 12 years I became allergic to even more food, and I am learning to eat more mindfully as well.
A couple years ago, I began allergy-elimination treatments with ZD, a local NAET practioner. As my allergies disappear, the recipes change. Some things I’ll never give up though!
I believe you can make just about any good recipe work for your needs with a bit of creativity {more sometimes than others!} I rarely follow a recipe and don’t expect you to follow mine exactly either. 🙂
If you’re non-allergic…use whole wheat flour in place of the spelt. If you’re Celiac, a bit of xantham gum and a good gluten-free flour mix go a long way. Can’t do dairy?…use coconut oil and coconut milk. No sugar?…how about brown rice syrup or raw honey or agave nectar?
Whatever you do…use the best ingredients you can find…your loved ones and your health will thank you {at some point!}
