Hey There! Welcome to Gluten Free Essence, I’m so glad that you’re here!
My name is Lucy, and I’m a writer, photographer and recipe producer from Sydney! I love sharing healthy, delicious and easy gluten free recipes that everyone will enjoy!
What you’ll find on Gluten Free Essence
Gluten Free Essence is a blog dedicated to making healthy food both delicious and easy!
Here, you will find healthy gluten free recipes for busy food lovers on the go and the health conscious, with a strong focus on using wholesome plant based ingredients. Most of my recipes are refined sugar free, paleo based, vegetarian, and are always gluten free, but some of my recipes are also vegan.
At Gluten Free Essence, being ‘healthy’ isn’t about having a strict regimented approach to eating and eating one type of way. It is about enjoying foods that nourish the mind, body and soul, rather than eating to look a certain way. I believe ‘healthy’ means having a balance and that being said, while most of my recipes are plant based and nutritious, you’ll also find healthy desserts and treats to indulge in.
Why did I start Gluten Free Essence?
My inspiration for Gluten Free Essence was really sparked after my latest health setback over a year ago. Although my quest for better health began after I was diagnosed with Coeliac disease 16 years ago, it wasn’t until I faced other health challenges, that I delved into the world of health and wellness. I began to research how diet and lifestyle changes could help me on my journey towards healing and better health. After discovering the healing power of having a mostly plant-based diet, I started this blog.
I firmly believe that if healthy food is to be enjoyable, it has to be delicious! While I use wholesome, nutritious ingredients wherever possible, they do not compromise on taste and abundance, flavour and excitement sit at the heart of every meal. My aim is that by sharing my recipes, I can inspire you, whether you are gluten intolerant or not to live better, healthier lives.
