 Summertime Gluten Free Vegan Pizza Party with Friends I'm here to talk about something that's close to my heart: having fun while following a gluten-free diet! Just because you have to avoid gluten doesn't mean you can't enjoy delicious food and have a great time with your friends and family. So, let's get started! First things first, let's talk about cooking. Cooking can be such a fun and relaxing activity, and it's a great way to ensure that you're eating delicious gluten-free meals. There are so many amazing gluten-free recipes out there, from gluten-free pizzas to gluten-free pastas, and even gluten-free desserts like brownies and cakes. Try out some new recipes with your loved ones and have fun experimenting in the kitchen. I love hosting dinner parties, that way I know I can eat everything, and my friends love when I cook for them! Now, let's talk about eating out. Eating out can be a bit more challenging when you're gluten-free, but it doesn't have to be boring! Look for restaurants that offer gluten-free menus, and don't be afraid to ask your server or chef for recommendations. And if you're going to a restaurant that doesn't have a gluten-free menu, try to do some research beforehand to see if there are any safe options on the regular menu. Speaking of cocktails, let's talk about drinks. I don't drink personally but I want to give you ALL the info you need...Believe it or not, not all alcohol is gluten-free! But don't worry, there are still plenty of options for you. Stick to clear liquors like vodka, gin, and tequila, and avoid beer and most types of whiskey. And if you're not sure if a particular drink is gluten-free, don't be afraid to ask your bartender or server. Finally, let's talk about snacks. Snacking can be a great way to satisfy your cravings and keep you fueled throughout the day. There are so many delicious gluten-free snack options out there, from popcorn to chips to fresh fruit. And if you're looking for something sweet, there are plenty of gluten-free dessert options as well, like gluten-free cookies and gluten free pie. So there you have it, guys! Following a gluten-free diet doesn't have to be a drag. With a little bit of planning and some creativity, you can have just as much fun as anyone else. Remember to always be confident in your dietary needs, and never let gluten hold you back from having a good time. Until next time!

 If you don't already know, celiac disease is a serious autoimmune disorder that affects the small intestine. It's triggered by the consumption of gluten, which is found in wheat, barley, and rye. And let me tell you, it can be a real pain in the butt.

But let me tell you, my fellow gluten-free friends, There is some light at the end of tunnel with a few awesome places to shop for gluten free foods or just have a nice meal! First off, let's talk about the basics. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that causes damage to the small intestine when gluten is consumed. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, which means that it's in a lot of the foods we love - pizza, pasta, bread, you name it. But don't worry, Nashville has plenty of options for those of us who can't eat gluten. If you're living with celiac disease in Nashville, there are plenty of resources available to help you navigate your gluten-free lifestyle. Here are some tips and recommendations to help you thrive in Music City. First things first, let's talk about dining out. Nashville has a great food scene, but it can be challenging to find safe, gluten-free options at restaurants. Fortunately, there are several restaurants in the city that offer gluten-free menus or options, such as Blue Sushi Sake Grill and Thai Esane. Many other restaurants are also willing to accommodate dietary restrictions if you ask your server or chef. One of my favorite places to go is Avo, a vegan and gluten-free restaurant that serves up some seriously delicious food. Their dairy free cheesecakes are to die for, and their Lions Mane "Crab" cakes are so flavorful. Plus, their desserts are out of this world. You have to try their chocolate pie - it's gluten-free and vegan, but you'd never know it. Additionally, there are several places that offer delicious gluten-free treats and dairy free ice cream like KOKOS Ice Cream Scoop Shop. When it comes to grocery shopping, there are several options for gluten-free products in Nashville. Most major grocery stores carry a variety of gluten-free items, and there are also specialty stores like The Turnip Truck and The Produce Place that offer a wider selection of gluten-free products, as well as multiple Whole Foods locations throughout the city. As well as fresh farmer's markets in the late spring to early fall. Another great resource for those with celiac disease in Nashville is the Nashville Celiac Support Group. This group provides education, resources, and support to those living with celiac disease, and they regularly host events and meetings for members. They also have a helpful website with information about local restaurants and grocery stores that offer gluten-free options. Finally, it's important to remember that living with celiac disease can be challenging, but it's also possible to thrive. And remember, Nashville is a city full of amazing food, music, and culture - don't let your dietary restrictions hold you back from experiencing it.
