When I started my journey with celiac disease, I was completely overwhelmed. It turned out that I needed three things to get me through the rough start: 1) Education 2) Supportive family members, and 3) A gluten-free community. One of the first people I met in the gluten-free community was Chandice Probst. Her passion for this community is exceeded only by her sweetness of character. I am incredibly thankful for…
Last month I introduced you to Lindsay (aka The Lean Green Bean) who gave us 5 tips for a successful food prep session. Today I finally tried it for myself. I think I’ve been putting off trying a weekly food prep because THREE HOURS IN THE KITCHEN, but today felt like a good day to stop making excuses.

You may have noticed a decline in the number of recipes I’ve been posting on InspiredRD. Where it used to be one or two new recipes a week, you might be lucky now to get one or two a month. I’ve been in a rut, and I couldn’t figure out why until a few days ago. I was helping a friend shoot some food photos for a fundraiser, and it…
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday week! We had a great time visiting family in Houston and Dallas. As I sort through the hundreds of photos on my memory card, I thought it would be fun to put together a post of the Inspired RD recipes that got the most hits in 2011. As you look through these, you will probably be able to tell which photos were…
