I LOVE all you recipes. Thank you for sharing them. So easy, simple ingredients.
In the past, the other Vegan recipes I found were complicated, and strange ingredients.
My husband has Celiacs and must be Gluten Free. In most cases, it is easy to substitute Gluten Free Flour for Wheat Flour. Thank you so much.

Hi Shane,
I just discovered you about a month ago and have downloaded multiple recipes and put them all in a notebook. I have been cooking them and LOVE them. What I am lacking now is a vegan oil free, nut free, coconut free, tofu free, snack or two that are dry enough to take in a plastic baggie and put in my purse. (*_*) Thank you so much. I LOVE your website. It is super easy to navigate. Thanks a lot. Sincerely, Sandy
Shane Martin
Sandy, that is so very kind. Thank you so much!!!
