ONE PAN VEGGIE, POTATO, AND CHICKEN SAUSAGE DINNER
Hi everyone, welcome back to the Dairy Free Diaries! Hope you all are doing well and are excited for this week’s blog post. I am sharing the easiest and quickest lunch and dinner idea. This one sheet meal pan is such an easy thing to meal prep in bulk for the week or to prep for dinner the same night. It is so versatile and the ingredients are completely interchangeable. You can switch up the veggies by using bell peppers, brussels sprouts, etc. Or you can change the protein to tofu or chicken breasts. You can substitute whatever you want to, which is why this recipe is so great. RECIPE TIME!!! Serves…

AVOCADO TUNA SPRING MIX SALAD
This is the perfect lunch or dinner recipe because it has such a great balance of foods. You get some protein from the tuna, some healthy fats from the avocado, a serving or two of a variety of vegetables and some crunch from the crackers. This recipe hits all the marks of a healthy and balanced meal, and has become such a staple in my diet. In addition, this recipe is gluten and dairy free, as well as having a super minimal ingredient list. I love to prep this ahead of time for my work lunches and it lasts until the end of the week.

Broccoli and Spinach Protein Pasta
Welcome back to The Dairy Free Diaries!! Hope you guys had an amazing week and are ready for a delicious recipe this week. At the beginning of my gluten and dairy free journey, I thought I would never be able to eat Italian food again. Ordering was quite impossible because the menu consisted of gluten filled bread and pasta AND cheese is basically a staple ingredient in all of the entrees. So, I decided to make my own version right at home. I was shocked to found that the grocery store sold gluten free pastas of all different types. There are so many options made from chickpeas, gluten free flour,…

Simple and Easy GF/DF Pumpkin Spice French Toast
Let’s talk breakfast food. What is better than a plate of French toast in the morning. Nothing! But the problem for me was that most restaurants and brunch spots carried French toast that didn’t align with my health goals. So instead of just never eating French toast, I decided to create my own. I think a lot of people hold this idea that the “healthy” version isn’t going to be as good as the “unhealthy” version. And that is definitely true with some recipes out there, but my goal here is to give you guys recipes that taste just as good, and even better than the original. I am a…
