3 GLUTEN SUGAR DAIRY FREE Hello, I am Michelle! You may be a reader of mine or maybe this is your first time meeting me. Since I don t know, let me introduce myself! I am a foodie, chef, life coach, motivational speaker and best selling author. Most importantly, I had to become gluten, sugar, dairy free for medical reasons. When that happened, I struggled to learn all I could about those ingredients, what they did to the body and find tasty food I could eat. At first I felt alone, confused, frustrated and then just upset. There was so much information out there, but a lot of it conflicting and confusing. " I saw scarcity in everything. I saw what I could not eat rather than the bounty that was out there. I also had spent my adult life depending on cheese as a meal and ready made food products for ease. I could do that no longer! One day I was feeling sorry for myself because I could not have my favorite dish: beef stroganoff. No sour cream, noodles, cream Then I got fired up. I decided to recreate all my old favorite dishes into new gluten, sugar, dairy free ones! I wanted to use familiar affordable ingredients and have them taste good. I have been doing that since that day and every week post new recipes on my website. My website: Gluten Sugar Dairy Free LifeStyle launched with just a handful of recipes and a few articles I had written on the benefits of different herbs. It was a hobby at the time. Then I created a FaceBook page and everything changed. People began asking me how to avoid gluten, sugar and/or dairy. They wanted to know how to make certain things and many asked me to convert recipes for them. Soon I was spending lots of time doing this and I had an idea to teach a live webinar style class that would answer these questions and more. ii

4 Now I teach over a dozen different classes from topics like Salad Dressings, Feeding Kids with Allergies, Cooking 101, 5 Ingredients 15 Recipes and many more. I also teach an intensive 8 part course called GSDF Basics. What I have learned over the years is that most people wanted to learn how to cook. How to cook real and healthy food. Most of my students have relied on fast food solutions that they can no longer eat. I teach them to cook but also lots of systems to make it easy, quick, affordable and tasty. GSDF has become more than a recipe site, it is about community and education. I soon wrote the first hand book on living GSDF that included systems, what to have on hand, conversions and substitutions. guest speakers, lots of information and of course recipes and cooking books! My membership group gets one new class a month tailored to the needs of the group, access to the video replays of all past classes, access to all new classes and text support with me. Thank you for downloading our digital ebook! We love to give you taste tests to try and information to help you! Click Here for more information about GSDF and if you have questions, just send us an . Thank you for downloading this ebook! From My Kitchen Table to Yours, Michelle DeBerge I then published the GSDF Big Book of Recipes with over 150 easy recipes that use affordable familiar ingredients. I just came out with the GSDF Slow Cooker Cookbook with over 75 delicious healthy recipes. We work with different groups of alternative health care providers that send their clients to us after they are told to become gluten, sugar and/or dairy free so that we can make it easier on their clients. We have a special Start Here page with video, information and a mini digital handbook for our new guests. What I had been looking for when I first had to restrict my diet, I actually created. We have online support groups, classes, lectures, iii
