  • 1 large red onion, sliced
  • 50g/1¾ oz mixture of red and white cabbage, sliced

  • 30g/1 oz mango, diced
  • Handful of peanuts

A family story, rooted in gluten-free cooking

Lucy’s coeliac diagnosis changed the way the family cooked and ate. Reading labels, choosing ingredients carefully and preparing meals from scratch became second nature.

These recipes reflect our family’s love of natural, minimally processed ingredients and food to enjoy together, including recipes from our two coconut oil cookbooks.
