Hello, my name is Gabby! I am a gluten free and plant based food blogger, holistic nutritionist, and founder of Nutritious by Gabby.
Nutritious by Gabby was launched in 2024 and offers gluten free and plant based recipes, tips, and recommendations. It shares my knowledge of good restaurants, products, cooking tips, and all of the plant based and gluten free recipes.
How It All Got Started
I have been a vegetarian since middle school, never having liked the taste of meat. However, I ate gluten, dairy, and fish still.
Jump to 2018 when I was first starting out in my career as an elementary teacher. I had been having stomach problems for years without knowing why. I had already visited a gastroenterologist once, but decided to go again after my mom was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. This time, the diagnosis was confirmed – I had Celiac Disease as well and also had to go gluten free. Going gluten free definitely improved some of my more intense stomach troubles, but it didn’t solve it all.
Pan to 2022, after the pandemic, I knew I had a great interest in nutrition and decided to sign up for an AFPA (American Fitness Professionals and Associates) holistic nutritionist course. During the course, my passion for nutrition deepened and I learned more about the many benefits of a plant based diet. So, I decided to try it myself – ridding my diet of dairy in addition to my original vegetarianism. Let me tell you…I could not believe how good I felt! Not only did I solve my stomach problems, but I lost weight and had more energy too.
Today, I consume a plant-based and gluten free diet, while occasionally still having fish if the mood strikes. Additionally, I’m very mindful of my alcohol intake knowing that this impacts my stomach, mood, weight, etc. as well (which is why you can find mocktail recipes on my site too!). Despite cutting certain foods out of my diet, I still eat delicious meals, feel satisfied with all I eat, and feel amazing on the daily!
