With just a few ingredients, some time, and some easily attained items, you can make batch after batch of marmalade for home use and for making thoughtful homemade gifts for the people you love and appreciate, and not give them botulism in the process

Food definitely makes a difference when it comes to Crohn's! Sticking to these “safe” foods for me, has made it way easier to get out of a flare. You have to figure out what foods are “safe” foods for you and your body, because no one is the same. But I hope this is a starting place to get your mind rolling on what to try first!
To be honest? Durham has some truly incredible places to eat. These are the places that I tend to frequent the most because of not only the flavor of the delicious food, but also because of the grade rating and quality of the service and facility.

Although Carmel is loathed by a lot of fellow Hoosiers, the city offers a modern and varied dining scene. I’ve lived in Carmel since 2008 and raised our kids here. It has grown and changed a lot but this NY native approves.
Beyond the obvious of avoiding gluten, celiac made me think more about what I put in my body and what helps my digestive system. But also, it’s important to enjoy what you’re eating without worrying about nutrition all the time!
I have been (mostly) gluten-free for nearly 4 years now. I am not celiac; however, I definitely have a gluten intolerance of some sort. I am able to make my own bread from scratch with minimal gut issues, which has allowed me to still remember what good bread tastes like. Because of this loophole, I think it makes me qualified to know what a good gluten-free product tastes like, and if it is truly comparable to the real thing. Also, I live in the middle of nowhere, where gluten-free items can be difficult to find. So anywayyyy there's my backstory and credentials- now here are some of my favorites that I have found at my local Target and Walmart!
I prioritize food that is organic, lentils that are glyphosate-free, salt that is free of microplastics/dangerous lead levels, & watch for other heavy metals! Buying in bulk saves $$! (See my BPA-Free Food Storage Containers List for long-term storage options). Always soak dried lentils & chickpeas in water 24 hrs before cooking! I buy duplicate items from different brands to switch it up. *As an affiliate I earn from qualifying purchases at no cost to you.

Our house, and our kitchen, is small. When we moved in 5 years ago there wasn’t room for a microwave - we never got one. Here’s what we eat when we need something fast and how we reheat things. Even my 4 year old hasn’t noticed he’s got to wait 15 minutes for chicken nuggets.
