Gluten-Free Shredded Brussels Sprout & Spinach Salad

June 16, 2019

 I love the simplicity of this salad. It tastes professional but is incredibly easy to prepare, and I love a recipe that requires very little effort. 

The dressing is creamy, light and tangy which the perfect juxtaposition to the sweet dried cranberries, salty seeds and crunchy greens. It’s a wonderful combinations of flavors and textures. If you want something with a little of everything, this Gluten-Free Shredded Brussels Sprout & Spinach Salad is it!

Gluten-Free Cinnamon Apple-Topped Goat Brie

October 25, 2018

We all know that cinnamon and apples were a match made in culinary heaven and that tart apples and creamy brie perfectly juxtapose each other, so it only stands to reason that all three would create a flavor explosion trifecta. Spoiler: It did!!!!

Gluten-Free, Goat Cheese Spinach & Artichoke Dip

September 20, 2018

Each bite is packed with spinach and artichoke, unlike some that just focus on cheese. There is still is a bunch of cheese to satisfy that craving, but it’s not cheese dip masquerading as spinach and artichoke dip. Plus there’s a bit of heat from the jalapeño and red pepper flakes. It’s d-d-delicious!

Gluten-Free Roasted Red Potatoes

October 27, 2017

Ahh…the humble potato. This starchy vegetable has earned it’s spot as a staple food in almost every culture and every household. Partly because they are DELICIOUS and partly because they are incredibly versatile. Bake them, mash them, smash them, shred them, boil them, fry them. Today though, we are going to roast them.

Bruschetta

Store-Bought Upgrade - Gluten-Free Mediterranean Hummus (Vegan Optional)

February 1, 2017

Let’s be honest, we don’t always have time to make everything from scratch like we would like and that’s okay. This is where upgrading a recipe comes into play—starting with something store-bought and making it better.

French Onion Soup

January 22, 2017

January is apparently National Soup Month! It makes sense is January is chilly and soup is the perfect meal to enjoy on the couch while wearing fuzzy socks, but it’s been 60-75 degrees here in Nashville all week. It’s insane.

Hi, I'm Shalan! Studioist.co is my journal devoted to adventures, creativity, recipes, and my husband LeBraun and I's semi-nomadic lifestyle. I spend most of my days wondering how to combine my two loves, traveling and illustrations. The rest of my time I spend trying to create awesome gluten-free, dairy-free recipes. I want this to be a place of inspiration and encouragement as well as a fun place to spend your time. And yes, sometimes it gets messy, but I wouldn't have it any other way.


Here’s what shakin’, bacon!

Summer Treats!

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Strawberry Cream Pie
Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Strawberry Cream Pie

This no-bake treat is super easy—a creamy combo of sweet vanilla pudding, fresh strawberries (or fruit of choice) with the scattered crunch. Essentially all the best textures in a chilled layered dessert. It’s definitely one to bring to a backyard party or family get together. It’s not so much a “pie” as a layered dessert, but that’s what we have been calling it so there you go

Gluten-Free, Keto Lemony Lemon Bars

And with Easter right around the corner I knew I wanted to make something bright, fresh, and bursting with the goodness of Spring (+ Keto-approved). Fresh, tangy lemons create a smooth, dreamy filling, held up by a sweet, almond flour crust. Then lightly dusted with a confectionary sugar substitute for an easy layered dessert.
