None of this would be possible without a team of heart filled, ridiculously talented and of course very good looking individuals working together.
Angie Cowen
That’s Me!
I’m the owner of Love Life and Gluten Free, an enterprise I created to share my love of gluten free wholefoods while helping inspire people to reach their health potential so they can live a life filled to the brim with what’s important to them. I’m a passionate wholefood chef, cookbook author and cooking class expert specialising in gluten free and dairy free food.
In all of my work I bring my love and years of experience for preparing food that is delicious, nurturing and nourishing.
I began experimenting with nourishing food in 2003 after being plagued with illness and fatigue for several years. When traditional medicine failed to help, I put my focus on the food I was eating and found that by eliminating gluten, dairy, refined sugar and processed foods, my health and wellbeing flourished!
I am proud to have studied with renowned wholefood expert Jude Blereau, graduating from her four-month intensive Whole and Natural Foods Chef Training Course in 2010. I’ve also undertaken additional training in Ayurveda, Integrative Nutrition, Yoga Teacher Training and more.
My latest cookbook Love Life and Gluten Free is a beautiful compilation of some of my most popular gluten free and dairy free recipes created over years of catering yoga retreats, weddings, corporate events and so much more.
In and out of the kitchen, you’ll likely find me yoga-ing, dancing and generally getting up to mischief.
