AnnaBelle's Pantry collects allergy-friendly and allergen-free foods and distributes them to food pantries through a partnership with Island Harvest.
Food insecurity is a significant problem that requires collective action. Because of the increased cost of allergen-free and allergy-friendly foods, it is critical that we help those individuals who are most acutely in need. Lack of access to safe, nutritious food creates serious health concerns for those with food allergies, intolerances, and Celiac Disease ranging from adverse reactions causing missed work or school days to life threatening situations.
Girl Scout Gold Award Project
For my Girl Scout Gold Award Project, I worked with Island Harvest to find out what foods are commonly available at their food pantries. I researched gluten free recipes that use those and other inexpensive ingredients. Since food made to be gluten free is so expensive, I focused my recipes on foods that are naturally gluten free. It is vital for people with food sensitivites and allergies to be able to find affordable, nutritious meals in order to maintain their health. My cookbook is available on the Gluten Free On a Dime website.
