Hello! Welcome to the Dairy Free Depot. I wanted to have one place where I could share all of my dairy free recipes and dairy free dilemmas.
This is a branch off my main cooking blog, Badger Girl Learns to Cook. You will find some similar recipes between the two sites, but the posts here will really focus on dairy free living.
I have been lactose intolerant for almost ten years. Technically, I can eat dairy foods if I take a Lactaid before the meal. But even then, I have a 50/50 chance of feeling terrible afterwards. In an effort to be more healthy and to listen to my body more, I am trying to go more dairy free than I have in the past.
Being lactose intolerant is tough as a self-proclaimed foodie-wannabe. On one side, you have the average population and they use dairy in everything! On the other side is the vegan population where you can't eat any animal products. I find myself stuck in the middle. Whether I am trying to incorporate meat into a vegan meal or trying to remove the dairy from a mainstream diet, I am always having to modify recipes. I want this blog to be a place those of us who can't or don't want to eat dairy but still enjoy really good food.
I love hearing feedback from readers so if there is any questions you want answered, issues you want covered or dishes you want converted, please contact me at kimberly at learntocookbadgergirl dot com or by leaving a comment below.
Happy Eating!
