“Shortly after my second son was born, I began sharing recipes online that struck the perfect balance of fitting my family’s dietary needs but also satisfying our tastebuds,” she said.
Grimes said her family’s dietary needs include a low glycemic menu — meaning foods must help those who struggle with regulating their blood sugar.
The New Jersey resident said that although no one in her family is gluten-free, she sees that the preference tends to be an underlying factor in most of her recipes.
