This cobbler recipe needs only one more thing: a scoop of vanilla ice cream. You know what I’m talking about, right? Impatiently waiting until it has cooled just enough to scoop it into a bowl and then put a scoop of ice cream right on top so it’s starts melting over the cobbler. Sooooo good.

It’s good to see forward motion to help those with gluten-related medical conditions eat safely, especially during Celiac Disease Awareness Month!

Thank you to my congressman, Emanuel Cleaver II and Congresswoman Betty McCollum for doing this important work. Let’s all get busy contacting our reps and ask for their support of the Celiac Safety Act.

(Washington, D.C.) – Today, during Celiac Disease Awareness Month, U.S. Representatives Emanuel Cleaver, II (D-MO) and Betty McCollum (D-MN) introduced the Celiac Safety Act to strengthen food labeling law and protect the roughly 3 million Americans with Celiac Disease.

This is from a local news station where I live. It’s been years since I’ve seen any mention of Celiac Disease Awareness Month locally, let alone a feature story. Love seeing it!!

It's been fifteen years ago today an EF5 tornado struck Joplin, Missouri. I'm sharing thoughts today on the gluten-free food pantry I established in Joplin in the days following, about disaster preparedness and how we can best help our fellow gluten-free friends in natural disasters.

P.S. Fifteen years later I'm still so full of gratitude for all of you who showed up, friends from childhood, students from my gluten-free classes, gluten-free brands, the incredible Rita in Joplin who hosted the pantry for months. A small group of people with big hearts will always make a difference. 💚

Here’s an interesting read/listen on the popularity of beans are right now. Are any of you members of the Rancho Gordo Bean Club?

The fiber craze is pushing more people into the broad world of beans, as the U.S. bean industry looks to double American consumption of pulses by 2030.

Current favorite salad: air fried halloumi, strawberries, dates, cherry tomatoes, red onions and almonds over spring greens with poppyseed dressing.

Air frying halloumi is a breeze. Cubed or sliced, about 8-9 minutes at 400°. Single layer with little touching.

So grateful for the sharing of gluten-free stories. The path to diagnosis can be long, the path to figure out life after gluten can be challenging. Reading the stories of others and connecting with others? Super helpful!

The recipe round ups from gfe--gluten free easily are legendary for a reason, everything you need in one spot from tried and true gluten-free experts. But this one?!? It’s everything we need when it comes to Mexican inspired dishes!

Happy Star Wars Day! May the 4th be with you.

Here’s a link to my Grogu-inspired margarita, which has avocado in it. Have you had an avocado margarita?

Revisiting a post on my site from Celiac Disease Awareness Month a few years back, still relevant today. Perhaps more relevant today…

In spreading awareness for a chronic autoimmune disease with no cure and the only treatment being eating gluten-free, it’s easy to be fixated on food. With companies using this month to promote their gluten-free products, it’s easy to get sucked in and want to buy all of it. This part of celiac disease and other gluten-related medical conditions is hard and not talked about enough.

Here’s a link to more: https://injohnnaskitchen.com/2022/05/celiac-disease-and-a-food-scarcity-mindset/?fbclid=IwdGRjcARkzM1leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAo2NjI4NTY4Mzc5AAEeAYdNRzSV8urdTjIJl21zeUlWmsiaIUHuNNXxImqBuM5zqQkC8QAsyUJGY0E_aem_yvNywSKG8VvQJex2YnsZ9w

P.S. It’s okay to buy only one cheesecake at ALDI and leave the rest for others like you. This is exactly what I’m talking about with a food scarcity mindset.
