About Vegetarian Mamma - just who in the world is she? 😉 Cindy Gordon is the face beyond the wildly popular blog, Vegetarian Mamma and also AirFryerEats.com
My name is Cindy, I am the owner and author of Vegetarian Mamma. My husband and I grew up eating meat but decided to make the switch to a vegetarian diet in 2005. Our children have been raised vegetarian. We have also dealt with many food allergies, including life-threatening allergies. In the past, we avoided all peanuts, tree-nuts, dairy, gluten and soy. Thankfully my children have outgrown many of their allergies. My youngest son and I both have to eat gluten-free and we are dairy sensitive. **In June 2016 my youngest son's almond allergy came back! So we are currently avoiding almonds only.
