Welcome to Vette City!

Welcome to Vette City!

My name is Alex. I am starting this website with the hopes that it might help people who are looking for gluten free, vegan options. The recipes I share are ones I share with my friends and family and have been tested and retested. That being said, I hope you will share any successes you have had or changes you make to any recipes you decide to venture out and try!

I want to differentiate my blog in a few ways, but the most important one to me is to make it as simple as possible. I hate scrolling through a recipe for 5 minutes before I get to the actual recipe. I am happy to share any stories and experiences, but they will be minimal. I look forward to hearing from any and all of you!

I am from Nashville, TN originally, but now live in Bowling Green, KY where I spend time with my family and work full time. Baking and cooking are passions of mine. One of my favorite places to be, my zen zone, is my kitchen. My intention is to share what I love and hope that you find some favorites.
