About Yvonne
As someone with coeliac disease, I know first‑hand how hard school lunches can be. After years of testing, I’ve simplified gluten‑free lunch prep so families can stop stressing and start enjoying food again.
My mission is to make school lunches simple, safe, and affordable — with recipes kids actually love.
