Welcome! I’m Nikki!

I’m the baker, blogger, photographer and gluten-free eater behind Simple Life with Nikki. I’m also a military/pilot wifey, mom to 2 adorable redheaded girls, and proud silver lab parent! We do small-town living while dreaming of our next adventure. I’m a super laid back girl who loves making home cooked meals, traveling, gardening, sports, hoodies & flip flops, being outside, the island of Kauai, sunshine, and keeping life simple!

I’ve always made our meals from scratch to nourish my family the best I can. However, years ago food allergies hit our family HARD. My hubby and oldest daughter had to become dairy free & I found out I needed to be gluten-free. It was an adjustment, but we all LOVE food way too much for it to stop us! So, we’re constantly creating new yumminess or altering our favorite recipes to accommodate dairy & gluten allergies.

I share our family favorite recipes from a little bit of everything for any season of the year! I love sharing yummy food with family & friends while adhering to food allergies, especially when it’s so yummy that the non-food allergy people can’t even tell! That’s always the BEST!

Sometimes cooking/baking with food allergies can be intimidating, until you get some yummy recipes that are simple! So, I’m glad you’re here and can’t wait to see your delicious creations and hear how you ‘wow’ your crowd with these recipes! Trust me, your house will smell divine whether you’re baking my simple gluten-free sourdough or sauteing a delicious dinner.

I’d love to hear from you, so reach out anytime through email or DM me on Instagram @simplelifewithnikki.
