Hi & Welcome to Cooking With Elo!
I’m Eloïse, a gluten-intolerant veggie lover with a background in Food Innovation Management who turned her passion into her mission: making gluten-free plant-based cooking easy, delicious and accessible to everyone. Whether you have food restrictions yourself or would like to cook for friends and family, I hope we can do it together.
P.s.: I also love a good cocktail evening with friends and family, which is why you’ll also find plenty of cocktail recipes over here.
My Story
Cooking With Elo started as a part of my gut-healing journey. I had been intolerant to dairy for the majority of my life and was diagnosed with gluten intolerance in my teenage years. While it was a relief to finally know the cause of my symptoms, it was also a challenge to change my diet so drastically.
But everything happens for a reason, right? This shift in diet made me discover my passion for cooking and baking. I loved discovering new ingredients, experimenting with new seasonings, and creating my own version of foods I loved. And here I am, sharing them with the world because food is there to be shared!
Education
- Bachelor’s Degree In Biomedical Sciences – University of Liège
- Master’s Degree in Health Food Innovation Management – Maastricht University
Career
Even before completing my Master’s degree in Health Food Innovation management, I knew that I wanted to go down the entrepreneurial route. Starting Cooking With Elo and getting my photographer’s authorization quickly became part of the process.
Once I graduated, I felt that I had to take the leap and start my own business right away. So I did. I started developing recipes for a local magazine and local food businesses and in the blink of an eye, I was managing a content creation and social media management business with a focus on the food and hospitality industry.
But growing my blog and sharing my recipes had always been part of the bigger picture. Thanks to the freedom of time that my job provides, I’m able to continue growing it while doing what I love: COOKING.
