Meet the Creator
Gina Fontana
It’s nice to “meet” you! I am the creator & certified health coach behind Healthy Little Vittles, where I share all the delicious gluten-free, plant-based, vegan recipes I create for my family and I.
I had a life changing experience in 2013 after participating in the Daniel Fast with my church. After a lifelong search for answers to my unexplained health ailments, the fast prompted me to switch to a gluten-free, plant-based diet that transformed my life! I am now on a mission to share my journey with others.
Through my story, recipes and creative photography, my hope is to inspire people to pursue a healthier lifestyle, all while still enjoying amazing food!
