about Claire
my Story
Claire Cary, Founder of Eat With Clarity
I have always loved food and cooking. I loved to bake during my middle school years, but in high school and college I struggled with disordered and restrictive eating.
Food seemed to consume every aspect of my life and I was constantly focused on my weight, body and every single thing I put into it. Eventually, I was able to heal my relationship with food and discovered my love for nutrition and cooking.
After years of mystery symptoms and dozens of trips to dozens of doctors, I was eventually diagnosed with Celiac Disease in early 2020. I studied nutrition in college and post-grad (I practiced as a Certified Nutritionist and Health Coach before taking my blog full time!), so the transition was thankfully easy for me. After a lot of trial and error in the kitchen, I made it my mission to prove gluten-free recipes can be just as good as the real thing. Seriously, try my gluten free chocolate cake or gluten free cinnamon rolls if you’re skeptical!
Eat With Clarity is a place for approachable, gluten free recipes that are designed to taste as good as they make you feel.
My recipes have been featured in publications such as Buzzfeed, Self, Yahoo, Thrive Magazine and more. I pour my heart and soul into every recipe to ensure you feel confident in the kitchen and have all the information you need to make everything perfectly the first time around. I have been blogging and building this business for over six years now thanks to the continuous love and support I receive on my recipes!
frequently asked questions
Yes! I took photography classes in high school, but it wasn’t until I started Eat With Clarity that I really discovered how much I love food photography. We eat with our eyes first after all! I have a few amazing videographers that handle all recipe videos for the website and social media.
I am gluten free out of medical necessity, but other than that I do not like to add labels to my diet. I gravitate toward a whole-food diet and including animal protein in my daily diet works well for me. You will find lots of vegan and vegetarian recipes on Eat With Clarity and I like to keep this a welcoming space for all types of eaters.
I have taken several cooking and baking classes, but have also learned a lot just through trial and error and building my business over the past 6+ years! I studied nutrition and psychology in undergrad and became a Certified Nutritionist and Health Coach during a post-grad year. I worked with private clients for a few years, but running Eat With Clarity is now my full time job!
Yes! I work with both brands and bloggers to photograph and/or develop recipes. If you are interested in hearing more about what I offer, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
Yes! Running Eat With Clarity is how I spend the vast majority of my time. It’s a lot of work and took a long time to get here, but I truly wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s because of all of you that I get to do this, so thank you!
I would love to write a cookbook someday, but for now I have a gluten free recipe ebook with 50 easy to make recipes! You can find it in the menu bar of my website.
