Your Home For Restaurant & Product Reviews Free From Gluten & Dairy
If there’s one restaurant trend I can wholeheartedly get behind, it’s the proliferation of fast casual “make your own bowl” restaurants that have popped up in and around Washington D.C. They make grabbing an affordable, healthy lunch easy, and coming many culinary varieties- Mediterranean, Indian, Korean, and more. The latest of these type of restaurants I visited is SKWR Kabobline in downtown D.C. Offering a gourmet take on a street vendor staple- […]
As a student and intern, I know the importance of always having safe food on hand to avoid situations when I am stuck without a safe snack. Usually I always have a Go Macro bar (or two) in my backpack at all times, and love them for their clean ingredients, reduced-sugar recipes, and high amounts of plant-based protein. These aren’t your typical bars that are candy disguised as health food- no, […]
Over the long Memorial Day weekend, I moved from Baltimore to Washington D.C. for the summer, which means that there’s a whole lot of D.C. reviews coming soon to the blog. After a long day of packing and moving, I decided to venture over to Georgetown to walk around and get fresh air. To decide where to find dinner, I consulted my Find Me Gluten-Free app, and after reading reviews […]
Looking for an updated rundown of gluten-free options at Nationals Park? Click here to see the 2019 edition. The roar of the crowd… the crack of the bat… baseball season is in full swing (pun intended)! While everyone can join in on the fun of cheering on the home team, baseball stadiums can be difficult to navigate as a gluten-free eater because hot dogs, pretzels, and other gluten-filled snacks are the staples of […]
As I wrap up my time in Baltimore (for now) I made one final foodie stop before heading out of town at BJ’s Restaurant and Brewhouse in Towson. I have heard for awhile that BJ’s has lots of gluten-free options so I decided it was finally time to check them out. This BJ’s is part of the new Towson Square development, which features restaurants, a huge movie theater, and tons of shopping nearby at […]
It’s been ages since I last embarked on a gluten-free baking project, because it has been difficult to find free time this semester. Luckily, with my final exams behind me, I was able to break out my mixing bowls to test drive the Bella Gluten-Free mixes that have been hanging out in my pantry for a few weeks now. What’s awesome about these mixes is that they are allergen-free and go […]
I originally wanted to order the shrimp a la plancha, but dairy proved hard to avoid in the coconut curry lime sauce. The waitress offered to have the kitchen prepare the shrimp without the sauce and I agreed because eating shrimp is such a treat for me. The shrimp had a lovely spicy flavor, which was enhanced by a squeeze of lime juice. The four shrimp were large and plump- […]
Microwave popcorn is one of those foods that can be tricky to find dairy-free. Although naturally gluten-free, butter and milk products are often used to provide the authentic buttery flavor made famous by movie theaters. Luckily, SkinnyPop has engineered a perfect solution for allergy-free eaters everywhere: microwave popcorn that’s not only safe, but pops up into it’s own bowl. These popcorn aisle newcomers are a perfect merge of convenience and satisfaction, and […]
One of the truly great things about Washington D.C. is that you can find just about any type of food from around the world here. I love any type of non-American food (and it’s usually more gluten-free friendly), but until recently have not sought out Thai food in the District. Thai food is my favorite of the Asian cuisines because it is just so flavorful and comforting. I love curries […]
As a busy college student, time for cooking elaborate, healthy meals is hard to find sometimes. Between school, work, and interning, sometimes I need a quick meal to fill me up and fuel several hours’ worth of activity. To do this, I often turn to frozen meals, which often have less than stellar nutritional and taste profiles. They’re quick and easy, but less than satisfying. However, when shopping at Mom’s Organic Market, […]
