Austin, TX 

Hey y’all, I went to Texas and actually had (mostly) amazing gluten free food so I wanted to share my findings! VIA 313 Pizza | 1111 E 6th St, Austin, TX This place was great. We went to the 6th St. location which is more of a food truck and the delivered our pizza into the bar next door. This was definitely top 5 GF pizza’s I’ve ever had. There are multiple locations all over the Austin area too. Hopdoddy Burger Bar | 1400 S Congress Ave, Ste A190, Austin, TX Not pictured: truffle fries fried in dedicated frier! WOO! But, don’t eat these burgers. Felt very not okay after eating here but I definitely took a risk eating here. The reviews were very 50/50 if the place was celiac safe or not. Check on the fries if you go but they were in a dedicated fryer when I was there and they were amazing. Frank’s | 4th & Colorado, Austin 78701 Awesome late night snack stop. The waiter was super knowledgeable about the gluten free options. …

Let’s be friends. 

First look how amazing this pizza is and check out my post here for the best pizza crusts EVER. Second, I’d love to follow you on Instagram!!! So follow me @thesociableceliac then comment a 🍷on my most recent pic for a follow!!! I really want to start using my Instagram more frequently than I have in the past.

MYBREAD flatbread pita pizza

These are the real deal. I honestly don’t think I need to look for a different gluten free pizza crust ever again. The MYBREAD Flat Bread Pita made the most amazing and easy crust a celiac could ask for. The best part? It took 10 minutes at 450 degrees. Fast AND easy, that’s my favorite type of meal. I am not going to lie, this pizza was a throw whatever random things I could find on top kind of pizza but I’ll still give you the details. The sauce: Classico creamy alfredo pasta sauce The toppings: fresh garlic, diced onion, and baby spinach The cheese: mozzarella, parmesan, pecorino romano  

The Lona’s Obsession Continues

Decided to pick up Lona’s Lil Eats for take out last weekend with Sam and to try some new things on the menu. We are still obsessed. This time we both ended up getting the grilled steak wrap. They are famous for the wraps claiming they are the “original giant rice paper wraps” and let me tell you, they are not joking because this thing was MASSIVE. I ate it for three separate meals. I also got the chopped vinaigrette salad for my side. Their smoked vinaigrette is amazing! To learn more about Lona’s check out my first blog post about them.

Send Me Gluten Free | May

This is my last Send Me Gluten Free box from my 3-month subscription. I’m honestly very sad that this wonderful time in my life is coming to an end. But I will be back for them again soon (when I have more money and am not a broke graduate student). 1. Simply 7 Sea Salt Hummus Chips:★★★★★. Honestly these tasted like Funyuns to me but I loved them.  2. Cosmos Creations Caramel Apple Crisps:★★★★. I really liked these but the flavor/consistency took a little while to get used to.  3. Montana Monster Munchies Gluten Free Cookie: ★★★★★. Very strong pat and peanut butter flavor but super moist. Loved this cookie  4. Fruit Bliss Organic French Agen Mini Plums:★★★★. I was very unsure about these at first but I actually enjoyed them more than I thought I would. Not the easiest to eat because of how sticky they are, though.  5. KIND Popped Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt: ★★★★★. You already know my love for these. Check out my post on KIND bars. 6. NuNaturals NuStevia Natural …

May is Celiac Awareness Month

If you didn’t already know, May is celiac awareness month and I am going green for the occasion. This is the perfect time for you to advocate not only for yourself but for the 1 and 100 people also diagnosed with celiac disease and the many more that are undiagnosed. Check out this post by Beyond Celiac (formerly the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness) on 60 things you can do to raise celiac disease awareness. Then share this video on your social media with the hashtag #60ForCeliac. Read this post I had featured on the Beyond Celiac Gluten-Free in College series. Get out there and let the world know about celiac disease and hope for a cure someday soon (because I need some pizza rolls in my life ASAP)!  

The Corner Pub & Grill | Valley Park, St. Louis, MO 

You know those restaurants with a story that just make you feel good and safe to eat at? Well Corner Pub & Grill is that place for me. The owner’s daughter was diagnosed with Celiac Disease in 2005 at the age of 7 and so all of his restaurant’s have gluten free menus. See my post about the Tavern. However, the Corner Pub in particular has its gluten free menu named after his daughter Hanna. Read more about their story here.  This is actually the second time I have been to the Corner Pub. The first time I got nachos and chili but Sam and I inhaled our food and didn’t get a picture. This time I made sure to get a picture because I have been dying to tell you all about this gem. Do you see those breaded chicken fingers??? They are amazing as they look. They have a dedicated fryer and they aren’t afraid to use it (so they say). I think the live up to that statement. I know not everyone loves …

Send Me Gluten Free | March

HAPPY MARCH, Y’ALL! Time is seriously flying. The other night I came home to a wonderful surprise after my night class…. MY FIRST SEND ME GLUTEN FREE BOX!!! I was honestly so excited that I snapped some quick pictures and tore into it. If you haven’t heard of Send Me Gluten Free, it is a monthly subscription box that sends only gluten free goodies brought to us from the great people of Find Me Gluten Free. My wonderful boyfriend got me a 3 month subscription for Valentine’s Day. Shout out to the bae for knowing the real way to my heart. Sticking to my usual method, I am going to list out all the products that were included and rate them as I try them! The orange envelope is filled with coupons. Updated as of 3/16/16 ProTings Chili Lime Baked Crisps: ★. Not. A. Fan. Weird flavor and super gritty consistency. Full Flavor Foods Turkey Gravy Mix: Free for All Kitchen Double Chocolate Gluten Free Brownie Thins: ★★★. Were they my favorite? No. Would I eat them …

Gluten Free On The Go

I found this article written by Shannon Bauer on Fitness Magazine’s website while doing my normal gluten free internet exploration. I absolutely love easy snack ideas because I am always on the go and love trying new things. However, while looking through their list, I realized I have tried and LOVED several of these products and would love to try the rest of these. I think that this post will be a running list and I’ll update it when I try more of these products. I could write and may write separate reviews on these products but because of the sheer volume of them I am going to use a ranking system. If I have not tried the product I am going to go with a simple ☒, the rest I am going to work on a star system:★(1) star means I have tried and would not buy again and ★★★★★ (5) stars means I love this product and would buy over and over again. Let me know your thoughts on any of these products! As of 1/1/2016 1. …
