Toaster Pastries at A Gluten Free Frenzy

                 For a long time my mom and I looked everywhere for gluten free toaster pastries.  It appears to be the most missed food for those who live gluten free lives.  I do not know how often my mother and I have heard them talked about.  They were even mentioned during a gluten free dinner at a local restaurant.  One of the presenters brought the subject up.  That is how popular toaster pastries are.

                After an extensive search, and attempts at making our own, we finally found gluten free toaster pastries.  We walked into A Gluten Free Frenzy, located on Bluemound Road in Brookfield, and there they were.  Made by Eco-Planet, their Gluten Free Frosted Toaster Pastries come in three flavors: Brown Sugar & Cinnamon, Blueberry, and Strawberry.  The first day we saw them, at least one flavor was sold out.  It may have actually been two.  That is how happy people were to have toaster pastries back in their lives.  They did not even stay on the shelves.

                As I have never eaten one myself, I cannot tell you how the toaster pastries taste. But if you, or someone you know, have missed toaster pastries, I suggest going to A Gluten Free Frenzy and giving them a try.

Soy Sauce at Outpost Natural Foods

                   So many recipes these days include soy sauce as one of the ingredients.  In my search to find a low sodium soy sauce for my sensitivity to sodium, I came upon San-J Organic Tamari Reduced Sodium Soy Sauce (Platinum Label).  This takes care of two dietary restrictions in one product.  I purchase mine at Outpost Natural Foods.

Pizza at Bartolotta’s Pizzeria Piccola

          One of my favorite things to eat is pizza.  It is probably what I order most when I go to restaurants.  Lately I have been quite partial to vegetable pizzas.  As every restaurant selects and prepares the vegetables differently, no two pizzas are exactly the same.  One vegetable pizza I enjoy frequently is from Bartolotta’s Pizzeria Piccola. 

Made to just the right size for one person to eat on his or her own, Pizzeria Piccola’s vegetable pizza is only one of the options available.  Another of my favorites is the Margherita.  Then, of course, there is nothing wrong with cheese.  The pizza at Pizzeria Piccola is so good I often find myself eating ingredient combinations I would not usually be tempted to try.  I even eat the ones that have meat.

At Pizzeria Piccola customers have the option of choosing a gluten free crust.  I have tried the gluten free crust pizza.  It is really good.  When I ate the pizza, I did not even think about it being gluten free.  It was the same delicious pizza I was used to.
