Udi's

So i've blogged about them before but Udi's has become my favorite GF bread.

Now we have it at our local Trader Joe's fresh, not frozen.

My morning routine lately has been their cinnamon raisin bread toasted with butter.

We really like their frozen GF Pizza Crusts.  They are always in our freezer.


They are having a cooking competition on their facebook page for the best GF recipe using one of their products.  I entered my BBQ Pizza. (You can see the recipe below)

Udi’s GF Pizza Crust
Favorite GF BBQ Sauce
Red Onion
Cilantro
Gouda Cheese
Shrimp or Chicken (Optional)
We used to have Sunday Pizza night. The dough would be made in the morning along with homemade sauce. Come dinner time the pizza stone was hot on the grill and the smell of homemade pizza brought everyone to dinner.

After being diagnosed I have tried many recipes and still have not been able to duplicate “real” pizza. Udi’s frozen crusts are really close and easy to use so they are a staple in our freezer.

1. Chop up cilantro until you have 1/4 cup or more if you like and set aside. Thinly slice the red onion. Grate about 1 1/2 cups of the cheese.

2. Pull out an Udi’s frozen pizza crust and preheat the oven.

3. Brush your favorite GF BBQ sauce on the crust (I like Bone Suckin Sauce)

4. If you like pre-cook some chicken or shrimp and spread over the pizza crust. You can omit the meat if you want a vegetarian pie.

5. Sprinkle the cheese over top of the meat.

6. Lay out the red onion slices and sprinkle on the cilantro.

7. Into the oven until cooked and the cheese is bubbly and brown.

8. Pour a little more BBQ sauce on top. Let cool slightly (so the cheese doesn’t slide off), slice and enjoy.

Mountain Mike's Pizza

Pizza. One of the things we GF folk miss is pizza, grabbing a slice, ordering a pie, delivery pizza at home. It has been two years since the GF Food Expo in San Diego where I met the owner of the two local  Mountain Mike's Pizza.   He told me a story about his daughter, who has to be GF, and how his restaurants offer safe GF Pizza.  I kept thinking I would stop in - its been two years.  Sam Golding owns the shop in Clairemont Mesa and I believe another in San Carlos. Its not far but not close, so I didn't venture down to the Clairemont shop.  And, I'm apprehensive about new places.  I hate getting sick from contamination. This is the Gluten Free Menu. Let me tell you it was a great experience.  The girl behind the counter knew what she was talking about, they have a good GF menu - not just pizza (they even have three GF beers), and the pizza was delicious. The GF crusts are small, 10 inch.  They are GF, soy, egg and dairy free.  They have a good texture and t

Ghostfish Gluten Free Beer

I noticed that I have been slacking on the blog updates.  I do have some recipes to add and a bunch of new GF products that I have found.  But, one of the best new additions I have found was another dedicated GF Brewery out of the incredible Pacific Northwest.  Home to beautiful mountains, rivers, steelhead, salmon and GF Beer.  My other favorite GF beer is just south of these guys in Portland, Oregon - Groundbreaker Brewing  (The brew pub is also a block away from my favorite GF Bakery - New Cascadia Traditional. I found out about  Ghostfish Brewing  after hearing about all of the medals they won at the 2015 Beer events.  They are another dedicated GF Brewer located in Seattle, Washington.  Three guys making great GF beer. I was able to get my hands on three of their beers.  They did not last very long because they were all very good. Grapefruit IPA This won the Bronze Medal at the 2015 Great American Beer Festival.  Its made with sorghum, brown rice, candi syrup, hops, gra

San Diego Safari Park

I must say that the San Diego Zoo  Safari Park  has some work to do.  Disney and Legoland do a great job with a GF list that you can pick up at guest services. We went to the Safari Park the other day.  I stopped at Guest Services and they said to check in the park at the Ranger Station.  At the Ranger Station they called another person on the phone and then informed me that they did not have a list - I should ask at each place. So I'm supposed to go into every place and ask?  If I'm hungry, and wait in line, and then find out they do not offer anything I'm supposed to just go to the next place and wait in line again? Now, we brought food (always prepared); but, I wanted to check out the GF options for potential visits in the future and for "research." I stopped by Mombasa Island Cooker .  The only option was baked chicken strips . I went to the Oasis Deli .  This kid was nice and surprised that the Park didn't have a list.  They have one salad .  Th
