Qdoba at UCF

I had a quick stop at University of Central Florida today and had the need to feed. ^_^ Well a friend had recommended eating at Qdoba Mexican Grill. Well I always check out their menu and allergen information before going to a store. Granted they have Mexican food which one would think was Gluten-Free with the possibility of actual corn tortillas, tacos and salads. But I was greatly mistaking on this. They was a lot of cross-contamination and almost everything but their corn chips had gluten in it. I ordered their chicken nachos and was surprised when I saw the gentlemen behind the counter drop a flour tortilla in the salsa and just keep going. Sorry guys and gals don’t eat here if you are really sensitive to gluten.

Natural Delights :Healthy, Gluten-Free, Baked Goods and Soomthies

I know I have been on a long hiatus but now I’m back and ready for another wonderful jaunt into the gluten-free world. One of my latest discoveries has been a store called Natural Delights off Fairbanks ave in Orlando it’s right across the street from 4Rivers Smoke house.

Now I have to say I was really excited when I heard that this place was so near my work and had some great food. So I had to stop in and take a look. I did wondered why I hadn’t heard about this place sooner only to find out from the owner that they had only been open for a few months and have been hoping that word of mouth would help generate some business.

Muffins and other yummies

Chocolate Cupcakes

To be honest when I arrived it was rather late and they had run out of a few things but I was assured by the owner that they would be getting more items on the menu other then cupcakes, sweets and smoothies. I’m not saying this is all they carry but this is all I found when I arrived. One of the owners said there are going to be sandwiches and fresh bread soon. And to top this off they have vegan options along with it being very reasonably priced.

The food is also very healthy. They doesn’t use processed sugar but relay more on agava nectar and other sweeteners to make their delicious food. I came across their Blueberry muffins, which are by the way scrumptious, along with their Raspberry Thumbprints that I have now become addicted to.  I have included a link to their menu for those who wish to browse before heading out the door. This is a great little place near Winter Park that has some great desserts for those longing for Gluten-Free fresh baked goodies.

Give it a try you might just like it. ^_^

Hello Gluten-Free People!

Welcome to my blog hope all is well with you. I have never blogged before but there is always a first for everything. This blog is for those of you who suffer from Celiac disease or those who just don’t want to eat wheat anymore. I will cover products that are cheap and easy to find. I will also review restaurants in the Orlando,FL area that cater to Gluten-Free (GF) foods and those that are listed as GF but are far from it. I will include pictures at every chance I can (Sometimes I must be ninja sneaky in some places). If ever you have a question I would be more then willing to help in anyway I can to answer it. So sit back relax and enjoy my blog. ^_^
