Okay, boys and girls...listen up!

Hang on to your hats; it's been a busy day, and we've got a lot of news to cover.

Chef Frank Terranova, of Johnson & Wales University and Channel 10's "Cooking with Class," will be supplying us with some gluten-free recipes. I contacted the Chef, and asked him for a flour substitution for my Chicken Gumbo recipe, which used browned wheat flour. When he sent me the substitution info, he also offered to mail me some additional GF recipes. I'll post them when I get them, and put up the Chicken Gumbo recipe soon.


Just heard about Federal Hill Brick Oven Pizza in Warren, RI, offering GF pizza. Now, you know I have to go check that out. Check out their menu at https://docs.google.com/open?id=1M-crvmCGm8BvYmgKz-bYznknB4Ci-g6Tf9u7RmVAvN9zrluRcvK5XPdJY_Pi








We all know that North Carolina is one of the GF hot spots, especially the Asheville area. Apparently, the Davidson, NC, Farmers' Market has a GF offering as well. From Scratch, in Cornelius, NC, sells GF pasta, cakes, cupcakes and bread, as well as frozen dough, ready for baking. The bakery has a Rhode Island connection as well: last year, they provided a week's worth of GF food for Rhode Island's Camp Celiac, a summer camp for kids with celiac disease.


Burton's Grill, with four locations in Massachusetts, as well as locations in Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Virginia, offers an extensive GF menu. Apparently, the CEO, Kevin Harron, has celiac disease – bad for him, but lucky for us, since it is undoubtedly one of the motivating factors in the restaurant carrying a GF menu. Here's the link to their menu: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0ByxePbK9bdxnNTFvZDlCb3FSUnlHcHBZUnRhZE9UZw



Greatist.com listed some of the healthiest subscription boxes, including one from "Healthy Surprise."

"So long chips, chocolate, and other sugar-filled snacks. Snacking has now become both healthier and easier. Filled with all natural, gluten-free, and (mostly) vegan treats, Healthy Surprises’ box is a chance to discover something new and tasty (like caveman cookies and skinny crisps!). Use discount code GREATIST for $5 off your next box." (reprinted from Greatist.com)
Feel Good Foods, manufacturers of GF egg rolls and dumplings, is giving away coupons on their FaceBook page. Get yours while they  last!
Well, that's it for now, kids. Please feel free to leave a comment if you visit any of these establishments, or if you try any of these products. I'd love to go everywhere and try everything, but I have limited funds, so...help a girl out and give me your feedback!
