NY/NJ gluten free food recommendations outside of the city:

There were quite a few gems we enjoyed, including Famous Pizza on our way upstate from Newark. While not dedicated gluten free, the staff was very knowledgeable about cross-contamination and assured us that they use all separate bowls, pans, utensils, and ingredients for gf, and the pizza was delicious. Leftovers made an excellent lunch later that week.

We were staying in New Windsor, so we went to Hudson Taco twice for dinner during our stay. It’s right on the Hudson River and has a great variety of tacos, most of which are naturally gf. Knowledgeable staff who take food allergies seriously-just order on a separate ticket from the rest of the table so they’re extra careful. The street corn on the cob and the house-made hibiscus iced tea were a delicious addition to the tacos and chips and salsa.

Happened to find Rino’s Eatery for lunch on a day we were near Walkill and the farms, and it was such a treat!Extensive regular and gf menu, kind knowledgeable staff, and gf items are made completely separate to avoid CC. Had a hot Italian sandwich and the grilled chicken parm pizza, and both were so good I didn’t think they were actually gluten free. After the meal we met the owner/chef Rino who introduced himself to each of us in our group and shared some of his story-turns out his wife has celiac and that inspired him to make all kinds of delicious dishes that she could eat available in his restaurant. Would go back in a heartbeat.

Stopped into post lunch for some wonderful cider on tap and a walk through part of the orchard. We were too full to order food, but their kitchen does offer some gf options to pair with the cider tastings.

When traveling and at home we always read reviews on the app to help us decide where we want to try, so when we have good or bad experiences we always try to add our reviews on there to help others. All of these places got great reviews from us this time. Looking forward to these and more on the next trip upstate.

some foods aren’t that pretty, but when they’re super quick and delicious, who cares 😋
for each serving, toss the following into a pan and stir occasionally until it’s all heated up: around 1 cup riced cauliflower (I used frozen but fresh works too), a few cubes frozen butternut squash, about 3 oz. shredded cooked chicken (or rotisserie chicken), a handful of fresh spinach leaves torn into smaller pieces, a tsp. olive oil, and a dash of coconut aminos and salt and pepper

happy weekend, everyone 💗

anyone else putting on a swimsuit and taking a beach blanket out to their lawn or patio any chance they get on the sunny days, or is that just me? 🙋🏼‍♀️ trying to pretend I’m on a beach all the time, and bonus- boosting that vitamin D production

anyway, this super easy and quick garlic lime shrimp and broccoli pairs well with sitting outside and enjoying a warm sunset (mojito optional)

• thawed about 10 oz. peeled and cleaned wild caught jumbo shrimp and threw them in a ceramic non-stick skillet (I didn’t use any oil, but that works too) over medium high heat
•added about 1 tbsp. chopped garlic
•chopped florets of 1 head of fresh broccoli and added to the pan and tossed everything occasionally for about 6-8 minutes or until the shrimp was cooked through, and seasoned with a little sea salt, pepper, chipotle powder, and a generous squeeze of fresh lime 🍈🥦🍤

always sneaking greens and extra protein and fiber and lots of micronutrients into smoothies and smoothie bowls for the kids (and myself) - plus it’s so easy to chop up and freeze your produce for future smoothies so that none of gets too ripe and goes to waste

a great big THANK YOU to all those working really hard for the good of others despite extra risk to themselves, including all the selfless healthcare workers and first responders, truck drivers, and all those delivering goods like fresh groceries and much needed supplies to the high risk population who would otherwise just go without 💗

from our family (including those with compromised immune systems, those over the age of 65, and those with asthma and underlying conditions):

— we appreciate all you continue to do! —

* and a side note- if YOU happen to get a grocery delivery, show your thankfulness and be extra generous with tips and reviews because these lovely people are working extra hard, usually without the protection they need to minimize risk to themselves and their families
