What a treat! Pizza for lunch at North Star without cheese. I went to the pizza station to see how they could fulfill my pizza craving without breaking my Dairy Free diet. Chris at the pizza station ask what I wanted and I said surprise me. Surprise me he did. I did some forging at the Chefs Table, Asian Station and Kosher (luckily it was dairy free today) coming away with several dairy free options to my liking such as green bean, sprouts, and quiche. I got the sign that pizza was ready and returned to the pizza station. Chris had prepared a beautiful pie consisting of “secret sauce”, extra virgin olive oil, fresh garlic, and fresh basil finished with salt and pepper. Few ingredients, but more flavorful than you can imagine. This one definitely needs to be added into the pizza rotation.
Variety of Dairy Free Options
Catching up on my Dairy Free Adventure.
Last night I attended Mardi Gras at RPME. There was a lot of great food to choose from Gumbo, Jambalaya, Dirty Rice, Jambalaya, and much more. I felt fortunate to have such a selection and everything was quite tasty. I did have to pass on the bread pudding which is one of my favorite desserts. Since I am staying true to a Dairy Free diet even when off campus for the week, I scoured our cupboards for a snack when I got home. I soon realized how much dairy is a sub component of many of the foods I eat on a daily basis. I finally settled on a granny smith apple which was quite good.
This morning I went to Trillium for a scrumptious breakfast burrito. The portion is generous! The staff were helpful navigating the options and even checked to ensure the potatoes were not grilled in butter! Not to worry…they aren’t
Team Dairy Free
Started the day with a Soy Latte from Carol’s with a shot of almond…it was very good! The staff at Carol’s was extremely helpful navigating the dairy free options.
