Food I Miss

I have been really good about resisting food that I used to eat... but today, Landen ate a pop tart for a snack. I bought them before I went gluten free - they would be my go to snack when I was hungry. Two come to a package and I gave Landen one and I wanted to eat the other one...but I didn't.

Jimmy John's sandwiches! I love any kind of sub sandwich. In Omaha, where I grew up, I liked to eat at a sub place called Little King's (similar to Subway or Jimmy Johns). As a family we ate a place called Razzi's Deli - they had the best reuben sandwich. Now I miss Jimmy John's. They should make a gluten free bread option.

Scones - I love a good scone. I haven't eaten one since I went gluten free. I know there are recipes out there for gluten free scones. I just haven't had the courage to try making them...I don't want to be disappointed because they may not taste the same as a "real" scone. Some day I'll see the "wizard of oz" and get my courage to try...

Cereal - my favorite cereal is Cinnamon Life. I could eat it everyday for breakfast - I always made sure we had a box sitting in our pantry. There is still a half of box left in the pantry - I need someone to eat it so I am not tempted.

Goldfish crackers - They are so yummy. I give them to Lia and I want to eat them too. I have been looking for a gluten free version of goldfish crackers but have not found one yet.

Bruegger's Bagels - They have the best breakfast sandwiches and non-breakfast sandwich, the Thai Chicken sandwich. We don't have one close to us so that helps.

D'Amico & Sons pasta salads - My friend, Kendra and I always choose D'Amico & Sons to eat at when we get together for dinner. We both love their pasta salads. They have a sampler platter where you can choose 3 different salads. They used to have butternut squash ravioli but they took it off the menu...so sad...it was delicious. (I am actually going to try and make my own...we'll see how that works out...I will let you know)

Okay, I need to stop talking about the foods I miss...my mouth is watering and I am starting to get a craving...
