Morning Sunshine Breakfast Cookie: Apple Cinnamon Quinoa
Recommendation: Morning Sunshine Breakfast Cookie: Apple Cinnamon Quinoa
Review: Looking for something hearty, sweet, a little crunchy, filling, and delicious? Try the Morning Sunshine Breakfast Cookie, flavor: Apple Cinnamon Quinoa is fabulous. Eat for breakfast or that afternoon snack. It's high in protein and fiber. And low in sugar. But your taste buds won't believe it.
Where to buy: I found it in an airport store called Cibo, but it appears to be for sale online as well: https://www.opensky.com/lisa-harris-pantry/product/morning-sunshine-breakfast-cookie-gluten-free-apple-quinoa-case-of-12?osky_origin=google&osky_source=pla&kpid=5452bdcc683d6fe701000d37&gclid=CLah3viOxcYCFZKRHwod6HIAAw

Gluten Free Soft Pretzel at Phillies game
Recommendation: Gluten Free Soft Pretzel at Phillies game
Review: I read a review from a few years ago while sitting in Phillies stadium (aka Citizens Bank Park) trying to figure out what to eat. So, I left my family and said I was going to venture out in the rain in search of an old review which claimed that the food service at Phillies stadium (aka Citizens Bank Park) did indeed have one dedicated area somewhere in the baseball stadium dedicated to gluten free food. I had to ask 3 different food service workers who all enthusiastically confirmed that they did indeed have a gluten free area. They even told me exactly how many more sections I had to go to find it. Unfortunately, all 3 people gave me the wrong section. I started to wonder if it was really a joke. But I decided to reframe my thoughts toward making my search into a game in my head. Pretending a camera crew (albeit a prank type show) might be following me around. The last women I asked was very confident it was just a few more sections down. I'd gone half way across the stadium, so what was a few more feet. After stopping where she told me and finding nothing, I decided to go a few more feet. And that's when I stumbled upon a free standing large cart that did indeed sell only gluten free food! Of course they offered gluten free pizza, but I passed on that. Instead I ordered up a gluten free soft pretzel - what a treat! And every calorie was very much worth it. It was crusty and salty of course, but the pretzel actually had a little pinch of sweetness in the dough as well. I added a hotdog with a gluten free roll. Then I walked by the station where you can add sauerkraut as a topping. I didn't even know there were topping stands! A whole new reason to go to a Phillies game. Besides the game of course ;)
...now if I only wrote down the actual section of that stand - oh well. Next time!

Enjoy Life Baked Chewy Bars: Cocoa Loco
Recommendation: Enjoy Life Baked Chewy Bars: Cocoa Loco
Review: Nothing quite satisfies my chocolate craving like actual chocolate. Most things chocolate flavored don't do the trick. Always up for trying new gluten free food, I tried Enjoy Life Backed Chewy Bars, flavor: Cocoa Loco. To my surprise, it satisfied that chocolate craving. It wasn't overly sweet. And it didn't taste like a brownie. More like a cocoa chewy bar. I might just buy another!
