Finally! I'm back with my weekly menu plan! The past few weeks I have been thrown off due to a different work schedule and some unexpected trips. Michael is now the first one home most days and he's been in charge of starting dinner, which means SUPER simple, but yummy meals. (Amy, aren't you impressed!) And since Michael has been so willing to be in charge, he's choosing the meals!
The ingredient of the week with the gluten free menu swap is cilantro. I'm not a fan of cilantro so we won't be making anything with this herb, but visit Gluten Free Mommy for more gluten free menu plans and meal ideas this week!
It's also strawberry season in North Carolina! Make sure to check out my recent post on how to make a gluten free fresh strawberry pie!
This Week's Menu:
Monday
Asian Veggie Stirfry with Brown Rice
Tuesday
Baked Macaroni and Cheese with GF hotdogs (Kelly -- see what you started!!)

Cinnamon Applesauce
Wednesday

The good folks over at Triumph Dining were kind enough to send me their latest edition of "The Essential Gluten Free Restaurant Guide."
This guide is really a fabulous tool to have if you are on a gluten free diet! It includes menus for over 4,700 restaurants that serve gluten free meals! The guide also contains lists of gluten free foods available in many chain restaurants in the back of the book. This guide is perfect to have in your car to have at a glance if you are traveling!
Triumph Dining was also kind enough to send me a set of incredibly handy cards that you can take into restaurants to show the waitress and cooking staff about what you can and cannot eat on a gluten free diet. These cards are kept in a convenient ziplock bag and are available in many different languages, which will enable you to eat safely at many different restaurants with international cuisine!
Unfortunately, I don't do a lot of traveling outside of NC, so I think these cards and the restaurant guide would be incredibly helpful to someone who travels a lot or lives in a location with more gluten free choices!
Would you like to have this wonderful guide and a set of these helpful cards?
You can buy them directly from Triumph Dining here, or you can register to win!
