Donut Miss This 🍩

There is a new donut shop near Denver called ​Desert Donuts​. While the adorable shop offers gluten-y and gluten-free donuts, its owners are knowledgeable and careful about keeping their GF patrons safe.

They have a separate dedicated gluten-free fryer that is only used for making gluten-free donuts and great protocols to prevent cross-contamination. The server not only changed her gloves but also changed her APRON! That was a first for me.

These donuts tasted like the real deal (at least what I could remember donuts tasting like!). Here are a few deets:

  • These are yeast donuts fried in oil (not baked cake donuts).
  • They had a light, airy texture and a slight vanilla flavor. I would even say they were slightly chewy.
  • They have locations in Phoenix, AZ, Highlands Ranch, CO, and Greenwood Village, CO.
  • The owner told me that 30% of their business is gluten-free -- we are an important demographic to them!
  • I took partially eaten donuts home, and they still tasted good after sitting out on my counter overnight.
  • They offer dozens of clever mix-and-match toppings. Check out the six I ordered below.

If you're ever in Denver, stop by this wonderful donut shop. You may find me there, who knows?!? The Greenwood Village location is dangerously close to my house. 😳

Breakfast Beyond the Egg πŸ₯š

Egg shortages are bumming me out. So, while I love a good egg brekkie, I've been rotating my normal breakfast with this delicious yogurt bowl.

I topped plain, unsweetened yogurt with Jessica's Chocolate Chip Granola, Top Fox Honey Cinnamon Sunflower Seeds, Fruit Bliss Tart Cherries, and fresh mandarin oranges. I loved all the flavors and textures.

πŸ’‘ I hope my yogurt bowl creation inspires you, too!

I've asked these brands to provide coupons that I can share -- many of these companies have been featured in past Love Me Gluten-Free boxes. Here you go:

LOVEME20 = 20% off any purchase at jessicasnaturalfoods.com (try all 8 granola flavors)

LOVEME20 = 20% off any purchase at topfoxsnacks.com (try all their fun pumpkin and sunflower seeds flavors)

GLUTENFREE25 = 25% off any purchase at fruitbliss.com (hurry, this coupon expires at the end of March)

New Hot Product πŸ”₯

Uglies just launched a NEW potato chip flavor: Hot Honey Sweet Potato Chips. 🌢️ 🍯

I ordered a few bags on Amazon* and can honestly say they are SO GOOD! I found them to be more sweet than spicy (I personally like more spice), but they were full of flavor nonetheless.

Hot Honey is the new "it" flavor. Remember NUFS Hot Honey crackers? Those crackers were hot hot hot! πŸ”₯

If you received the March Love Me Gluten Free box, you got to enjoy the Uglies BBQ Chips. You also received a $1 off coupon that you can use at the store. May I suggest using the coupon to try the new hot honey flavor? Enjoy!

Events and News

Quiznos Goes Gluten-Free ... Sort Of: I received an email from Quiznos telling me they just added Udi's gluten-free bread to 150 US locations. I asked if they had any allergy protocols in place, and they have not responded to me (yet). However, all their communications say that the GF subs are prepared in the same space as gluten-containing subs, which means unintended cross-contamination is likely.

I probably wouldn't feel comfortable eating here without more information, but in case you do, I wanted to pass along this information. I'll update you if I learn more.

Sincerely,

Jenny 🩷

Hello Reader, This weekend would normally be "packing weekend" for my Love Me Gluten Free subscription boxes. But instead of packing 1300 boxes, I will be spending time with my family, taking a class at Orange Theory, and doing some pre-Passover cleaning. How is this possible, you ask? As many of you know, my family and I have been prepping and packing LMGF boxes for a full year. While I love my business, the physical parts have taken their toll on me and my husband. When we realized this...

Hello Reader, Many of you joined my Facebook Live Unboxing on Sunday (thank you!) and told me that you love being a part of this community. The gluten-free lifestyle can feel isolating at times, so these brief times together make us feel less alone. I have to tell you a funny story about how this crazy lifestyle connects us in special ways. My college roommate (hi Stephanie) emailed me this week. We haven't talked since 1999! She found me after she and her son were diagnosed with celiac...
