March Muffin Madness With Gluten Free Easily!

I am so excited to be a part of Shirley Braden's March Muffin Madness over at her amazing site: Gluten Free Easily.

Every day this month Shirley has been featuring a different muffin recipe from various gluten free bloggers. It's been so fun to check out each recipe - they are all so different and they all look delicious. Check them all out and be sure to comment on her posts as she has some amazing prizes lined up!

And spend some time on Gluten Free Easily. I've told many friends that I wish I'd known of it when we first went gluten free. Not only does Shirley have dozens of her own wonderful recipes, she features lots of other bloggers on GFE Facebook page and her all dessert site: All Gluten-Free Desserts All the Time!

Shirley will be featuring one of my very favorite, high protein muffins, my Sneaky Chocolate Peanut Butter Muffins.  My family cannot taste the sneaky ingredient and I love that they're getting extra nutrition.

Now, go! Check out March Muffin Madness and all the wonderful muffin recipes! Enjoy!

Guest Bloggers - Marie & Marc Review Bella Monica

Today Marc and Marie will share a quick review of one of their favorite date restaurants - Bella Monica - with us. You may remember them from this post.

  

Hi everyone, we're excited to share our favorite Italian gluten-free friendly restaurant Bella Monica with you! We've been there many times and truly enjoy the fact that we can find many gluten-free options. The staff at Bella Monica is very knowledgeable about gluten free diets. They offer a separate (but equally tasty) menu, use specifically colored dishes for individuals ordering gluten-free meals, & the best part in our opinions is the dedicated gluten-free oven they have to bake the meals. We've had the pleasure of being able to dine with family & friends who are not gluten-free, and they love the food just as much as we do. 

The last time we went, we took pictures of our meal to share with you- because words just can't grasp how delicious it is! Here's our favorite meal: 

For an appetizer they offer gluten-free bread drizzled with olive-oil, and herbs. 

When you order an entree you have the option of a salad- we love their Cesar that is topped with roasted peppers & baked Parmesan cheese crisps. 

Without fail, we always order the stuffed shells, simply put they're delicious! 

And on special occasions, we end with a slice of chocolate amore cake- it's a flour-less cake that is drizzled with raspberry sauce. 

We hope you check it out & enjoy as much as we do! 

Marie & Marc
