Gluten free pizza from Boston Pizza
I was slightly concerned when I first decided to move to Banff in Canada for the winter season. The reason? Well it’s a small town and I was uncertain whether there would be many options for me when eating out.
But it turns out I had no need to be worried, as there are plenty of options when eating out including gluten free pizza from Boston Pizza.
My friends actually thought it was quite funny when I first saw the words ‘gluten free’ on the pizza menu, I think I squealed and jumped up and down in my seat. You see I lived off Mexican while in the US due to the lack of quick and cheap gluten free options when eating out (maybe I just didn’t do enough research).
I decided I had to order a gluten free pizza, choosing the BBQ Chicken pizza (I checked to make sure all toppings were gluten free also). I also ordered the starter Spinach Salad (fresh spinach leaves tossed with poppy seed dressing and topped with sliced mushrooms, smoky bacon, diced tomato, chopped egg and crumbled feta cheese).
Both the pizza and salad were delicious and it was far too much for me to finish (yes the photo below is the starter size of the Spinach Salad).

The pizza wasn’t a bad price at $9.05 and if you split the pizza and salad between two it’s a pretty cheap meal at $15.04 (+ tax and tips).

I have already been back once since and am sure I will be back a few times over the next 7 months.

Nourish, Banff

Just when you thought there could not be anymore restaurants in Banff with gluten free options. I have one more for now… and it’s a good one. It took me 10 months of living in Banff and finally in my last month of living there I got around to visiting Nourish. I had been told
The Elk & Oarsman, Banff

As I have mentioned before there are a number of places with gluten free options in Banff, and The Elk and Oarsman Pub & Grill is no exception to this. I was very excited to find that The Elk & Oarsman actually have a separate two page (!!) gluten free menu. I usually go to the
Cauliflower crust pizza

Yes you read right – I made a pizza with an unconventional main crust ingredient – cauliflower. I wanted to try this recipe as gluten free pizza crusts are so expensive to buy and they are often loaded with sugar. I also love a challenge and to try new and different things. I never thought I

When I returned to Revelstoke for the second time (we were actually planning to drive straight through however due to a road closure we were stuck there for about four hours) I was planning to go back to Jus Juiced & Bean Caffe. However much to my disappointment (they had really good gluten free wraps)

Earls is one of my favourite places to eat dinner in Banff and it was a winner with my family when they came and visited too. It looks quite fancy and therefore the first time I went there I expected it to be rather expensive. However I was plesantly suprised, it has a great atmosphere, reaonsable prices, great
Phil’s Restaurant, Banff, Canada

Phil’s is an American style diner open for breakfast and lunch in Banff. I had been told by a few people that it wasn’t that great but a couple of friends and I decided to test it out for brunch any way. My first impression was that it probably hasn’t changed much since it opened
Eagle’s Eye Restaurant, Kicking Horse, BC, Canada

The first time I went to Kicking Horse we walked into Eagle’s Eye Restaurant and pretty much walked straight back out. You see working in the ski industry in Banff doesn’t pay too well and Eagle’s Eye looked like an expensive fine dining restaurant. We ended up eating at Whitetooth Grill at the bottom of
Gluten free friendly supermarkets, USA and Canada

I have to admit I didn’t do a huge amount of cooking whilst I was in the US. For the first two months, while working at a summer camp, all of my meals were cooked for me. Then I started traveling and since I wasn’t staying in one place for more than four nights there wasn’t
Eddie Burger + Bar, Banff, Canada

Almost every night of the week in Banff there is a food special on at one of the pubs/restaurants. Now you would assume that $6 cheese burger night at The Eddie wouldn’t be coeliac friendly. However I was assured that The Eddie had gluten free burger buns and sure enough having a quick look at
The Cambie Bakery and Cafe – Vancouver

I have been living out of hostels for almost 6 weeks now and one of the great things about them is that pretty much all provide free breakfast. However this is not such a perk when you are coeliac as the free breakfast tends to consist of toast, bagels and glutenous cereals. A number of

Yummy looking pizza. I understand your squeals of delight. Gluten free is not that easy to find in the US, is it. At least you’ve had Mexica.
