Help
I'm pregant and I have been eating very healthy but I want Taco Bell, or Domino's - something really bad that tastes good so badly that I can't take it anymore. I won't cheat but I want to find a gluten-free treat that will do the trick.
Here are the requirements - can't be produced in the same place as gluten, yes I'm that sensitive and won't risk cc. I don't like meat and I can't have tomatoes or potatoes. I love spicy but I can't tolerate any spices right now, not even black pepper so I have been eating tons of bland food. I'm definitely looking for salty and not sweet.
Any ideas?

Make some nachos with chopped olives, maybe some chopped red bell pepper.
Sweet potato chips and hummus.
mini pizzas on toasted bread.

I noticed you can't do spices. I couldn't either for awhile. Have you ever tried drying papaya seeds in the oven and grinding them up in a pepper grinder ? They taste a little like pepper, but are actually digestive enzymes ... just in case you want to try it . You heat them at 250 degrees for 1 - 1 1/2 hours, then let them cool and fnish drying out on a paper towel ..
I like apples, fuji or pink ladies, with salt to satisfy my salt cravings ... olives sound good too though ..

Mission tortilla chips do it for me. Lundberg rice chips too. Homemade guacamole with lots of lime and a bit of salt works too. I also eat the Natural Ruffles or Lays brand potato chips, a little too much I"m sure. I'm not sure if they have CC issues though - I'm not that sensitive (yet).

Watermelon with salt is really good too.
And right now I'm munching on Kettle yogurt and green onion chips -- yum! (Gotta stop before I polish off the whole bag! LOL!)

I have found the Terra Chips to be very yummy, and not all of them are potato. They do a combonation of yucca, parsnip, taro etc. I am going to inquire on the gluten part though. I have taken it into my own hands to take items like taro root, parsnips yucca and slice them thin, spice em up, and bake them in the oven. It would be cheap and you would be assured of no gluten.

avocado and salt, or hummus and carrots. I also like to spread hummus and/or avocado on tortillas (you could sprinkle some salt on too) and I add tomatoes, but you could add whatever you like.

Trader Joe's White Cheddar Popcorn. Could eat bags and bags of it . Oh, and TJ's Spicy Soy Flaxseed Tortilla chips. I mourn the loss of these as can no longer tolerate flax seeds.
