I am going on a 2 week road trip to visit national parks in the Southwest and have eaten out only once since celiac diagnosis 14 months ago. I am very concerned about finding safe places to eat. Some of these places are remote so I will be bringing plenty of snacks and emergency food just in case I'm desperate. Does anyone have eating suggestions for any of these places? Any suggestions about gluten-free dehydrated food that I can pack?

[*]Las Vegas
[*]in Utah: Springdale, Tropic,Torrey, Moab
[*]in Arizona: Chinle, Sedona

Any advice will be much appreciated!

Hi,

Sedona has a pizza place called Picazzo's that makes gluten-free pizza.
http://www.picazzos.com/

Sounds like a great trip.

Sugar/Sweetener-free since ~3-05
Candida dx & strict diet since 5-30-05
Soy-free since 5-29-07 & it felt like a miracle! . .. ... for 6 months anyway :(

I recommend Troias in Sedona -- 1885 West Highway 89A, www.troias.com. They have rice pasta and gluten free pizzas, a wide range of sauces and toppings, delicious salads, make everything from fresh ingredients and generally are gluten-aware and passionate about their food. If you're a bit nervous about eating out, this is a great place to start. Sam and Rosanne Troia will look after you very well. On a 4-week trip around Arizona and California this was by far the best restaurant for our coeliac-suffering daughter, who said the pizza was the best she had ever had!
