Eating Out while Eating Clean in CT series : “Hidden Gems” part A

Fav hidden gems to Eat Clean in CT!

I won’t waste your time getting all wordy... I’ll just jump right in to the part you’re reading this for... without further ado, just a few of UniquelyBusyMom’s fav little spots to stop in for some delicious food that doesn’t compromise a healthy dietary style & offers easy to order GF and Vegan dishes!

1:Georgie’s Diner of West Haven,CT.

This place is a  small little hidden diner that  classifies as what most would call a hole-in-the-wall diner. It’s adorable tiny little classic vintage trailer shaped diner is nestled right in next to some large vacant looking old factory buildings & across from a shopping plaza off the main path. It’s is hands down the most extensive Gluten free And vegan menu Ive ever personally found anywhere at all! Take a look for yourself below! This is just a sneak peek: 

The prices may be higher than your standard diner, but this is not standard diner fare (though they do 

serve that as well, so it totally pleases EVERYONE!) 

Coffee w/ Almond milk... yes please!! No dairy...no worries... they’ve got you covered!

Classic egg sandwich minus the gluten. Organic, cafe free eggs only!

 

Feeling like a “cheat treat” that doesn’t actually cause you to majorly cheat? How about GF French toast w/ bananas and walnuts and REAL maple syrup!?

.

And don’t think of this little gem as a breakfast only sort of joint... they have such an extensive menu that it’s a wonderful stop for lunch , dinner & dessert! The only thing they’re missing in my book is some later hours for those fun little late night treats!!

2: Shoreline Diner & Vegetarian enclave in Guilford CT.This is actually the sister restaurant to 

Georgie’s... so they’re very similar in menu, with this location being much larger and have a bar as 

well. Their GF breads are baked fresh here for both locations! They are extremely allergen conscious

 and label their menu with the top 7 allergens. They are also a peanut free facility. A TOP recommendation for breakfast lunch dinner and dessert! You pay a bit more , but you are getting it in quality organic and healthy ingredients, fresh made deliciousness minus the worry about breaking your clean eating style!

GF and VEGAN TEMPEH Tacos!! 💯

GF Carrot cake... Ok, so it’s not going to top  the “healthy” chart, BUT sometimes you need cake!! And this is fresh baked, with real ingredients!

Stay tuned for some more Top Spots here in CT....
