Hey carbo, nice to see some decent food out there. How about tofu??
I’ll be looking for you. Will you be roadside, in passthrough towns, or at overnight towns
Tofu, some seitan, tempeh… and brown rice. I will be a regular.
Thanks C.R., I never heard of “seitan” so I googled it. I just might try it! Hey, even I can learn sometimes, LOL!!!!
Sounds good!
Hey all,
if you are deciding between just doing either seitan or tempeh, please do seitan, tempeh is a much more appealing to a very limited group. seitan is more universal and the taste and texture is much more pleasing to the general population
CH, We’ll be looking for you! Thanks for being there and for the updates!
Hey Carbo Hut!
We look forward to seeing some healthy food out there, too!
Now here is a tough one: My wife is Gluten Free. Not a diet, an allergy to gluten. Sometimes it is hard to get food that is healthy and gluten free. Sounds like you may be hitting close with some of your offerings like the rice and meat (got to watch the spices, however).
Think you might have things she can eat?
justme, we will be offering tofu and different meat options each day but we were considering offering either tempeh or seitan as another alternative but have not decided on either yet. Either way, we will offer more than just tempeh or seitan (whichever we decide is easiest for us to get for the week).
Graddy’s in Carroll will have an awesome baked potato bar, loaded nachos and our very own Graddy’s All-Natural Fresh Salsa and chips. The salsa and chips are gluten-free. This ultra-fresh salsa which is made here in Carroll is sold throughout the midwest in Hy-Vee and Fareway Stores. Salsa so fresh your tastebuds will stand up and dance!!! Come see us downtown in the celebration area. Kay
cubbies1945, carnivores are welcome! We will have meat every day, those who are vegetarians and vegans are able to opt out of the meat each day and order a non-meat option. So don’t be shy, come and eat your share of meat and pasta every day!
Hello Riders!
Knowing there will be healthy meatless options is exciting! Do you have green smoothies? like with kale, cucumber and celery in with the fruit?
