Finally some love from Dunkin Donuts

I love Dunkin Donuts, who doesn't?  Bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel.  Yum.  Chocolate Glazed Donut, Yummier.  When I first went gluten free I admit to cheating on more than one occasion with the bacon, egg and cheese...finding the English Muffin didn't affect me quite as much.  But over time the sensitivity became more and more obvious and I had to cut those out too.  So sad but I've learned to live with the fact that I can get my tea (or iced tea when they run their 99 cent special...hope that comes back this spring!) without some of the yummy treats.

I can't explain how excited I was when I went into our local Dunkin Donuts Sunday morning before tee ball to pick up donuts for the kids and a breakfast sandwich for the hubs when I saw this lovely sign offering Gluten Free Muffins and Donuts.. "Really???"  I squealed with delight.  Of course the kids behind the counter were clueless, "no those aren't available yet, sorry....what is gluten free?.... No wait, I think those are available.  Hold on"....waiting waiting..... and out comes this beautiful basket.

Blueberry muffins and Cinnamon sugar donuts.  There goes my healthy breakfast of an apple and a cheese stick.  How could I resist?  I went for the muffin, it was tasty.  Definitely a great option on the run.  I don't even want to know the calorie count.  I know how bad the regular muffins are so I can only imagine the gluten free are similar.  

Now if we can just get some gluten free bagels and and a dedicated toaster :).  Baby steps.
