Eating in and Eating out

Everyone with a food allergy or the parent of someone with a food allergy knows how completely insane it is to try to eat out. How about eating in? When you are in a hurry, those premade meals and easy things like chicken nuggets can be impossible. My sister and I have a whole list of foods on the quick, eating in or eating out, that we substitute for the good old standbys. Here is a list off the top of my head, I'll update it regularly with the more I think of.

EATING IN:

MAIN DISHES
Corn Dogs - Kroger Brand is egg/milk free!

SIDE DISHES
Quick Rice Sides - Rice-a-Roni Chicken Flavored Rice is Dairy Free

DESSERTS
Apple Pie - Marie Callendars is egg/dairy free
Chocolate Chips - Kroger Brand is milk free

FAST FOOD
McDonald's - Hamburger buns are egg/milk free, apple dip contains milk so beware

KFC - Extra Crispy, Grilled and Hot & Spicy don't have milk or egg.

Wendy's - Hamburger buns are milk free, there is no milk/egg wash on the chicken but beware of the breaded chicken (milk) and the sauces (egg/milk).
Wendy's Gluten free menu

Chick-Fil-A - It's so sad, they use a milk wash on all their chicken, even the grilled and non-breaded.

Burger King - Chicken fries are milk free, as well as Tendergrill Chicken Fillet, Spicy Chick'n Crisp and the hamburger buns.

Panda Express - Chow Mien and Steamed rice is a must here, egg/milk free, I also get mandarin chicken for the kids. Beware, the steamed veggies have a sauce with milk in it.

Red Robin -
