CPK, aka California Pizza Kitchen, is fabulous! Ok, maybe not fabulous, but definitely quite good.
I haven't even attempted to eat at CPK for a few years just assuming I would suffer profusely as I watched other patrons stuff their faces with the delectable Thai pizza while I "enjoyed" water with a side of lettuce, plain of course! Sadly, I still have to watch others delight their taste buds with the Thai pizza (it is, of course, one of two pizzas that are not gluten free!), BUT I can now indulge in something better than ice! :-)
While at this PLC conference (teacher stuff) in Hollywood, I have learned and enjoyed a few gluten free options at CPK. The first night here I had the BBQ Chicken Salad, complete with dressing and everything! It was so nice to enjoy eating out and getting a new flavor.
It's easy to get sick of a cheeseburger with no bun! Not that I don't thoroughly enjoy my In-N-Out on a regular basis, I just appreciate new flavors every once in awhile. Yesterday my colleagues ate at a place that seemed very limited on gluten free options and knowledge. Rather than put my health to chance I ran back down to CPK and grabbed a pizza to go.
My choice this time was the garlic chicken pizza. It was so delicious, or I was just so hungry after a breakfast of hard boiled eggs and fruit, that I ate the entire pizza! My husband will be so proud!! :-)
All in all, two tasty and filling meals in two days! Yay for me and my belly!!

Pink Berry is delicious!
I'm in Hollywood at a teacher conference, and this was dessert last night.
Pink berry's original yogurt topped with coconut, chopped nuts, pineapple and strawberries. Mmm...tasty, tasty!
All yogurt flavors at Pink Berry are gluten free, so come indulge!
On their website they have gluten free cookie crumbles, but those weren't at the location I visited.
If you find them, please tell me where!!! :-)
