    The Gluten-Free Biscuit Queen

    In the early internet days, selling biscuits online wasn’t really a thing. Today, it’s Callie's Hot Little Biscuit — a nationwide handmade biscuit brand and South Carolina eatery with gluten-free options that sell out daily (seriously!). In this episode of Eat With Dominique, I sit down with Carrie Morey to unpack the story behind it all. We break down:  • How sending her mom’s biscuits from Charleston to NYC offices accidentally sparked a business • Why growing up in the South made “feeding people” her love language • What happened when her family’s biscuits were served at Reese Witherspoon’s wedding • And the moment gluten-free went from unknown to non-negotiable for her eatery We also discuss why Carrie decided to build her business around being a Mom - not the other way around. If you’ve ever felt like you have to choose between your family and your ambition — this conversation is for you. 🌟 And if you want to try Callie's Hot Little Biscuit for yourself, you can use code DOMINIQUE15 for 15% off at calliesbiscuits.com 🧡 And of course… don’t forget to like and subscribe to the Eat with Dominique podcast for more conversations like this. — Now, without further ado — grab a seat, and let’s Eat with Dominique. — 💌 If you’re navigating gluten-free or gut-friendly living, the Eat with Dominique newsletter is where everything connects — early access to full recipes, practical gut-health tips, community polls, and exclusive brand codes.  Join here: www.EatWithDominique.com (it’s free 💌) — Watch more Eat with Dominique podcast episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@EatWithDominique Follow Dominique: Instagram → instagram.com/eatwithdominique TikTok → tiktok.com/@eatwith_dominique 🎧 Listen on Apple & Spotify: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2598088 — This podcast is all about actionable tips, trustworthy brands, and real strategies to make gluten-free, gut-friendly living easier, tastier, and pain-free.

    Why Olive Oil Is Nature’s Ozempic — And Can Stop Your Bloating

    Bloating, cravings, hormonal acne. As women, we’ve all been there — and we’ve all been told that it’s normal. That we should just live with it. But what if we don’t have to? In this episode of Eat with Dominique, I sit down with Maya Ayed, founder of Alya Health — a company helping women take control of their gut health, hormones, and energy with a daily dose of medicinal-grade extra virgin olive oil. Maya shares why inflammation is often the root cause of gut issues, why olive oil can be just as anti-inflammatory as ibuprofen, and why your cravings, bloating, and hormonal acne are simply signs your body needs the right nutrients. She also dives into why she believes food is the next supplement, and how olive oil has even been called “nature’s Ozempic” for its benefits on blood sugar stabilization. 🎁Listen till the end to find out how you can receive a free box of Alya to try it for yourself. 🫒Check out Alya Health: https://alyahealth.com And of course… don’t forget to like and subscribe to the Eat with Dominique podcast for more conversations like this. — Now, without further ado — grab a seat, and let’s Eat with Dominique. — 💌 If you’re navigating gluten-free or gut-friendly living, the Eat with Dominique newsletter is where everything connects — early access to full recipes, practical gut-health tips, community polls, and exclusive brand codes.  Join here: www.EatWithDominique.com (it’s free 💌) — Watch more Eat with Dominique podcast episodes:https://www.youtube.com/@EatWithDominique Follow Dominique: Instagram → instagram.com/eatwithdominique TikTok → tiktok.com/@eatwith_dominique 🎧 Listen on Apple & Spotify: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2598088 — This podcast is all about actionable tips, trustworthy brands, and real strategies to make gluten-free, gut-friendly living easier, tastier, and pain-free.

    Why Gluten-Free Shouldn’t Taste Gluten-Free

    If you’ve ever felt disappointed by gluten-free food — or left out at the table because you couldn’t eat what everyone else was having — this episode is for you. In this episode of Eat with Dominique, I’m joined by Julie Moreno, founder of Jewel’s Bakery & Café, a gluten-free restaurant in Phoenix known for food that challenges everything you thought you knew about gluten-free. Julie shares how her daughter’s health journey inspired her to open a completely gluten-free restaurant, why she refuses to serve anything that tastes gluten-free, and what most restaurants still get wrong when it comes to gluten-free dining. We also talk about the emotional side of food — feeling included, ordering without stress, and being able to fully participate in moments that revolve around eating. 🌵If you’re in the Phoenix area, you can get 20% off at Jewel’s Bakery & Café now through the end of April — just mention Eat with Dominique when you go in. Limited to an entree for dine-in.

    The Gluten-Free Mac & Cheese Every Gluten-Free Girl Needs — NYC’s S’MAC

    Raise your hand if you grew up loving mac and cheese — only to suddenly be unable to eat it once you went gluten-free.🙋🏾‍♀️ Same. Today I’m chatting with Sarita Ekya, founder of S’MAC, the iconic New York City mac and cheese restaurant that has become a go-to for the gluten-free and allergy-friendly communities.

We also discuss: • How endless mac-and-cheese taste-testing led to Sarita developing her own gluten allergy • Why removing all-purpose flour from their recipes required her engineering degree • The surprising challenge of creating a vegan cheese that people actually want to eat • Why the celiac community gives the most meaningful feedback • The deeper mission behind building a restaurant where everyone can eat • And the most underrated ingredient in any mac and cheese This episode is especially for women navigating gluten-free or gut-friendly living who still want comfort food that actually tastes good. If you’ve ever missed the foods you grew up with — or wondered whether gluten-free versions could ever live up to the original — this conversation is for you.

    The Gut Health Ingredient Hiding in Plain Sight

    What if one seed could help ease digestive struggles — and it’s been hiding in plain sight this whole time? In this episode of Eat With Dominique, I sit down with Arif Khan and Sabeen Hasan, the founders of Chikka Chikka — the roasted fennel seed digestive redefining gluten-free gut health and digestion. As children of immigrants from India and Pakistan raised in the U.S., Arif and Sabeen grew up between Eastern food traditions and Western ingredients — which ultimately inspired their product. Their fennel snack pairs a traditional digestive ingredient with maple syrup, bridging cultures in a gut-friendly way. In this conversation, we talk about: • How women’s guts change as we get older — and how fennel can help • The digestive science behind fennel (antacid, anti-inflammatory, fiber source) and why people are using it for acid reflux and digestion support • And why they refused to turn their product into just another sugary snack Because so many foods marketed as “healthy” are still mostly sugar. And sometimes the most powerful ingredients have been right in front of us all along. If you deal with gut sensitivity, digestive issues, or food triggers, this conversation is for you.

    She Went Gluten-Free — Then Built a Granola Brand

    23 years with gut issues.  One cookie that tasted like wax. In this episode of Eat With Dominique, I sit down with Lisa Marsh, the founder of Ms. P’s Gluten Free, to talk about the long road that led her to build a granola brand rooted in health, flavor, and community. For decades, Lisa lived with digestive issues doctors couldn’t fully explain. She was told she had a “spastic colon” at 19 — but it wasn’t until she was 42 that she was finally diagnosed with a gluten-related issue. But when she tried going gluten-free, the next challenge appeared immediately: the food. One of the first gluten-free cookies she tried tasted, in her words, like hot wax. Yikes. Instead of settling for gluten-free food that didn’t taste good, she started baking — determined to prove that gluten-free could be both healthy and delicious. In this conversation, we talk about: • Living 23 years with undiagnosed gut issues • The moment she realized gluten might be the problem • Building Ms. P’s Gluten Free while staying connected to her South Side of Chicago community • And why she refused to bring gluten-free food to coworkers if it tasted like “dog food” Lisa also shares advice for anyone navigating a gluten-free diagnosis and learning how to advocate for their health. If you’ve ever struggled with gut issues, wondered whether gluten might be affecting you, or wished gluten-free food actually tasted good — this conversation is for you — especially the Black women navigating symptoms that doctors sometimes overlook. If this episode resonates, subscribe and share it with a fellow gluten-free, gut-friendly friend.
