Whew! I just returned from Walt Disney World. The family had a great time but dining was always a burden. It seems to me that there are not a lot of CM-LO friendly options at the resort’s numerous restaurants. Many times a certain seafood dish had mixes of meat and or meat sauces. Especially on last Friday, the first Friday of Lent, extra caution had to be taken. I had to ask for substitute preparation for the food so that I could be completely meatless. It is tough to dine out unless you see a vegetarian dish listed. But you also need to ask what the components of the sauce are as well. A great percentage of chefs will use chicken broth in lieu of plain water or milk for many of their sauces. This as you know is not a CM-LO food. Vegetarian stock should be used. If you make a chicken dish use chicken broth. If you are cooking fish or seafood, then make a stock with just the fish and no meats. I was floored to see a clams and mussels dish with sausage buried in the stock. Always beware and ask! If your waiter doesn’t know then ask the cook! By the way, the Disney waiters are well informed and will tell you the specifics of the dishes if asked! Food for thought and food for Lent. CertifiedMeatless is the best! Make it a CM-LO day!
