- Celiac disease: Certified gluten-free rice noodles and simple, gluten-free seasonings keep the skillet free of wheat, barley, and rye.
- IBS: Carrot, cabbage, scallion greens, and garlic-infused oil flavor the dish without onion or garlic pieces.
- Shellfish allergy: Beef and rice noodles provide the protein and base, with no shellfish or shellfish sauces.
- Milk allergy: The noodles, beef, vegetables, and sauce contain no dairy ingredients.
Celiac check: watch for hidden gluten in soy sauce, stock, malt vinegar and seasoning blends, and oats that aren’t certified. Gluten gives food ideas, not medical advice: always check labels for allergens and cross-contact.
