I was going to work this morning and the car lossed power and stalled, happened once before. Tried to crank right after but nothing. Waited a minute, fires right back up drives fine.

Could this be a fuel issue somewhere?

Could be but doubtful, more like losing spark, carry a can of starting fluid and next time it stalls don't turn the key off, give it a quick shot at the throttle body and crank it, if no start then it's spark related.
Remember, don't turn the key off, you have to diagnose when the issue arises.

Check for codes. They can be there even if the CEL is not illuminated.
