Gluten Free Friendly Ideas for Valentines Day

Valentines Day can be a bit tricky when you have Celiac Disease or need to eat gluten free due to gluten sensitivities, allergies or for other health reasons. Unfortunately, many fine chocolates and boxed sweets contain gluten or have cross contamination issues. Or, you may have a child that feels left out when his or her friends are [...]

Product Review: Sun Flour Mills Sandwich Bread and Pillow Soft Rolls

My husband and I were watching a TV show, where the main characters went to Subway. I saw the sandwiches and started drooling. I imagined the soft, chewy bread with sliced turkey and crunchy fresh vegetables. Right then and there I had to make a Subway-like sandwich. Luckily, I had this Sun Flour Mills mix [...]

Product Review: The Pure Pantry Wholegrain Oatmeal Spice Cookie Mix

I always try to have one of these gluten free spice cookie mixes on hand from The Pure Pantry. These oatmeal spice cookies are a favorite amongst my gluten eating children and their friends.
Normally this gluten free cookie mix retails for $6.99 at my local grocery store. Ouch, I know, very expensive! However, occasionally it will go on sale [...]

Product Review: Simply Organic Carrot Cake Mix

January through March is full of birthdays in my family. That means lots of cake. Each birthday we try a different cake, hoping to find the one to top them all.

Product Review: Amy’s Organic Soups – Chunky Vegetable & Fire Roasted Southwestern Vegetable

Here are two more organic soup samples sent to us from Amy’s. After loving their hearty style soups, I was interested to discover how other types of soup compared.
I first tried the chunky vegetable, pictured to the left. When I read “chunky,” I envisioned large vegetable pieces with minimal broth. I was disappointed when I noticed relatively small vegetables pieces. [...]

Product Review: Boulder Granola

This “groovy” granola was provided complimentary by Boulder Granola. Their slogan is “Unleash Your Inner Hippie” and their granola comes packaged in a resealable bag featuring a colorful and whimsical label. Hmm, would this granola be as interesting and fun as it sounds?
If you remember, I am a granola girl. I would eat it for [...]

Product Review: Chebe Focaccia Bread Mix

Another winner from Chebe!
Chebe sent me this focaccia mix to test, and it was pretty tasty. To prepare this gluten free flatbread, I added olive oil, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, eggs, and milk. I kneaded it by hand until all the ingredients were integrated and the dough felt fairly smooth. I pressed the dough evenly [...]

Product Review: Udi’s Classic Hamburger Buns – dairy free

Thank you Udi’s for saving me at my tailgate parties this fall!
My family started a tradition of tailgating at our college alma mater home football games this year. It’s a fun time to spend together, playing sports and tasting some great cookout foods. Typically I would bring a Kinnikinnick hamburger bun, drizzle it with olive oil [...]

Product Review: Heartland’s Finest Macaroni & Cheese

On the list of comfort food, mac and cheese is at the top. I saw this gluten free macaroni and cheese mix from Heartland’s Finest for on clearance for 99 cents and decided to give it a try. I hoped it was better than their white cheddar flavor.
I found that preparing this mac and cheese [...]

Product Review: Kinnikinnick Bread Crumbs Panko Style -Dairy free, Nut free

I found these 12.3 ounce box of gluten free panko style bread crumbs from Kinnikinnick at my local Harmon’s grocery store on sale for $4.49. I was anxious to try them out, since I have a few recipes that call for them.
This is another comfort food that I have missed. There is nothing quite like [...]
