Cup 4 Cup Flour

This stuff is amazing! It really is a cup for cup exchange! I have used it in homemade zucchini bread. It was fantastic. It is a bit pricey at $16/bag for 3 pounds, but worth every cent. Give it a shot. I bought mine at Hyvee West Kimberly.

Gluten Free Beergarita Recipe

1 can 7 up
1 Gluten Free Beer (I used New Grist)

Its so tasty!

Domino's Gluten Free Pizza

I just recently tried it. It's fantastic! It's made in a common kitchen so its not acceptable for celiacs, but it works for those of us that are gluten intolerant. I had a sausage and pepperoni. I really liked the crust. It was $12 for the 10" size, which I thought was about the same price as the other places that offer gf pizza. It is one of the top three for me.
1) Happy Joe's
2) Dominos
3) Biaggi's

Go Picnic

My lunch today is a "Go Picnic".  I have to admit I was skeptical that enough food was going to be in that box to fill me up, but I tend to eat way more than I should. At 290 calories per box it is lower in sugar than most stuff and high in protein, however the sodium count is HIGH at 890 mg per box. I love the crackers in the Turkey Pepperoni Cheese Box, but I already knew that since I purchase them. I love the idea that you can have a whole meal in a small box to just throw in your bag or locker. They are very "portable". They even have a little sudoku game on the inside of the box. It's pretty tasty!

Mindful Delights - Again...yeah they need another post!

I am stoked. I was given one of the Mindful Delights Pie Crust to try. I will never buy another kind. I loved it. I love that it doesn't taste gluten free. I love that it isn't flaky, its just good. I made a banana cream pie, my husband and son gobbled it up! My hubby even asked if I was sure it was gluten free. It was in the freezer section at West Kimberly Rd Hy-Vee. The more of their products I try the more I like them.

I also got to try one of their chocolate cupcakes. They are also in the freezer section. I will be buying these as a treat for myself when I really need a chocolate fix. They are only $2.50 each and I think that's reasonable for the amazing flavor and texture of the cupcake. They are good sized!

I was also able to try the muffins. They are smaller than the cupcakes but priced almost the same. They are just not something I will buy.

Hyvee (West Kimberly) now has these items in stock. All items are in the Freezer section for optimum freshness.

Amy's Shortbread Cookies

I recently tried Amy's Shortbread Chocolate Chip cookies. I wasn't impressed. I like my cookies soft and chewy and moist. These fell apart in the package before I could even take the first cookie out. They are fragile. They taste like shortbread cookies with a minor gluten free after taste. Would I purchase these? Nope. I am glad I got to try them, but they were not something I overly enjoyed. If you want a crisp cookie the Pamela's are a better option.

Spread the Bread - Rudi's

Rudi's is doing their second Annual Spread the Bread Campaign in honor of Celiac Awareness Month (May). I know it's near the end of the month, but you can still help Rudi's by selecting which charity Rudi's will be donating a dollar to in exchange for you downloading a $1 off coupon for a Rudi's product. Sounds like a win/win to me! They donate the $1 and you get a $1 off your next Rudi's purchase.
