Gluten Free Product Reviews and Favorites

PRODUCT TESTING:
Have you ever stood in front of a shelf full of gluten free products and didn’t know which brands to try? Which flavors?

Here are the gluten free products I’ve tried so, for example, you don’t have to buy six different kinds of linguine noodles before discovering that Tinkyada is the best. I'll keep adding to the list as time goes on.

FAVORITES:
Best GF bread: Udi's (in the bakery freezer section.) It actually holds together. You can actually make a sandwich. You don't need to toast it, and it actually tastes good!

Best pancake mix: Pamela's. These are very good. I make up a big batch and keep some in the freezer or refridgerator so I have breakfast for a few days.

Best Snickerdoodle: Enjoy Life. They have absolutely no allergens in their products. I have no idea how these cookies taste so good, but they do.

Best overall noodle brand: Tinkyada. Their noodles are made of rice and they have a really great taste and texture. They make all shapes and sizes of noodles. DeBoles comes in second.

Best Lemon Wafer Cookies: Glutino. These taste like the real deal!

Best Frozen Macaroni and Cheese: Amy’s Kitchen. I swear you won’t be able to tell it’s GF!

Best French Bread Mix: Gluten Free Pantry. This mix works best if you use a French bread pan or baguette pan lined with parchment paper. This way you can get two long, skinny loaves.

Best Cake-Like Brownie Mix: Pamela’s. These are my brother’s favorite.

Best Chewy Brownie Mix: Namaste. These are my favorite.

Best Chocolate Cake Mix: Bob's Red Mill. This cake is SO good, and it stays moist for a week!

Best Frozen Meals to Grab When You’re in a Hurry: Pretty much any Gluten Free item made by Amy’s Kitchen.

Best Donuts: Kinnikinnik (in the freezer section). These old-fashioned cake donuts are baked and are available in vanilla or chocolate glaze, or cinnamon sugar. After being defrosted in the microwave, they are amazing!

Best Frozen Pizza: Amy's Gluten Free Dairy Free with Spinach - this one tastes way better than their regular Gluten Free one. It's the spinach topping. It's really good!

Best Thick Pizza Crust: Kinnikinnik (in the freezer section). This company is amazing! These frozen, top-it-yourself personal sized pizza crusts come in a package of 4 and they taste SO good. My sister and I agree that these are the best things ever! (And even my gluten-eating husband likes them.)

Best Thin Pizza Crust: Udi's (in the bakery freezer section). Top your own thin-crust pizza. The flavor and texture is perfect.

Best Bagels: Udi's again. Plain, whole grain, or cinnamon raisin: all are amazingly like the real thing.
