Gluten Free Frozen Pizza

No Comments 27 March 2012

Trader Joe’s markets “Pizza al Pollo Assado” a personal sized pizza garnished with grilled chicken breast, refried beans, jack cheese, and tomatillo sauce. I thoroughly enjoyed the pizza, appreciated the price ($1.99) for a pizza that could probably serve two people, and am glad that it could be microwaved. I think that the best way to enjoy this pizza is to divide it in half and serve it with a salad or something. Otherwise, it is a bit spicy for my taste.

I recently wrote about “Against the Grain” pizza, which tastes great and — because the crust is made from tapioca starch — is probably the world’s only naturally gluten free pizza. It’s great pizza and the manufacturers are so careful about cross-contamination that the workers are not even allowed to bring wheat-based bread in their lunches.

Every Tuesday I will be writing about gluten free food products that I have enjoyed or about products that I advise you to try. I’d welcome your suggestions. Write a review and become a “guest blogger” or just send me notes and I’ll whip it into shape for you. My e-mail address is gfceliac@gmail.com.

Gluten Free Pancake and Waffle Mixes

No Comments 20 March 2012

I’ve enjoyed gluten free pancakes from Hodgson Mill and Maple Grove Farms and have been very pleased with both. It’s purely a matter of personal taste, whether or not the mix is available in your area, and the price. I’ve also prepared pancakes using Gluten Free Bisquick. They’re OK but need additional ingredients to improve the relatively bland taste and texture. (I used chocolate chips.) Since gluten free bisquick has a lower price, nationwide availability, and a major brand name — I’m endorsing all three products. Of course, pancake-lovers have literally thousands of other options.

How does America’s gluten free community feel about gluten free pancakes and waffles. Please let us know by leaving a comment at the end of this article or by e-mailing me at gfceliac@gmail.com.
