I have been gluten-free for two months now and I haven't had any bread. Really, I'm not craving it at all. So that's good. But I could totally go for a grilled cheese with some tomato soup. MmmMmm good.
So. what's everyone's favorite gluten-free bread out there?
And tomato soup? Are there any gluten-free premade brands that I can just pop open the can, add some milk, and go?
That would be so super.
thanks!

Originally from WI, I am still in denial over my newfound casein intolerance. I fear I will not be allowed back into the state if I can no longer eat cheese and drink milk. This could pose some trouble over holidays when I wish to visit my family. It also poses a problem involving the severe rage I feel when I have to throw away somebody's unfinished cheese sticks. That is so wrong.

Kinnikkinick is perfect for grilled cheese. Annie's makes a gluten free tomato soup that's pretty good. I had to do the same thing about a month in.

I like Pamela's Wheat Free Bread Mix. Smells, tastes and acts very much like wheat bread. I use it to make BLTs, PB&J, toast, really anything. Doesn't crumble or anything. It should work just fine.

I haven't tried making Grilled Cheese with it, but it should work out just fine. Might have to try that out.

I do the same thing as Elonwy. The kinnikinnick makes great grilled cheese, my son loves it. I was feeding him that almost everyday for a bit, as it was the only thing he would eat.

I also used the Amys Tomato soup. I think someone on here also posted a recipe on here too. If I remember correctly is was relatively easy.

oh yeah, I made the Gluten Free Pantrys Sandwich Mix too. That worked well too, not as good as the Kinnikinnick though.

I've made grilled cheese with Ener-G Brown Rice loaf and Light Tapioca. Spread with butter and grilled with cheese, they really aren't bad.

For soup, my favorite is Imagine Foods Tomato Soup in the quart sized aseptic package. It's supposed to be served "as is", but we all like to add a little water - I'm sure milk would be good too.

I also vote for the Kinnikinnick or Gluten Free Panty's French Bread mix.

I haven't had it in a while but Heinz makes a great gluten-free tomato soup. This is imported from ENGLAND and I used to find it in the import food at my grocery store. I had 3 cans the week I found it but now am avoiding nightshades and haven't had it in a while. It tasted just like campbells soup. If you find it call and make certain it is still gluten-free.

when I make grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup I dip Kinnickinick bread in egg (one side only, grill the side dipped in egg put cheese in middle... and I use Amy's Creamy Tomato soup, you don't have to add anything, it's yummy the way it is.

I use challah bread for grilled cheese & I love amy's tomato bisque soup..... I use three different kinds of cheese. I also like the fake rye gluten-free bread for grilled cheese also.

Amy's tomato soup is AWESOME!

I was a big grilled cheese and Campbell's tomato soup girl pre-diagnosis, but I think I've come to like Amy's soup better

The BEST bread I have ever eaten is from Whole Foods !! It doesn't taste anything like gluten free bread at all. It tastes like the normal white bread I ate before being diagnosed.
The kind I get is called "White Sandwich bread"

I must have tried every gluten free bread it seems and this one is hands down the best.

I personally love the pacific tomato soup in the original or the roasted red pepper i do believe is the other.. the soup comes in like a carton type thing and you refrigrate the rest. You can get it at kroger and wild oats that I know of.
For Bread I love the gluten free pantry favorite sandwhich bread mix its great I have made some fabulous grilled cheeses with it! I hope this is helpful
