Bell & Evans Gluten Free Chicken Nuggets

I bought the Bell & Evans Chicken Nuggets at Whole Foods a couple weeks ago and had been a little hesitant to try them because I was afraid I would be disappointed. I wasn't starving when I got home from work tonight so I figured I'd make them and if they sucked I could just chuck them and make something else.

WOW.... If I knew how delicious these were I think I'd have bought a whole case!!!! Exceeded my expectations doesn't begin to say it. Not only does it taste exactly like I remember a chicken nugget tasting but they are made with real, juicy white meat so it's not a nasty, fatty nugget.

I would truly buy and eat these even if I didn't have celiac!!!

I apologize in advance to anyone that lives in my area and can't find them at the White Plains, Whole Foods because I plan on buying every box! :P

I believe all Whole Foods are starting to carry them.

I just had to add to this post after trying the Bell & Evans gluten free nuggets last night. It was a good thing I was starving, cause I ate the entire box!!! :D I was so pleasantly surprised by these. Made my night! I have tried Ian's gluten-free nuggets before and thought they were absolutely disgusting. I got the Bell & Evans ones at my local Whole Foods. Glad I bought two boxes!!!

Is corn one of the ingredients? If any of you still have a box of these, would you mind looking.

Thanks

Oh happy day! I'm sure my new WF store opening in late Sept. will carry them then. When I asked when the gluten-free beer was coming, they said not until the new location opens. Then the guy went on to explain they are going to have a larger gluten free selection that they do now!

There is yellow corn flour in it.

I eat atleast a box a week of these. LOL!!!

I was so excited after reading about these, I went to my Whole Foods (Berkeley, CA) to find them and... Sadness, they have no wheat-free chicken nuggets. I will have to request they order them next time I go in, and request all the local gluten-free people I know to do the same!

I saw these the other day at my local Whole Foods, but I didn't buy them because the box said they are processed in a facility with wheat... I'm really sensitive and can't risk a reaction, has anyone else reacted adversely to these?

Do you know if the chicken nuggets have soy in them?

Our family had no reaction to them.

I think it says on their website it says these are made on a completely seperate line than their regular products so you should be ok. I haven't had any reaction.

I had these for the first time this weekend and oh my gosh are they good! My sister and I sat there eating them together (we both have celiac disease) and kept saying "wow" and "yum" throughout the meal! :)

Really they are delicious. Pricey though...$6.50 a box at my Whole Foods...

But they are worth it!

At first I was kinda thought they were a bit pricey, but then I realized I usually get 2 meals out of a box, so I figure that is only like $3.25 per serving. :)

That is what I am thinking too. Come to think of it, I think Bell & Evans regular chicken nuggets are not that much less in price...

They are just a high-quality product with a high quality price! If I can have something taste so good and is safe to eat, then the price is worth it!

I need to go buy more as I only bought two boxes as a trial run...

I agree with the positive reviews. I was so excited that my local WF got them in- I had been checking every week and all of a sudden there they were- I was several feet away but I started running towards the freezer case- I think I scared a mother and child browsing in the area. :P

I like the fact that we have a choice between tenders and nuggets.

i know this is well covered by now, but I had to go find the thread and post again. Just tried these tonight for the first time and they are really good. I used to eat weaver chicken nuggets all the time (before going gluten-free of course) and these are at least as good, if not better.

One tip- i find they're better when a little over-cooked. Take a little longer to get crispy than the box suggests.

Thank you for bringing life back into this post. I missed it the first time around. I'm going to go look for some tomorrow at Whole Foods. They sound great.

Been watching for these ever since the original post, but no luck. Can someone please please please post the ingredient list? I could ask to have them ordered, but need to be sure they're free of my multiple interolances.

Thanks in advance!

The ingredients should be listed on there, and if not you can contact the company!

just wanted to ditto that they are yummy- taste just like regular chicken tenders- and i also broiled them on each side to get the crispy'er they were kind of wet/mushy on the breading until broiled.

i also got mine at whole foods :)

I read this post a while ago and when I made the 2 hour trek to WF I found them. I haven't tried them yet but I am excited.

I have been making my own type of chicken nuggets. I buy chicken cutlets which are very thin and cut them in half. I use Gillian's bread crumbs which even my gluten-eating husband likes and then pan saute them. I added mushrooms and swiss cheese the other day and topped it with a honey-mustard sauce I made. It was pretty good.

I'm saving the nuggets for one of those starving days when I don't want to cook.

Are these milk/casein free as well?

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?
