Glutino Frozen Cheese Duo Pizza

We finally tried the Glutino brand pizzas - just a 9" pizza with cheese and sauce, frozen - baked as directed directly on the rack and then under the broiler and they're DELICIOUS. You could probably add veggies or pepperoni if you liked but it's the texture that's exactly like a regular (good quality) frozen pizza.

A little pricey but good enough to make me buy more.

fwiw

Glad to hear this, I have seen these in stores and haven't tried it because I was disappointed by Amy's. I really enjoy The grainless bakers pizza. I am going to pick up one of these next time I see it. Thanks for the info.

I thought they were ok. I like the Foods by George ones better. I haven't tried the Grainless Baker ones but I would bet they are good.

To be honest before becoming gluten-free, I had never had a frozen pizza, so in all honesty I don't think any of them are spectacular but it works for a quick lunch at times.

I have to agree with you on that, I never had frozen pizza before either, I was not a fan. Now though I can crave for it. Strange...craving something you never really had.

My son really likes the duo with spinach and feta. I think too, that Georges pizzas are better, but they are usually more expensive and I just make them anyway.. I like mine best! hehehe..

Good to hear that the Cheese Duo Glutino pizza is good. I really liked the Spinach and Feta one, even though it was very rich (at least to me). Trying the Cheese one is definately on my list of foods to pick up.

I am making the duo cheese pizza tonight for supper. I can't wait to try it. They were on sale at a health food store I popped into for $3.19. I figured that wasn't too bad , so I bought it. I am baking it as I type. Hope it's as good as you all say!! ;)

Dear Mamatide:

I agree with you 100 percent! Glutino pizza is the best, not to mention the cheapest. Most gluten-free pizzas are expensive, Glutino small personal duo cheese pizza is only $3.99 at the Good Food Company. I always add more cheese, sauce and some pepperoni and it is wonderful!

I thought the pizza was "OK". It wasn't the best I have had and it wasn't the worst I have had. Needs more sauce and more cheese. I did add my own peperoni. I would buy it again if it was on sale. However, probably wouldn't pay the 4.50 they were wanting when it wasn't on sale.

oh, is the spinach feta one good? I have one sitting in my freezer and I'm pretty nervous to try it, because the amy's pizzas taste like a giant rice cracker lol. Is it better than the amys?

Have any of you tried the Kinnikinnik pizza crust shells? They're pretty good. They are relatively thick (compared to the other brands) and stay crisp on the outside and soft in the middle. Even though it takes a few more minutes to add my own toppings, it makes for a pretty tasty alternative. Not to mention, I get a pack of 4 crusts for the price of one pre-made pizza ;)

i love them, but only work when it's just me having pizza! But they sort of taste like ellio's pizza if anyone is from the north and knows those!

I also really like the spinach and feta pizza, the crust was pretty tasty and had good flavor. Also, who couldnt use the extra serving of veggies especially spinach with all the vitamins.

Question: Does anyone know if there is a way to make these in the microwave? I would love to bring one to work once in awhile.

Thanks!

I tried the Glutino Duo Cheese Pizza last week and was so happy to have a pizza that tasted closer to the real thing than other Gluten Free Pizza's. I purchased the spinach and feta to try this week and I have to say I am really disappointed. It tastes just like the yucky rice crust pizza from Amy's. I'm going to stay with the Duo cheese!

The first time I tried it, I wasn't so impressed w/ the spinach and feta either, but I had bought a few, so I spruced it up a bit. I added some tomato sauce, hamburger, canadian bacon, and tomatoes to the top, and ended up really enjoying it. I can't eat them any more (DF), but I do sometimes crave that one.

My son LOVES the Glutino frozen pizza's.

I tasted the one I bought for him and he thought it was pretty good as far as gluten-free goes.

I have also used the Glutino gluten-free pizza crusts. The only downside to that is that you need to make sure to put the topping on the right side or they bowl the wrong way and the toppings slide off. LOL

My son liked the Amys gluten-free frozen pizza too but that was nearly $8. Bah!

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.

      I have osteopenia and have cracked three vertebrae.  Niacin is connected to osteoporosis! Do talk to your nutritionist and doctor about supplementing with B vitamins.  Blood tests don't reveal the amount of vitamins stored inside cells.  The blood is a transportation system and can reflect vitamins absorbed from food eaten in the previous twenty-four to forty-eight hours.  Those "normal limits" are based on minimum amounts required to prevent disease, not levels for optimal health.   Keep us posted on your progress.   B Vitamins: Functions and Uses in Medicine https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9662251/ Association of dietary niacin intake with osteoporosis in the postmenopausal women in the US: NHANES 2007–2018 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11835798/ Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/   Nutritional Imbalances in Adult Celiac Patients Following a Gluten-Free Diet https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8398893/ Nutritional Consequences of Celiac Disease and Gluten-Free Diet https://www.mdpi.com/2036-7422/15/4/61 Simplifying the B Complex: How Vitamins B6 and B9 Modulate One Carbon Metabolism in Cancer and Beyond https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9609401/

      Thank you so much for the clarification! Yes to these questions: Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, or vitamins? I’m within healthy range for nutritional tests, thyroid and am not anemic. I do have osteopenia. I don’t take any medications, and the dietician was actually a nutritionist (not sure if that is the same thing) recommended by my physician at the time to better understand gluten free eating.    I almost wish the gluten exposure had triggered something, so at least I’d know what’s going on. So confusing!    Many thanks!

      @JudyLou,  I have dermatitis herpetiformis, too!  And...big drum roll... Niacin improves dermatitis herpetiformis!   Niacin is very important to skin health and intestinal health.   You're correct.  dermatitis herpetiformis usually occurs on extensor muscles, but dermatitis herpetiformis is also pressure sensitive, so blisters can form where clothing puts pressure on the skin. Elastic waist bands, bulky seams on clothing, watch bands, hats.  Rolled up sleeves or my purse hanging on my arm would make me break out on the insides of my elbows.  I have had a blister on my finger where my pen rested as I write.  Foods high in Iodine can cause an outbreak and exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. You've been on the gluten free diet for a long time.  Our gluten free diet can be low in vitamins and minerals, especially if processed gluten free foods are consumed.  Those aren't fortified with vitamins like gluten containing products are.  Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, medicine, or vitamins? Niacin deficiency is connected to anemia.  Anemia can cause false negatives on tTg IgA tests.  A person can be on that borderline where symptoms wax and wane for years, surviving, but not thriving.  We have a higher metabolic need for more nutrients when we're sick or emotionally stressed which can deplete the small amount of vitamins we can store in our bodies and symptoms reappear.   Exposure to gluten (and casein in those sensitive to it) can cause an increased immune response and inflammation for months afterwards. The immune cells that make tTg IgA antibodies which are triggered today are going to live for about two years. During that time, inflammation is heightened.  Those immune cells only replicate when triggered.  If those immune cells don't get triggered again for about two years, they die without leaving any descendents programmed to trigger on gluten and casein.  The immune system forgets gluten and casein need to be attacked.  The Celiac genes turn off.  This is remission.    Some people in remission report being able to consume gluten again without consequence.   However, another triggering event can turn the Celiac genes on again.   Celiac genes are turned on by a triggering event (physical or emotional stress).  There's some evidence that thiamine insufficiency contributes to the turning on of autoimmune genes.  There is an increased biological need for thiamine when we are physically or emotionally stressed.  Thiamine cannot be stored for more than twenty-one days and may be depleted in as little as three during physical and emotional stresses. Mitochondria without sufficient thiamine become damaged and don't function properly.  This gets relayed to the genes and autoimmune disease genes turn on.  Thiamine and other B vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are needed to replace the dysfunctional mitochondria and repair the damage to the body.   I recommend getting checked for vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  More than just Vitamin D and B12.  A gluten challenge would definitely be a stressor capable of precipitating further vitamin deficiencies and health consequences.   Best wishes!
