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!

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
