If you could walk into a physical store and purchase gluten free mixes & pastas (or anything that's worth mentioning) what is the best brand? What is the best mix? What is the best pastas? What is worth the money?

What have you found to be the best?

Tinkyada brown rice pasta, Kinnickinick english muffins I just tried the english muffins recently and they are yummy. I tried them after reading about other people on here liking them. Pastariso mac and cheese is great it is so fast and easy to make. That is a few for you. Oh and I really like the Daim cake that you can buy at Ikea I forget the brand name.

I like Ener-G foods Brown Rice Sweet Potato English muffins, corn loaf bread and granola bar cookies. I prefer Quinoa (with corn) pastas. My favorite mix is "The Cravings Place" peanut butter cooky mix, because I can substitute any nut butter and add any nuts for variety. Since I have to avoid dairy and soy, as well as gluten, I must seriously sleuthe for gluten/dairy/soy free brands. I like Annie's Salad Dressings. The only safe milk substitute which I have found that does not break down with cooking is Vance's DariFree Beverage Mix.

I've tried all the above and they are good but the bread mix Manna by Anna is by far and away my favorite. I made bread, muffins, buns with it, its so good.

I love Tinkyada pasta me and my boyfriend have made dinners that are to die for. Also I am a big fan of the envirokids crispy rice bars (only the Berry), i have tryed some cookies and actually had a new brand last night, but dont remember the name....have to check when I get home and they were really great. It is sometimes really hard adjusting to the difference in the tast of the food, but some of it actually makes you eat so much healthier. :)

Do you have a Whole Foods near you? They have the most delicious pre-made cakes delivered to their stores from a new gluten-free bakehouse they established in North Carolina (the building is dedicated completely to gluten-free baking). They have all kinds of breads, cookies, cakes. I bought this lemon-poppy-seed cake last week and it was sooooooo good!

Whole Foods Bakery - chocolate brownies, chocolate chip cookies and pecan pie --- the bread is not so good ---- dense. We have purchased the corn bread but have not tried it yet. The food is shipped to the stores frozen but does not taste like it has been frozen. Tastes fresh. The baker for Whole Foods was diagnosed with celiac so now he is head baker at their bakery in NC. There is one in Annapolis, MD --- Pamela's flour mix is good - I make pecan waffles and hot cakes --- I actually like that mix better than any containing gluten. I make my daughters homemade waffles using this mix and they love it (and they do not have celiac).

Hi!

I love Quinoa Pasta. It has higher protein and I think it has the best pasta like texture. I second the Kinninninicks English Muffins listed above and they also have a great pizza crust. Don Pancho's Gluten Free Tortillas are great, but I use them more for Quesadillas, than wraps. The best brownie mix I have tried is Pamela's. There is an option to add more chocolate chips which I do. Cause Your Special has a golden pound cake mix that is so good. These are the things I always have to make sure I have on hand for whenever I get a craving. So GOOd! Apparently I have some more things to try from what everyone else has stated.

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed...

      The Happy Tart review

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      The Happy Tart review

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling...

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
