Kinnikinnick Pizza Crust

My local Kroger just added Kinnikinnick pizza crust to their gluten-free selection. I could not believe how good they were. My non-celiac husband tried a piece and couldn't tell the difference between it and reg crust. They come 4 to a box (a very lg individual size)and cost around $8 in our area. I am going to try it with cinnamon and sugar for breakfast and the next time my family has sub-sandwiches for lunch I'm going to cut and toast for my "bread" My biggest complaint is that I only bought one box, thinking it's probably going to taste sour and crumbly like most gluten-free bread and I went back yesterday to buy more and they were sold out already.

These pizza shells are very tasty...my only issue with them is that one shell is 500 calories (the info on the package is for 1/2 of one). That's pretty high - considering you're going to top it with sauce, toppings, and cheese. I can eat at least one on my own...

I've been making "pizza" with Enjoy Life tortillas...for me it's all about the toppings anyway. No, not the same, but I wish I could buy a thinner (less calorie) crust.

These are very yummy! I put lots of sweet red pepper and pineapple on them so it counts as my fruit & vegetable serving. ;)

They are my favorite ready made crust. I always keep some on hand. I like to freeze the left over pizza sauce flat since I don't use a whole can on one and then with some Hormel pepperoni also on hand and cheese they make a quick filling no fuss meal. I have also baked them brushed them with olive oil and garlic and used them with hummus and thought that worked pretty well. Gosh I wish there was gluten-free pita bread.

I've been intrigued about this too.

But for those with problems with soy, they are made with soy flour.

I know that Raven's got problems with soy so that is a no go for her.

I have a site with the nutritional info here so you can all see. Click on the label ingredients and you can see it larger.

I miss pita bread too.

I need to try and make pita from Carol Fenster's book soon and see how that turns out ...

Bummer! Why isn't the gluten thing enough? Why more allergies and sensitivities? Sometimes life ain't fair! (not meant to start a discussion on God, fate, karma, my bad attitude, etc) :P

Sorry, Kareng .... and Raven too ...

Hopefully if one company is making these someone else will soon also and do them without the soy. We can keep our fingers crossed. Or learn to make them ourselves, probally easier than trying gluten free phyllo which I also miss.

Ours is in the health food section. Our town is quite small (25,000 or so) but we have a large retirement community so our selection is really high for a small town. They offer enough products that I don't have to drive 2 hours to an Earth Fare. If you have one in your area ask the manager for products. Our manger told me his department heads take training on different food allergies every year.

Cool, I've seen 'em but haven't tried 'em yet.

Udi's has rolled out their crusts, best I've had!

BTW, just had KK's animal cookies. Sweet, vanilla tasting, lighter cookies. Good stuff.

I've been pretty happy with all KK products.

I'm not a huge phyllo fan myself, but I found this link -- may not be easy the first time, but I understand this site to be pretty good about actually having good recipes.

      @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?

      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.
