Need Spaghetti Sauce Recommendations


GlutenFreeManna

Recommended Posts

GlutenFreeManna Rising Star

I've been making my own, but it's time consuming and I really don't want to make it with the hot days we have been having, so I need recommendations on jarred/canned pasta sauces. Which ones are for sure gluten free? I went to the store and got overwhelmed with the number of jars that had "natural flavors" or other vague ingredients.

(PS: I need them to be soy free and it seems many use soybean oil instead of olive oil. So bonus points if you know if a brand is soy free as well. However, if you just know it's gluten free I'll happily check the ingredients for soy myself. They have to list soy. I wish they had to list all forms of gluten.)

We use Newmans Own because you can understand every ingredient. Unfortunately, they clearly list soybean oil. One less for you to check.

I use Classico red sauce (I believe all of their sauces are gluten-free, but I would double check that statement) or Newman's Own.

We use Cupini's. It is the only one we have not gotten any reactions from...including no acid/indigestion. There are some brands we have tried that don't have soybean oil that are still hit or miss...I think because they also produce other "flavors" that do contain stuff (like dairy).

When you find a canned/jarred sauce that fits your requirements use the following method....time saver and does not heat the house.....

1 jar favorite sauce, 1 onion (chopped), 1 green/bell pepper (chopped), 1 can tomato sauce, 1 can diced tomatoes, 1 teaspoon of sugar and salt and pepper to your liking.

Place all in a slow cooker in the morning and put on low heat setting. Allow to simmer all day long, when you are ready (come in form work) boil noodles and brown 1 pound ground beef with seasoning or any other meat you use. Add to tomato sauce and Viola' You've got Spaghetti......

We use Bertolli. There are several varieties. Our favorite is the olive oil and garlic. It's ingredients are: tomato puree (water, tomato paste), diced tomatoes, garlic, bertoli extra virgin olive oil, sugar, onions, salt, spices. It is an Unilever brand. Here is a link:

Here is how I make my sauce. I gave up on the all ready prepared stuff.

1 can diced tomatoes (plain, with spices, onions, whatever you like)

3 to 6 tablespoons of a good olive oil

spices to taste

Heat to boiling in a skillet. Serve over spaghetti noodles.

Now if I'm not in a hurry, I might fry some onions, red and yellow peppers in the oil before adding the tomatoes.

I've used fresh onions and dried ones with this recipe.

If you can have dairy I do this:

I mix Parmesan cheese with butter. Almost equal parts but heavy with the Parmesan. I somethings add garlic and spices to this step.

I add the hot noodles to this and stir together.

Top with tomatoes.

If I want Alfredo Sauce:

Mix together:

16 oz sour cream

Juice of half a lemon

my favorite is classico. i have noticed recently on a few flavors gluten free was on the back label. i'm not sure about all flavors so definitely read the label.

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies.  Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      Thank you so much for your response  Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on.  I'm not eating gluten as far as I know.  However, I'm not sure of cross contamination.  My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ???  if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease.. Neuropathy from head to toes

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
