Gluten Free Product Review & other Gluten Free Happenings

 


Udi's Rolls out New Products

 

Udi’s has some new products!! From Udi’s Whole Grain Dinner Rolls, Classic French and Crispy and delicious French Baguettes, Everything Inside Bagels, Mighty Bagels, Double Vanilla Muffins to Harvest Crunch Muffins.

I have to admit they have truly outdone themselves with their dinner rolls and their new french baguettes. These truly mimic the “real deal” in both taste and texture and will leave you stating,"Wow….I can’t believe these are gluten free!”

 
Their rolls are soft in the middle with a hard outer crust. They are sold frozen and can be warmed up in the oven. Nature’s Pharm is now carrying ALL these new products and showcasing them through a sampling from Friday Dec. 14th through Sunday Dec. 16th. Don't miss the Udi's roll and baguettes sale until the end of December!

These rolls are an absolute must have for your Gluten Free Holiday Dinner!

Here’s a brief description of their latest bagel and muffin creations:

Double Vanilla Muffins: these are really good and they taste a little like angel food cake in the texture of a muffin.

Harvest Crunch Muffins: these are made with cranberries, sweet potato, quinoa flour and pepitas. Need I say more? Yum!

 Everything Inside Bagels: made with millet seeds, flax seeds, poppy seeds, onion, salt and garlic….these do remind me a little of the “Everything Bagels” that I tried in  New York years ago during my pre-gluten free era…except that these are a little milder but still packed full of flavor.

Mighty Bagels: made with cranberries, quinoa flour, sunflower seeds, pepitas, millet seeds and flax seeds…I really liked these, perfect to have around the Holidays with a little smear of cream cheese.

Chosen Foods   

 

 

Their Products are packed with antioxidants, omegas, protein and fiber. For the health conscious out there here are some products that are good and good for you.

AVOmega, 100%  Avocado Oil: this oil is considered to be one of the healthiest oils on the planet and is the highest source of heart healthy monounsaturated fat…plus it is packed full of antioxidants.

It has a high heating point, which means you can heat the oil to 520 degrees and it won’t breakdown. Use this oil for cooking, frying, baking and salad dressings. Surprisingly affordable at only 13.95/per bottle.

AztecChia, Chia Seeds: high in fiber, omega-3, antioxidants and protein….this company never uses pesticides, chemicals or growth accelerators on their crops and their product is tested for purity and omega values. Use this in cereals, yogurt, smoothies, baked goods or as an egg replacer and binder in gluten free baking.

AztecNopal, Nopal Cactus Powder: this product harnesses the natural power of the nopal cactus and it is said to lower blood glucose and increase insulin sensitivity, promoting weight loss. Mix this product in juice, yogurt, smoothies or use in cooking and baking to lower the glycemic index of food.  Their products can be found at:  http://www.chosen-foods.com
