King Arthur Flour Gluten Free Products Review and Giveaway

Posted in Gluten Free, and Reviews

King Arthur Flour is known for their high quality flour and baking ingredients.  When we went gluten free, I thought that I would never be using King Arthur products again.  Imagine my surprise (and delight) when I found out that King Arthur Flour, a company known for their wheat products, was now going to be offering a full gluten free line-up of  products including their very own flour blend!  I was beyond excited that we would be able to test out this new gluten free product line.

Can Do Kid Bars Review

Posted in Gluten Free, and Reviews

Can Do Kid has 3 kids nutrition/energy bars that are gluten free.  These organic bars are formulated to meet the nutritional needs of active kids.  They have no trans fats, no high fructose corn syrup, 9 grams of protein, and 17 essential vitamins and minerals.  Each of the packages contains 2 small bars.

Nature’s Path Gluten Free Cereals Review

Posted in Gluten Free, and Reviews

After going gluten free, we quickly realized how few (read no) “regular” cereals were gluten free (that has changed since we first went gluten free). Most cereals contained malt even if the other ingredients were safe. We tried to find replacements for our old favorite cereals, but we found that most of them lacked in taste and texture. EnviroKidz was one of the first brands of kids cereals that actually tasted good and that Munchkin wanted to eat.  Panda Puffs (peanut butter puffs), Gorilla Munch (think kix), and Koala Krisp (chocolate rice crispies) became staples at our house. Munchkin loved…

Tropical Traditions Organic Palm Shortening Review and Giveaway

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Reviews

Going gluten free caused us to really have to change our eating habits.  While we were making the transition to being completely gluten free, we started to eat much healthier.  Because I had to pay close attention to all of the details on packaging, we started to realize how much junk we were really eating.  We started to make even more changes.  The one thing that I found difficult to replace was shortening.  I wanted a healthier alternative to regular shortening, but I couldn’t find anything. When I learned that I would be trying out the Tropical Traditions Palm Shortening,…
