Seriously - this has been a fabulous month of new GF finds in the GFP2B household and I couldn't be more excited to share them with my GF peeps (sidebar - isn't it great that Peeps are GF?)!
First of all, I finally found Udi's frozen food selections! I had been hearing about them forever! And while I was picking up shampoo (+100 other unessential items) at Target, I perused the frozen food aisle and there was a glorious case of GF goodness to behold!
A working mom's dream! Udi's frozen meals and breakfast burritos. A freezer full of deliciousness! The chicken parmesan was ab-fab folks. Spicy, flavorful and so so good. Winner winner chicken dinner! Boy loved it. He also loves the breakfast burritos. Sausage and egg, uncured bacon and egg varieties are just two minutes from a delicious breakfast. Some great Q&E (quick and easy) meal options for the busy household.
Next up - the cracker-sandwich-hall-of-famer - Lance - came out with cheese and peanut butter GLUTEN FREE cracker sandwiches!!!!!! They taste exactly like the original!
They're a little costly ($5/box) but they are soooooo worth it. The crackers are light, buttery and airy. Boy ate both boxes in two (2) days. I will have to ration them next time (but really, I couldn't blame him.....they were that good).
Lastly, I need to give a huge shout-out to the Girl Scouts. Their famous cookie campaign featured a gluten free option this year. Let me tell you kids - these were like trying to find the golden ticket in a Willy Wonka chocolate bar - I could not get my hands on a box anywhere!!! But then the boy's GF angel (his cousin, Amanda), scored us a box in Washington, DC. They were so good, we were unable to capture a picture because they were gone before you could say the Girl Scout pledge. Next time you see a Girl Scout, thank them for their service (and then slip them a $20 to reserve you a box of these awesome-sauce cookies).
Celiac awareness has really given the food industry a good ol' poke in the ribs and I couldn't be happier to see so many new products on the shelves for our GFProud2Be kids (big and small).
Have you found any new GF options lately? Please share!
