Mayacamas Gravy and Gourmet Sauce Mixes

We didn’t have the opportunity to taste these products but we thought they were worthy of mentioning in this article since there is no other product like them (gluten-free) on the market — at least that we are aware of. Knowing that Celiac’s and people with gluten intolerance are constantly looking for convenient gluten-free products we thought this product may be a great product to try out. These products are all natural and contain no trans fat. They come as a dry packaged seasoning mix. Their gravy and sauce products include: Hollandaise Sauce Mix, Brown Gravy Mix (Vegetarian), Turkey Flavored Gravy Mix (Vegetarian), Savory Herb Gravy Mix (Vegetarian), and Chicken Flavored Gravy Mix (Vegetarian). They also have all natural Skillet Toss Mixes, flavors include; Spicy Pasta Recipe, Garden Style Recipe, Black Olive Pesto, Green Olive Pesto, Dried Tomato & Seafood Pasta Recipe. And that’s not all! They also have a line of Pasta Sauce Mixes; Creamy Clam Pasta Sauce Mix, Creamy Pesto, Alfredo & Pesto.

S’Better Farms Frozen Foods

I think this was one of my favorite products — maybe because I have kids and I know how much they like corn dogs and chicken fingers or perhaps because these products taste truly authentic — just like the real thing (and I love gluten-free products that are able to accomplish this!). We tasted the Beef Corn Dogs & Chicken Fingers and both products were great! Other products produced by S’Better Farms; Party Wings, Chicken Ballontine, Chicken Szechwan and Chicken Siciliano. These packaged frozen foods are 100% natural, contain no preservatives, are wheat free, gluten-free, non-GMO, antibiotic free, Kosher and are made with free range chickens. A great convenient food product — especially if you have children!!! For more information visit www.sbetterfarms.com or simply ask your grocer to carry this product.

So Delicious — Dairy Free Ice Cream Bars

These were really yummy! They are not only dairy free but also gluten-free. New flavors for spring include: Creamy Orange (low fat), Creamy Raspberry (low fat), Creamy Fudge (low fat) and two dairy free, sugar free flavors — Fudge Bar and Vanilla Bar. They really were delicious — with no residual taste of soy. If you’d like to see these products in your grocery store ask your grocer to carry this product.

Van’s All Natural Gourmet Wheat Free Waffles

They now have a full line of multiple flavors — all equally delicious. Flavors include; Original, Blueberry, Flax, Apple Cinnamon and Mini Waffles. These waffles are gluten-free, dairy free, egg-less, yeast free, kosher and most do not contain cholesterol.
