Pizza

Pizza is one of my favorite foods so finding a good gluten-free version was important. The toppings are pretty standard across the board; it’s the crust that makes it a good one!

I love pizza and let me tell you…all crusts are not created equal! I'm not sure what Bellatoria does, but I can honestly not tell a difference between a regular pizza crust and this gluten-free crust. It's that good! If you're gluten-free and have be...

I would say this is my second favorite pizza brand for a gluten-free crust. The pizza crust cooks up nice and crispy and the flavor is great. I often like to take the cheese pizza and add some mozzarella, basil and tomatoes.

Crackers/Cookies

I am a big cheese and cracker person so I had to find a substitute for the gluten-filled versions that didn’t taste like cardboard. Cookies can be hit or miss in the gluten-free world. Some can be dry or have a weird texture to them; I’ve saved you t...

You would think that Oreo would not mess with their cookie but yep, they actually did it. They made their cookie into a gluten-free version and I would dare anyone to try and tell the difference…they are just as crazy good as the regular cookies!

I couldn't even believe I found a pretzel that was gluten-free and tasted as good as these taste. They taste like a real pretzel, but one thing I really like is how light they are. They don't feel as heavy as a regular pretzel. I also enjoy the flavo...

Protein bars can be hit or miss on the taste and after-taste. I like so many of the Think protein flavors but If miss having Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies SO much! These bars are about as close as I can get. Think bars don't have a weird chalky taste ...

These protein bars are one of the best tasting ones out there in my opinion. You can taste the quality ingredients they use. They do come in a mini-size as well which is what I prefer. I do the mini's as a quick after-workout snack.

Can you ever go wrong with anything that is chocolate and peanut butter?  My love for peanut butter mixed with dark chocolate is just the perfect combination for a treat. And the fact these have less sugar and cleaner ingredients than the ‘usual’ option, makes it feel a little less guilty to eat them.

I love having these when I need a little something sweet and chocolatey. I don't need to eat many to get just the satisfaction that I need. Milk chocolate is just too sweet for me, so this dark chocolate version is just perfect.
