Product Review: Pamela's Products Gluten Free

I have been dreaming about cookies lately. After the gluten free diet change I have not been able to find a decent  cookie store bought cookie. After a trip to Whole Foods, I came home with a bag of Pamela's Products Chocolate Chunk Cookie Mix, hoping that it will be tasty and satisfy my cookie cravings. I followed the directions on the package. Increased the baking time by 5 minutes. They came out super tasty!! Crispy around the edges and soft in the middle. MMMmm! Even my he-man of a husband liked them. I give it 5 stars, something that I will keep in the house all the time.








OOOh, here is a picture of the finished cookies. The do bake to a dark color, that is because there is coco powder in the mix, making it extra chocolaty.

Product Review: Pamela's Products Gluten Free Break Mix

I have been missing pizza since I switched to a gluten free diet. I went out looking for a gluten free frozen pizza and found nothing. I figured out that I will have to make my own. After a trip to Whole Foods, I came home with a 19oz pack of Pamela's Gluten Free Bread Mix. I checked out their website and found the recipe for pizza dough. I followed the one for a crunchy crust. I also added corn meal to the baking sheet to help my the crust even more crunchy. The recipe made 3 large pizzas. On one we put Trader Joe's Pesto Sauce and cheese, the other was tomato mushroom sauce with cheese and pepperoni and the last was tomato mushroom sauce with cheese. I didn't get a chance to take pictures of the finished product because my honey and his friends jumped on them as soon as they came out of the oven. If  a group of men who avoid eating healthy food at all costs  will eat it and enjoy something like this, that is saying something in my book. I give this mix 4 Stars, something I will definitely buy again.

Product Review: Oregon Chai Original

First off, I have never had a chai latte. I was looking for a morning warm drink that was not coffee. Lately, coffee has been upsetting my tummy. So on a whim at Wally World I picked up a box of Oregon Chai Original. It is gluten free. I followed the directions on the package. Boil water, mix in cup and I added a splash of cold milk to cool it enough to drink. It was lovely. Slightly spicy, lightly sweet, a lovely everyday delight. I am not sure what chai latte is soposed to taste like, but this product is super tasty and worth the $4. I give this mix 4 Stars.
