Ever since posting about my decision to say so long to gluten, I’ve gotten a ton of requests to share my favorite g-free products. I must admit that I’ve sort of been putting it off just because there are just so many incredible gluten-free products to choose from! But since there’s no way I could jam-pack them into one post, here are a handful of my current favorites.
Julian’s Recipe frozen buttermilk pancakes.
We all know there’s nothing that can compare to homemade pancakes….but frozen pancakes can come pretty darn close. I love these ones from Julian’s Recipe, which I got on sale at Whole Foods. I often eat two topped with peanut butter (and/or butter, syrup, coconut, and white chocolate chips. ahem.) as a nighttime snack.
Van’s frozen waffles.
See above comments for pancakes and apply here. Van’s waffles are much more sturdy, though, which makes them great for one of my favorite easy meals - waffle sandwiches.
Love Grown Foods granola.
I’ve raved about Love Grown in the past, but I’ve got to say it again - hands down the best granola out there - gluten-free or not!
NuGo bars.
I knew that NuGo was the maker of my favorite gluten-free “candy bar,” but it turns out they know what they’re doing with “healthier” bars too. I love the hearty sweet + salty flavor of their Dark Chocolate Trail Mix bar:

And I’m also a huge fan of their raw Cranberry NuGo 10 bar.

This one sort of has the consistency of a LaraBar (another g-free fave), but it’s more dense and has a great flavor. A must-try, for sure.
Ancient Harvest quinoa pasta.
When I was a kid, I would eat huge bowls full of pasta like it was my job. It was - and still is - a favorite carb coma food of mine. So you can best believe I was on the lookout for a gluten-free pasta replacement. Enter: Ancient Harvest quinoa pasta.

While I do love me some quinoa, I like that this pasta doesn’t really taste like it. To me, it just tastes like regular old pasta! And I like that.
So there you have it - just a few of my favorite gluten-free products. I’ll be sure to post more soon! Until then…
Have you tried any of these?

I really like Pamela’s products, especially their baking mixes. The brownie mix is really delicious.

I’ve seen so much positive reviews on Love Grown Granola-I think I’ll give it a try. Thanks!
I love Vans waffles and NuGo bars. I haven’t tried the trail mix yet, but I love the mocha chocolate.
DA pancakers sound BOMB!
I’ve tried Van’s waffles and I love them! AND I considered buying some GF pasta last time I was at the store but chickened out. I’ll have to give it a go though!

Think Thin bars are pretty good, or at least the one flavor I’ve had! And Almond Thins crackers are good, too.
that pasta salad looks SO. GOOD. every single time I see it.
and I still have yet to try van’s waffles!
Hannah says
I love quinoa pasta (I just figured out I can cook it in the microwave!)
I love amy’s “bunny” snacks. All the GF flavors are the best! (Which never happens! Usually all the cool flavors of stuff I find aren’t GF)
Also, Food Should Taste Good Jalapeno Chips are amazing.
Emily says
I’ve been gluten free for years and I’ve never tried any of these! I guess I’m pretty skeptical on trying out any sort of gluten free product..usually they taste bad aha!
I love nu go bars, so so good! I’ve been looking all over the place for love grown granola too, still must try it.
I’m not gluten free but one of my favorite g-free products are nana’s cookies, they texture is chewy and perfect! They sell them at whole foods, definitely a good option when you need some sweets
Ohh I haven’t had frozen pancakes in a long time, but I’m going to be on the lookout for them now! What a yummy treat! And I’ve been eyeing those NuGo bars but couldn’t decide whether I should take the plunge… now I def will! I’m also DYING to try Love Grown Granola!!
What awesome gluten-free finds! I am sad to say that I have still not tried Love Grown granola
I eat gluten, but I’d definitely try those pancakes. And I’ve still yet to try Love Grown! It seems everyone but me is on that bandwagon

I love Van’s waffles!
I want to try that pasta - it sounds like a win! I love Mary’s Crackers and of course-Larabars!
I love Van’s waffles! I bought the buckwheat berry ones a few weeks ago, but they’re gone now. That reminds me that I need to go to Whole Foods and re-stock!
Ohh I haven’t tried (or even seen) the buckwheat ones - will be on the lookout!
Have you tried Nanas cookies?? Some of them are gluten-free and taste freakin amazing!…random question but ice cream and fro yo are gluten-free right?
No I haven’t! Where can I find them?!
Whole Foods for sure sells them- the coconut chip and choc chip are my 2 faves!
Brown Rice tortillas!!! Love love love! They almost remind me of flour tortillas, which are my fave.
Erin says
Van’s waffles are absolutely amazing. Nuff said. Trader Joe’s has a different brand of frozen waffles that are really good as well. Udi’s is probably my favorite brand so far! They have bread, bagels, muffins, etc. Try Udi’s if you haven’t already!

Ellsworth Cheese Curds come in 5 delicious flavors (4 of them being gluten Free!! (Natural, Ranch, Garlic, and Cajun: all gluten free) They mail curds across the country from the website. They are also sold in locations from Wisconsin and Minnesota. It’s a great snack!
