Just had a piece it tastes like a brownie…very rich and chewy…cake-ish or non-cake-ish I don’t care it’s gluten free heaven!

I find it is too sweet for me. I also don’t see a label on the cake itself that says it is gluten free.

Thanks for posting this! I love to cook, and was looking at countless recipes to try and make baked ziti that is gluten free and close to my recipe. I was making it for my friend who has to eat gluten free food. I’m new to the whole thing, but I’ve learned a lot from searching each ingredient online to make sure it’s safe. I made a dish for him, and a dish for the rest of the family. He took the rest of his home and ate it for lunch for 4 days! Thanks again

just be careful..not all of their toppings are GF! only their italian sausage, pepp for meats (as far as I know the chicken and chicken sausage are not)! But other than that, yes, Z pizza is Zuperb!

I just tried these and they are really good. But I also found Glenny’s Gluten Free Oatmeal Cookies in Oatmeal Chocolate Chip. I have to say WOW!! Very Tasty!! I was afraid I would never eat a good cookie again.

I know this is an old post, but I came across it via google, and didn’t want to leave the misinformation in Tanya’s comment out there.

First, Yeast extract does NOT contain gluten, not unless the yeast was grown on wheat products. I trust that if a company says their product is gluten-free, it means the yeast extract is gluten-free.

Second, I have no idea if yeast extract contains MSG, but whether it does or not is irrelevant to a gluten-free diet. MSG does NOT turn into gluten in your system. MSG is the sodium salt of the amino acid glutamate. It cannot an does not reassemble into the gluten protein in your system.

MSG *may* be made from wheat gluten, but if MSG is present in yeast extract (again, I have no idea if that’s even true), it’s derived from the yeast, not from wheat, so it would not affect someone who can’t eat gluten. If someone is sensitive to MSG and needs to avoid products with MSG, that is an entirely different issue and unrelated to whether they also need to avoid gluten.

I pick up the TJ’s Flourless Chocolate cake all the time because it is SOOOO GOOD! I find that it is cake-like but more compact and I haven’t had any reactions so I would have to say that their GMPs are pretty darn good. I’ve had my co-workers try the cake and they also agree . . . it is HEAVEN!!!

The cake is pre-made and I would suggest you get it a few days before the exp date (sell by date) for it to remain scrumptious – granted it rarely lasts long enough.

I now have the opportunity to shop at TJ’s and there are some really good pre-made dinners, etc. there that are wheat/gluten free; you just have to read the labels on a lot of them. But for the prices, they are better then at a regular store.

I tried this recipe over the weekend, with a few additions…I added meat and mushrooms and some diced tomatoes with mild chilis….very yummy! I also did not cook the penne before baking. A few of the bites had some tougher spots but in general it was fine. Thanks for this recipe – another winner!

Thank you for posting this recipe! I just finished up my Memorial Day Grill-out and this was a delicious part of it! I, like you, could not find any canned pumpkin (I checked 2 grocery stores!) so I used canned yams instead. I used the Kroger brand. It also said sweet potatoes on the label so I’m not exactly sure which it was. It was in syrup. I just mashed the yams and proceeded. I used walnuts for the nuts. It was absolutely delicious and some of the guests commented that you couldn’t tell there was no wheat in it! Thank you and I look forward to trying more of your recipes (I’m really eying your pizza recipe…when I get up the nerve I will try it!).

Thank you! We were kind of disappointed with the BC mix too. I’ll try these tweaks.

Peanut Butter Cookie and Banana Bread are my favorites. These things are life savers. I found them after Clif Bar discontinued their “Nectar” series.

Comment on Long time, no post. by Wheatless Foodie

I think that part of the challenge with healthy snacks is habit. We’re so used to grab-and-go snacks, and the convenience of buying them pre-prepared. An idea: have a weekle family snack-prep session. First, stock up on fresh fruits and veggies, nuts, dried fruits, gluten free cereals, etc. Pre-cut fruits and vegies and place in snack-sized food storage bags (reusable, if you want to be really “granola” about it). These go into the fridge in a prominent place for easy grab-and-go. The nuts, dried fruits, and gf cereals can be bagged individually or combined into trail mix, then bagged in individual servings sized bags.

Grocery shopping with kids is always a challenge!

Looking forward to hearing more snack ideas.
