I bought these donuts on a whim after seeing them at several different grocery stores, particularly after seeing them sold out on more than one occasion.  What I learned from other people’s purchases is that they are very good.  30 seconds in my 800 watt microwave and there is a donut that tastes like it is fresh from the bakery.  They have the texture of a cake donut, with flavor coming from a healthy coating of Vanilla, Chocolate, or Maple glaze or Cinnamon and Sugar.

I have eaten both the chocolate and vanilla varieties and recommend either without hesitation.  With the rising cost of regular donuts, $0.55/ea locally, $5.69 for a 6 pack of Gluten Free donuts is not too bad.  Check your local grocery store.  If they don’t have them, you can also order online at:

Ian’s Fish Sticks

Ian’s Natural Foods, based in Massachusetts, offers a large variety of allergen free foods, including 17 that are wheat and gluten free.  Though I cannot speak for the rest of their products, the fish sticks are very good.

Made from minced pollack with a corn coating, they bake up as well as any other baked fish stick: nice and crisp.  Surprisingly, the flavor was much better than I expected.  The touch of garlic pares well with the other ingredients.  Don’t take my word for it alone, my toddler daughter loves them as well.  If she gets a hand on my plate I know I won’t be eating any more that meal.

Price: $4.99 for 8oz.  This totaled 12 fish sticks in my particular package.

Purchased at: Giant Food Stores.

Saveur Magazine to the Celiac Rescue

I received a subscription to Saveur magazine shortly before my Celiac diagnosis.  It has been a blessing while adjusting to a gluten free diet.  The tagline for the magazine is “Savor a World of Authentic Cuisine”, which includes a number of world cultures that do not regularly use any wheat products.  The December 2009 issue contains 16 gluten free recipes.  Of the remaining 15, there were several that could easily be converted to be gluten free by changing the flour used to something safe, or in the case of a lovely ham recipe, by using a GF Beer such as Bards.

If you don’t want to get a subscription, browse the website.  There are numerous recipes listed, again, many of which are safe as written.  Though I haven’t cooked a ton of recipes from the magazine, the ones I have were tasty and helped me through the initial feeling of deprivation that came with switching to a gluten free diet.
