Tate’s Bake Shop Cookies

I wanted to recommend Tate’s Bake Shop Ginger Zinger Cookies. I found them at West Point Market in Akron.  They have a really nice flavor and crisp texture and don’t taste gluten-free at all more like a real bakery cookie . The package weighs 8 oz and is $5.99. They also sell a gluten-free chocolate chip cookie  which I haven’t tried yet.  Their  packages states that the cookies are baked in a gluten-free facility.

Rudi’s Gluten-Free Stuffing

Rudi’s makes a Savory Herb Stuffing which is very good. I found it at Heinen’s in Brecksville. I was never one to use a  quick stuffing before I went gluten-free but, this one is really great. To make it you add boiling water and butter and let it sit for 5 minutes.  I added  boiling chicken stock in place of the water,  butter,  and added a handful of dried cranberries and it was  really good. I think you could serve it and people wouldn’t know you were using a gluten free mix.

Against The Grain Baguettes and Bagels

My go to bread is the gluten-free frozen baguettes made by Against The Grain. It is frozen and if you defrost it for about 15-20 seconds you can slice off a sandwich size piece and refreeze the rest. You then toast it and it has a wonderful crust like a “real” baguette. It also worked to toast it in the morning and eat it as a sandwich at lunchtime.

Recently I tried Against The Grain Bagels and was pleased with the taste and texture which is very similar to their baguette. It’s not quite a real bagel but, really nice compared to some other gluten-free bagels and breads I’ve purchased only to be totally disappointed. These bagels are also frozen need only to be defrosted for 15 seconds and then toasted. The website for both bread products is www.againstthegraingourmet.com
