Glution's gluten free toaster pastry strawberry flavored

While at the grocery store, I was looking for some breakfast items that I could try out, I was starting to get sick of the usual cereal, peanut butter on plain G.F. bread & scrambled eggs each morning.
I found these and decided to try them out. I once again was shocked at how very few pastries there were in the box. These pastries are individually wrapped and only contain 1 per wrapper, so you are paying for 5 pastries in total, which in my opinion is a total rip off!.

The filling inside is alright, it's not like a jam and it's not like a jelly, It's more on the gummy side.
The outside crust is pretty plain but pretty tasty, once again though, it has a little bit of a bitter taste.
For one of these toaster pastries, it totals up to one meal in carbs and doesn't necessarily fill you up.
These would be good on the go for just a little extra snack but for a whole meal in the morning, IT'S A BAD CHOICE. The box says that it is a good source of fiber, but in all honesty, You don't get a huge amount of fiber from one of those pastries.

Over all, these are okay snacks but a huge rip off money wise, you'd be better off making your own.

I give these pastries a 2 out of 5 star rating!

Have you tried these before & do you like them or hate them?, I'd love to hear from you, please comment below.

Glutino's pancake mix

Glutino's make some pretty tasty stuff, one of them includes their Glutino Pancake mix. 
I initally purchased this because I was getting tired of the same old same old thing for breakfast and needed to change it up a bit. 

ONE GOOD THING ABOUT THE GLUTINO'S PANCAKE MIX IS: 
It tastes so buttery and amazing not only did I like it but my kids did as well. 

ONE BAD THING ABOUT THE GLUTINO'S PANCAKE MIX IS: 
It really does not make that many pancakes unless you make tiny little cakes that would be perfect for a baby doll plate. The bottle says that it can make 10-12 pancakes but unfortunately it really doesn't. 


The other thing I thought was worth mentioning is that it is a bit expensive. For one bottle you will have to dish out about $4.00 with tax and to have enough for a meal for yourself and your kids, you might as well purchase 2 or three of them, resulting in you spending about $8.00 to $12.00 just for pancake mix.  

Another thing I want to say is that I am kinda disappointed that the powder that is inside the container only fills about a quarter of the bottle and when you mix it with water like the directions require, the mixture only fills up half the bottle, meaning that you aren't getting very much mix for the price you paid. 

Overall this is a yummy pancake mix but overly expensive and almost not worth it unless you purchase 2 or 3 of them. 

I give this product a 2 out of 5 star rating.

Udi's Gluten Free Cranberry Granola


This seriously has to be one of my favorite granolas of all time.
I love to have this as a cereal. I pour a bit of it into a bowl and add milk, it is a pretty amazing cereal.
It is packed full of flavor and just wows the taste buds each and every morning I have it.

The oats even in milk have such a great chewy texture and the nuts and cranberries in here just add that extra amazing flavor. I can safely say that this granola is one of the perfect ways to start a day.

Overall, I am thoroughly impressed with this product and give it a 5 out of 5 star rating.
