Review: Trader Joes Gluten Free Brown Rice Tortillas

//  by 

  Welcome to another Meatless Monday and today I'll be sharing my review of the Trader Joes Brown Rice Tortillas. Bob takes packed lunch to work everyday and I used to love the olive oil wraps he eats but as they are wheat and I'm avoiding wheat due to bloating when I saw these along with the brown rice bread I figured I'd give them a try!   As you can see the packet holds 6 tortilla wraps and each is around 130 calories. I liked that they were fairly low in fat, and sodium too. …

Meatless Monday is where I post recipes, reviews or other meatless options and today is a post that has been a LONG time coming, as we can see from the date on the pic below (MAY!). Here is the review for the Trader Joes Gluten-free Brown rice bread. I have a whole heap of reviews waiting to post so look for LOTS of posts coming mondays on MEATLESS MONDAY!  Firstly I want to say that this bread was from back when I was vegetarian and NOT vegan.

Review: Trader Joe’s Corn Pasta

//  by 

As I've mentioned I've been trying new products over the last couple of months in an effort to avoid wheat, one of the products I tried was this corn pasta from Trader Joe's. I don't get any compensation from Trader Joe's I just want to share my opinion on the products I'm trying whether it be fitness, food, health, beauty or pet products. So here is my review on Trader Joe's corn pasta.   I have to admit that Trader Joe's could have been selling this for YEARS, but I tend to get …

Review: Trader Joe’s Gluten Free Brown Rice Bread

//  by 

So I've mentioned how I'm trying to be wheat free. Over the last year I've noticed that I definitely react to wheat. When I ingest wheat I bloat, like a balloon, it's not only unsightly it's damn uncomfortable! As such I've been looking to some wheat flour alternatives to bread and pasta. So today I thought I'd review the Gluten Free multigrain brown rice bread from Trader Joes.  This bread like all things gluten free is more expensive than regular wheat based products, this small loaf is …

Recipe: Waffle day – oat flour protein waffles

//  by 

Today is National waffle day and to celebrate I thought I'd share a waffle recipe I made recently. As always I take a recipe, and then switch out ingredients to make it healthier, cleaner, and wheat free. You could substitute whole wheat flour (no white flour!) instead of the oat flour, or try some other flour for shits and giggles! Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups of Oat Flour (I used Trader Joes) 1/4 cup of protein powder (I used Trader Joes Soy Protein Powder) 2 Tablespoons ground …

Review: Trader Joes Soy Yogurt

//  by 

So recently I tried to go vegan, I've been vegetarian for 20 years and figured it was time to take the final push. That didn't work out so well but we tried some new foods and I figured they deserved a proper burial review. I reviewed the cultured coconut yogurt milk previously and this was the other desert option I tried. Listed as Vegan and Gluten free right on the container this Soy Yogurt caught my eye immediately on our vegan shopping trip. I picked up this large 24oz vanilla, and a couple …
