What's In Your Gluten-Free Pantry?

Keep fav gluten-free items on hand in your pantry!

When you're gluten-free there are items that you'll need to keep in your pantry. I've been gluten free for about a year-and-a-half, and have found out which items I need to keep in my pantry for everyday use. Here are a list of items I keep in my pantry:

1. A good gluten-free flour mix. My favorite is Namaste gluten-free flour mix. Why? This mix is free from the 8 allergens, tastes great, has a good blend of gluten-free flours and is economically priced. I get a 5lb bag at Costco every 2 months or so. Keep this handy and don't run out!
2. Cornstarch. This seems like a funny thing to keep around, but cornstarch and gluten-free flour combination are perfect for thickening sauces or gravy. I use a tablespoon of cornstarch and a tablespoon of Namaste gluten-free flour mix. I add these in combination until the sauce or gravy is the thickness I desire.
3. Gluten-free bread mix. My favorite so far is

grandpa's kitchen. This brand made that tasty loaf of bread you see in the previous post! 

    4. Gluten-free pasta. Keep at least 2 boxes at all times. A favorite of mine is Daiya mac and cheese. Its dairy-free, soy-free, gluten-free but not taste free!
     5. Gluten-free cake mix. This is a biggie because you don't know when you will need a cake (or crave some cake) last minute. Cake mixes are relatively good. My favorite in this category is Pam's. They make a great cake mix (try the spice cake mix).
    6. Gluten-free pie crust. Pie crust is used in so many different recipes other than desserts such as pot pie, quiche and casseroles. I recommend Bob's Red Mill pie crust. Its the bomb and non-gluten free people will eat it to (don't tell them its gf, they won't know the difference!
