TASTE-TESTING: Sausage, Soup and Pasta

I found several products recently that I hadn't tried before and was happy with all of them.  At Whole Foods there were some sausages that were tasty plus, they had no sugar.  One was Mulay's Sausages Original Hot Italian Sausage.  For more information go their website at mulayssausage.com.  The other was Wellshire All Natural Andouille Sausage.  For more information go to their website at wellshirefarms.com.

The last trip I made to Fresh & Easy I noticed they designated a whole section in one aisle for gluten-free products.  I selected several items to try and the following are the ones I liked the most.  First up is Gluten Free Cafe's Chicken Noodle Soup.  I was really excited about this one as it had the perfect balance of all ingredients and wasn't too salty like many canned soups can be.  This soup also had no sugar! I also tried their Cinnamon Sesame Bar.  They had a few different flavors but I liked this one the most.  It is even fortified with vitamins, minerals and prebiotics.  For more information on products by Gluten Free Cafe' go to myglutenfreecafe.com.

Next up is Schar's Gluten-Free Wheat-Free Fusilli pasta.  I liked the texture and color of this pasta and it tasted great with some marinara.  I think it would be great to use in a pasta salad as well.  Visit schar.com for information on additional products.  I hope you will try these out for yourself - happy eating!
