Found at Target:

Evol Scramble CUPS.
Target also had Fajita CUPS and Veggie CUPS which I did not buy.
From Evol’s website:

Welcome to the EVOLution of breakfast. Our new Scramble CUPS are packed with REAL FOOD: certified humane, cage-free eggs; proteins raised without antibiotics; and non-GMO vegetables. And they’re UNDER 210 CALORIES each, so need to compromise on the most important meal of the day. Go ahead, START SMARTER.

I tried the Egg Whites, Veggie and Cheese Scrample CUP.  It is certified gluten free by GFCO.  5oz, 120 calories, 9g protein, 2g fiber, 250 mg sodium.  Made with cage-free eggs. $2.99

The frozen cup is easy to prepare.  You just remove the lid, peel back the film, and microwave for 1 min 45 sec.

Following those directions the cup contents were heated through.  The eggs, potatoes and other vegetables were easily identifiable and the gouda/cheddar mix provided quite a bit of flavor.  And it is not too salty.  It tasted better than it looks in this photo.

The serving size is small: more of a snack than a full meal.

On the negative side, I’m not a fan of frozen and microwaved potatoes.  The texture is a bit mushy.

I doubt I’ll buy it again.  As it it is frozen, it doesn’t travel well and if I’m home, I can easily make eggs for myself.

Other Scramble CUP flavors:

  • Egg, Uncured Bacon & Cheese with Bell Peppers & Potato
  • Lean & Fit Chicken Apple Sausage, Egg White with Potato & Cheese
  • Egg White, Veggies & Cheese
  • Egg, Basil Pesto, Potato & Cheese

Martha White Muffin Mix

Found at Walmart on Warrensville Center Road in South Euclid:

Martha White Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffin Mix and Martha White Gluten Free Blueberry Muffin Mix.

These 7 ounce pouches, $1.48, were located in the regular baking aisle, and not in the special gluten free section of the store.  Only 50 cents more than their gluten containing counterparts.

They could not be much easier to make: Just Add Milk! proclaims the package.  Indeed, the directions call for 1/2 cup to be combined with the mix, fill muffin cups, bake for 11-12 minutes and cool 2-3 minutes.

The main ingredients are rice flour, then sugar, then respectively semi-sweet chocolate chips or artificial blueberry bits (not a berry to be found). The chocolate mix contains egg, milk and soybean ingredients and the blueberry mix contains egg ingredients.

So, how did they come out?  Remember your mileage may vary as you are driving a different oven and pans.

The “blueberry” muffin batter was the thinner of the two and the muffins were done at the suggested time.  In fact, I probably overcooked them by a minute or so as they were darker than golden brown.  Despite liberally spraying the non-stick muffin cups with non-stick spray, the muffins still stuck with half coming out in pieces.  Next time I’d use paper liners.

The “chocolate” muffins required an extra 2 minutes to be fully cooked and were easier to remove from the pan.

Both had good texture with an expected gluten free crumb.  The chocolate had a few chips and the distinct chocolate flavor.  The “blueberry bits” resembled the real thing in look and taste.

Each mix made 6 medium size muffins.

The packages each have an additional recipe: Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins and Gluten Free Blueberry Peach Crisp.
