Campbell’s now sells a gluten free version of their condensed cream of chicken and cream of mushroom soups.
Please note Campbell’s is still selling the original gluten containing versions. Read the labels carefully as the cans are located next to each other, and look very similar, making it easy to confuse the two.
I found the soups at Meijer and the gluten free and the gluten-containing versions were the same price.

We were having a pizza bagel craving so picked up a package of these lovely O’doughs and created our own for a Saturday afternoon treat!
AND THEN, share your comments/pics of your creations from your batch of bagels!
Gluten Free Watchdog, run by by Tricia Thompson, MS, RD, has issued an updated statement on the use of oats in a gluten free diet.
From the statement:
In the latter half of 2022, four labeled gluten-free oat products from three manufacturers commissioned for testing by Gluten Free Watchdog had gluten test results above 20 parts per million. Three of the four products were certified gluten-free at the time of testing. These results are unprecedented for GFWD.

Gluten Free Watchdog recommends that if you are going to eat oats on your gluten free diet to choose purity grown oats from her vetted list.

When I was last at Heinen’s the Cappello’s line of products included pizza and pastas. You will find their products in the frozen food section. If you find more items please let us know!
Our household sampled the cheese and the pepperoni pizza and the lasagna noodles.
The pizza was super tasty and the crust was crispy! We’ve tried numerous frozen pizza options and have found these to be some of the most acceptable for a quick home meal.
The lasagna noodles were totally extraordinary! We made a vegetarian lasagna as we were having non-meat eating guests for dinner. They loved the pasta and had no idea it was gf. Best of all unlike other lasagna noodles that we need to par-cook or pre-cook these are used as is right out of the box.
Let us know what you find, share ideas on what you make!
Over the past month we’ve tried all the items in RP’s pasta line and found them all to be amazing!
You will find them in the cooler with the cheeses, sauces and fresh pastas!
We used the tortellini served up in our bowls from a pot of chicken vegetable soup. I would not add the pasta to the soup directly since it will overcook. Because these pastas are not dried or frozen they cook up quickly, – under 5 minutes. Cook the pasta, add it to your bowl, top with your soup or sauce.
We tried the pastas with traditional pesto and artichoke lemon pesto both were perfect.
