If you’re looking for an all-natural gluten-free cereal that your whole family will fall in love with, you’re going to really like this week’s Win-It-Wednesday sponsor on BeFreeForMe.com.

Kimberley’s Own All Natural Granola has pure (gluten-free!) goodness in every bite! So many gluten-free granola’s are mostly made up of gluten-free grains, sprinkled here and there with a couple of nuts, pieces of dried fruit or seeds. How Borrring!

But Kimberly’s Own All Natural Granola is different. Each bag is packed with OVER 40% of the good stuff. You know… things like dried apricots, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, Goji berries, almonds and even raw cacao nibs.  This is a true artisanal line of gourmet cereal that are great by the handful, as cereal, a topping for yogurt and ice cream, and also in recipes.

Made in Canada under the strictest of guidelines, Kimberley’s Own Granola guarantees the use of PURE oats (Pure oats means that they are sourced from a manufacturer that only produces oats thus avoiding cross contamination from gluten – wheat, spelt, kamut, rye, barley or triticale.)

Kimberley’s Own come in three (3) varieties: Just Seeds, which contains over a 40% blend of a variety of seeds – including chia seeds, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds; Original Blend, which contains over 40% nuts, seeds and fruit – including dried apricots & cranberries, Goji berries, almonds, and sunflower seeds; and my favorite, Nibs & Nuts, which contains over 40% raw cacao nibs and walnut (who said a girl can’t enjoy a little chocolate in the morning for breakfast?)

More bonuses? Kimberley’s Own Granolas are also free of corn and dairy, and are vegan. They also don’t contain any oil or water (yes… no oil!) or refined sugars. They’re nutrient dense, high in fiber & protein, cholesterol free and do not have any added sodium. All this… yet they so delicious. =) Pure goodness.

All these reasons are why I am so very excited that Kimberly’s Own All Natural Granolas are this week’s WIN-It-Wednesday sponsor on BeFreeForMe.com.

A total of four (4) BeFreeForMe members will be selected to win a prize pack of the three (3) varieties of Kimberly’s Own All Natural Granolas, plus a bonus pack of recipe cards. Two winners will be randomly selected from the entries received before Tuesday, February 26, 2013 at 11:59 PM EST, and two more winners will be randomly selected to win from the entries received between Wednesday, February 27 and Tuesday, March 5, 2013 at 11:59 PM. SO – make sure you enter two times to win!

Reply to this blog post and tell us what variety of Kimberley’s Own All Natural Granolas you think you’d like the best (Me? I’m still sticking with the Nibs & Nuts… the cacao nibs and walnuts remind me of the chocolaty taste of a hot fudge sundae sprinkled with walnuts!)

Good Luck, remember to believe in pure goodness, and as always…

This week’s Win-It-Wednesday on BeFreeForMe is sponsored by a super convenient and super tasty meal solution while on the go… GoPicnic.

Just like the name implies these gluten-free meals are like a picnic on the go!

Most gluten-free folks know that when life gets a tad bit crazy, planning tasty and nutritional meals-on-the-go becomes no picnic. That is why I was so excited when I found GoPicnic, quick and easy meals on-the-go, as a healthy and nutritious snack or meal options.

I love these products. They don’t need any refrigeration, and there’s lots of varieties and options in every “meal kit”. My favorite for lunch is the gluten-free Tuna & Crackers. I love the lemon pepper tuna spread atop the Crunchmaster Multi-Seed Crackers; for a side there’s the all-natural applesauce, followed up by a yummy fruit & nut mix and a dark chocolate square! Perfect for an airplane, road trip, or even for a between -meeting or after-school snack.

Other varieties include: Salmon & Crackers (gluten-free), Hummus & Crackers (gluten-free, vegan, kosher), Turkey Pepperoni & Cheese (gluten-free), Turkey Stick & Crunch (gluten-free), and the Sunbutter & Crackers (free of the 7 common allergens, gluten, and vegan).

Also… don’t think that the convenience of these meals-on-the-go will have you sacrificing taste.  These meals are packed with gourmet delectables that are made for adults (although kids love them too!). Each meal kit is packed with single servings of an assortment of foods that even epicurean foodies will enjoy. Yup, these meals offer gluten-free, vegan or food allergic folks a scrumptious quick and easy lunch or snack.

I always have a few Go Picnic meals kits on hand in my desk drawer, glove compartment, and laptop bag. Because you never know when you’ll need a quick & easy meal in a jiff.

A total of four (4) BeFreeForMe members will be selected to win a prize pack of two (2) GoPicnic meals. Two winners will be randomly selected from the entries received before Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 11:59 PM EST, and two more winners will be randomly selected to win from the entries received between Wednesday, February 13 and Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 11:59 PM. SO – make sure you enter two times to win!

Today we have a reason to celebrate! Why, you ask, is this mid-winter hump-day a reason to kick-up our heels and celebrate? Well…  National Peanut Butter Day!

No matter how you like it… chunky, creamy, smeared on gluten-free bread, as a dip with fresh veggies, or eaten right out of the jar… Peanut Butter deserves it’s own day. =) And today, my friends, is that day!

And in honor of this fabulous event, this week’s Win-It-Wednesday on BeFreeForMe’s is sponsored once again by one of my all-time favorite bars …. KIND Bars.

Besides celebrating peanut butter being heart healthy, full of protein and high in Potassium, we can also celebrate the family of peanut butter based products offered by Kind Bars; which include…

Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate & Protein Bars: A healthy & satisfying blend of peanuts and antioxidant-rich dark chocolate (Can you say YUM?!)  Each bar contains 7 grams of protein.

Peanut Butter & Strawberry Bars: The best of a PB&J Sandwich… blended right into a bar! This protein packed bar is a blend of rich peanuts and fresh strawberries.

Peanut Butter Whole Grain Clusters: “Grab-it-by-the-handful” granola-like clusters that’s a protein packed blend of peanuts and whole grains amaranth, quinoa, oats, millet and buckwheat. These delicious clusters provide 5g of protein per serving and are a tasty way to get 16g of whole grains.

As always, KIND bars and clusters are gluten-free, kosher, and are perfect for a  mid-day snack, or a breakfast on the run. Worried about nutrition? All KIND Bars offer the essential nutrients often lacking in gluten free diets including fiber, protein, magnesium and vitamin B12.

So today is a reason to celebrate the humblest of all spreads: Peanut Butter. A sometime overlooked, but healthy and much loved staple in today’s world. I am so thrilled that KIND is this week’s Win-It-Wednesday sponsor on BeFreeForMe.com.

A total of two (2) BeFreeForMe members will be selected to win a prize exclusive for this contest on BeFreeForMe. This prize is packed with four (yes… 4!) bars of EACH of the two KIND Peanut Butter flavors – Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate & Protein, and Peanut Butter & Strawberry – for a total of 8 KIND Bars, PLUS two (2) bags of the Peanut Butter Whole Grain Clusters. One winner will be randomly selected from the entries received before Tuesday, January 29, 2013 at 11:59 PM EST, and one more winner will be randomly selected to win from the entries received between Wednesday, January 30 and Tuesday, February 5, 2013 at 11:59 PM.

One of my favorite dishes at my local Thai restaurant is a nice simmering gluten-free pot of fresh broth, veggies, chicken and rice noodles. Going out to eat and getting this favorite dish has been a real treat for me because it is one dish that I have no idea how to even start to duplicate at home.

But now things have changed.

Thanks to Pacific Natural Foods and their line of  Soup Starters – including Vietnamese-style Pho, Tortilla, and Thai Tom Yum –  I’ve been able to create an even better version of my Thai restaurant favorite… right in my very own kitchen.

I love that Pacific Natural Foods has created Soup Starters…  a quick and easy short-cut to once mysterious dishes. No searching for hard-to-find ethnic ingredients and no simmering on the stove for hours. These organic, gluten-free and non-GMO Soup Starters do all the leg work for you – and get you started in creating fast and easy restaurant favorites from scratch.

Today for lunch I created my very own customized Tom Yum Soup for one. It took just 20 minutes to make from start to finish. Pacific Soup Starters also have a resealable container that allows you to use just the amount needed and refrigerate the rest for another meal. No waste. No fuss.

I customized this sweet and spicy soup full of ingredients I love: Grilled chicken cooked up in some Sweet Red Chili Sauce, Vermicelli Rice Noodles, water chestnuts, pea pods and bell peppers – all simmered in the Tom Yum soup base and topped with chopped cilantro and green onions. I t was yummy… AND low-calorie!  For the recipe click here.

By now you all can tell how excited I am that Pacific Natural Foods is this WIN-It-Wednesday’s sponsor! =)

A total of four (4) BeFreeForMe members will be selected to win a prize pack that includes one of each of the three varieties of the Soup Starters: Tom Yum, Tortilla, and Pho. Two winner will be randomly selected from the entries received before Tuesday, January 15, 2013 at 11:59 PM EST, and two more winners will be randomly selected to win from the entries received between Wednesday, January 16 and Tuesday, January 22, 2013 at 11:59 PM.

Now that the New Year is suddenly approaching we’re all putting on our thinking caps to decide what this year’s New Year’s Resolutions will be.

And, if you’re like most of us, one of your resolutions will probably involve eating better, including making better choices when it comes to snacking.

This is why it is so very fitting that the sponsor of this Win-It-Wednesday contest on BeFreeForMe.com is Way Better Snacks.

Way Better Snacks are perfect for dipping, snacking and even using as a breading for chicken and fish. They are also perfect for making that crunchy topping on gluten-free mac and cheese. My favorite flavor is the Simply So Sweet Chili, but other yummy flavors include Simply Sunny Multigrain, Simply Unbeatable Blues,  No-Salt Naked Blues, Simply So Sweet Potato, and Simply Beyond Black Bean.

Unlike many others, Way Better chips contain the simplest of ingredients – ingredients like chia seeds, flax seeds, quinoa, broccoli seeds and daikon radish seeds – many of which are sprouted, which means they provided increased vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.

Way Better chips are also certified gluten-free, all natural, vegan and are low sodium. They also are an excellent source of fiber and whole grains (each serving packs at least 17 grams of whole grains!).

A total of four (4) BeFreeForMe members will be selected to win a prize-pack of a mixed case of 24 single-serve Way Better Chips. Two winners will be randomly selected from the entries received before Tuesday, January 1, 2013 at 11:59 PM EST, and two more winners will be randomly selected to win from the entries received between Wednesday, January 2 and Tuesday, January 8, 2013 at 11:59PM. SO – make sure you enter to win two times!

The Holidays and party-time have arrived… Send out those party invitations! Take out the fine china! Set-up those buffet tables!

And, most importantly, get to the planning of the menu fare.

But what is a gal to do that needs help with planning a gluten-free gathering? Answer: Start a social media campaign that seeks tips, advice and recipes to guarantee a successful gluten-free gathering.

Which is exactly what Erica, the Marketing Coordinator over at Sol Cuisine decided to do… What a smart cookie!

This brave girl set out to host a gluten-free holiday party for her friends and family- a “DNBYOB” (Don’t Bring Your Own Bread) party as she is calling it. And she is beckoning all of us with gluten-free insight to help her out!

And in gratitude all peeps that contribute a gluten-free recipe, or gluten-free hostessing tip will be thanked with a Sol Cuisine Coupon! Yah-yah… This week we ALL can be WIN-It-Wednesday winners!

How can you share your recipe or tip with Erica? Easy! Here’s how:

1.)    Go to Sol Cuisine’s Facebook page.
2.)    Like Sol Cuisine.
3.)    Click the Erica’s Gluten-Free Gathering icon (an example of what you’ll be looking for is to the left)

However…
As a BONUS, Erica and the gang over at Sol Cuisine are ALSO sponsoring this week’s WIN-It-Wednesday on BeFreeForMe! I love the Sol Cuisine products (that include veggie burgers, veggie dogs, falafel, tofu and veggie crumbles) since they are gluten-free, vegan, non-GMO and organic. Can I tell you how flipping excited I was when I discovered Sol Cuisines gluten-free veggie burgers?! Most veggie burgers are packed with wheat… but NOT Sol Cuisines!

The Sol Cuisine products also make fantastic ingredients for vegan and gluten-free holiday buffet dishes. Including: Italian-Style Stuffed Peppers, Grilled Lemon-Rosemary Tofu and Organic BBQ Tofu Ribs with Peach Salsa.

A total of four (4) BeFreeForMe members will be selected to win a prize-pack of FIVE (5) FREE product coupons.

With the Holidays here we’re all thinking about baking up a storm. Cookies, cakes, pies and loaves – but since they need to be made gluten-free…alternative flours need to be discovered and explored.

If you’re looking for a gluten-free flour that is higher in protein, fiber and rich in micronutrients (including iron, calcium, magnesium and B Vitamins) than most any other gluten-free flour, look no further than Best Kitchen Pulse Flours. And if you’re like me, any way that I can incorporate healthier alternatives into my life the better!

Other bonuses are that Best pulses are natural, non-GMO, certified-organic and kosher.

I was unfamiliar with pulse flours until Shelley Case introduced them to me a few years back. Shelley explained to me that pulses (also known as legumes) include all types of dried peas & beans, lentils and chickpeas. Frequently overlooked in the gluten-free diet, pulses are one of the most nutritious and versatile foods. They are high in fiber, protein, B vitamins (especially folate), and a variety of minerals-plus they are low in fat, sodium and have a low-glycemic index.

Pulse Flours are simply pulses ground up into flour. I like that Best Kitchen’s offers Whole Chickpea and Whole Pea Flours – not split, like so many others. The benefit of Whole Flours is that they include the “seed coat”, or the outer husk of the pulses, which contain 90% of the fiber and are loaded with antioxidants. Another bonus: Baking with Whole Flours also gives baked goods more “body” than Split Flours.

All these healthy and flavorful reasons are why I am so glad that Best Kitchen Pulses are this week’s WIN-It-Wednesday sponsor on BeFreeForMe.com. Best Kitchen Pulses will provide four (Yes….4!) LUCKY BeFreeForMe members a gift pack of gluten-free flours and fibers, just in time for holiday baking! The gift pack includes:

~ Best Cooking Pulses Apron
~ Best Whole Yellow Pea Flour (1kg)
~ Best Chickpea Flour (1kg)
~ Best Green Split Pea Flour (1kg)
~ Best Pea Fiber (1kg)
~ Naked Yumpeez – roasted split peas shaker (I love to snack on these… or include in baking as a nut substitute, or as a salad topper)

How can you WIN?
Easy!

Reply to this blog and tell us how you incorporate healthy ways into your life (Me? I try to take a nice brisk walk at lunchtime… gets me some exercise, and reduces stress levels!). Four (4) winners will be randomly chosen from entries received before Tuesday, December 4, 2012 at 12:00 midnight EST; and two (2) more winners will be randomly chosen from entries received between Wednesday, December 5 and Tuesday, December 11, 2012 at 12:00 midnight EST.

If you’re looking for a nutritious, delicious and chocolate-y gluten-free bar that will fill you up –  look no further my friends. The Luna Protein Bar is it.

Unlike many other gluten-free bars, the Luna Protein Bar, is a great snack that is packed with 12 grams of protein which helps curb your appetite and helps you stay full… for longer.

That is why these bars are perfect for a quick snack on the go, or to rid yourself of a rumbling & hungry belly in-between meals. I also love to grab a Luna Protein Bar before I hit the gym – to give me the energy and sustainability to get me through my workout.

Another bonus is the fantastic chocolate flavors that these bars come in, including my favorites Cookie Dough and Mint Chocolate Chip. They also have additional flavors of: Chocolate Peanut Butter, Chocolate, and Chocolate Cherry Almond.

I also love that the Luna Protein Bars contain no GMO’s, no additives and are low GI. Luna Protein Bars are also perfect stocking stuffers – the perfect gift to give all the gluten-free folks in your life.

Under 200 calories per bar, packed with protein and gluten-free are all the reasons I am so excited that Luna Protein Bar’s are this week’s Win-It-Wednesday sponsor on BeFreeForMe.com!

A total of four (4) BeFreeForMe members will be selected to win a prize pack that includes a block (12 bars… Yes! Twelve Bars!) of the Luna Protein Bar flavor of their choice. Two winner will be randomly selected from the entries received before Tuesday, November 20, 2012  at 11:59 PM EST, and two more winners will be randomly selected to win from the entries received between Wednesday, November 21 and Tuesday, November 27 at 11:59 PM.

Note to Twitter Fans:
Just in time for the Holiday’s Luna Bars is sponsoring a Holiday themed Twitterview with gluten free expert and cookbook author Silvana Nardone that is taking place this Thursday, November 15th at 10:30 a.m. PT/1:30 p.m. ET.

In this Twitterview, Silvana and LUNA will share holiday tips and recipes to make sure that everyone has a happy and healthy holiday season as well as take questions from the audience. You can participate and take part in the conversation by tagging tweets with the hashtag #GFHoliday and following @LUNABar and @SilvanaNardone on Twitter.

Halloween is here! And to me Halloween is the “official” start of the Holiday Season… my favorite season of the year! I love the holidays since they are full of comfort foods, good memories and family get-togethers.

But sometimes those comfort foods end up not being very healthy and are full of things like corn syrup, additives, preservatives and artificial sweeteners. It’s funny how being gluten or allergen-free awakens you to the ingredient labels of the products that you eat. Since becoming gluten-free I found that I really scrutinize and question every ingredient on the label… not just the ones that contain gluten.

That is why I am a fan of Pacific Natural Food products. I love that they use wholesome, all-natural and organic ingredients. Plus they make it easy for those with food allergies or Celiac disease to easily understand and read their product’s labels. They also have an easy to read chart on their website that lists each of their products allergens. No guessing. No searching. Just simple basic info right at your computer keyboard or Smartphones fingertips.

Pacific Natural Foods makes two varieties of Cranberry Sauce – a jellied and a whole berry – both Thanksgiving holiday favorites.

One of the biggest difference between Pacific Natural Foods Cranberry Sauces and other brands is that there is NO HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP in the Pacific Natural Brand Cranberry Sauces. The only ingredients in Pacific Naturals Cranberry Sauces are: Organic cranberries, organic cane sugar and water. That’s it.

Pure and simple goodness.

I also like that Pacific Natural Cranberry Sauces come in BPA-free packaging and no can opener is required to open and enjoy.

Buh-bye ridged-tin-can-shaped jelly cranberry sauce! It’s been nice knowing ya… but I’ve found a new saucy holiday favorite. =)

And lucky for all of us at BeFreeForMe and just in time for Thanksgiving, this week’s WIN-It-Wednesday is sponsored by Pacific Natural Foods.

A total of four (4) BeFreeForMe members will be selected to win a prize pack that includes one of each of the Jellied and the Whole Cranberry Sauce. Two winner will be randomly selected from the entries received before Tuesday, November 6, 2012  at 11:59 PM EST, and two more winners will be randomly selected to win from the entries received between Wednesday, November 7 and Tuesday, November 13 at 11:59 PM.

This week’s sponsor for the Win-It-Wednesday on BeFreeForMe.com is a new tasty and nutritious gluten-free cereal that has made it’s way into a Whole Food’s Market near you…Erewhon’s Buckwheat & Hemp Cereal.

First off, let me clarify one common misconception about buckwheat: Despite it’s name buckwheat IS free of gluten! Plus, Erewhon Buckwheat & Hemp cereal is not only gluten-free, but also free of nuts, dairy and eggs.

Erewhon, which was founded in 1966, has been making gluten-free cereal for years. They’re philosophy is “Simple Ingredients. Simply Made” and their newest addition to their gluten-free cereal line-up also holds true to that philosophy as well. I love the crunchy simplicity of this cereal. When I toss in a handful of raisins, I think it taste just like a healthy version of Raisin Bran. Which is awesome since Raisin Bran was once one of my favorite cereals.

Buckwheat and hemp are both nutrient dense ingredients – so enjoying a bowl of this cereal with milk, using it as a mix-in with yogurt, or even using it as a crunchy-fried-chicken-like coating on chicken (or even fish) are all fabulous ways to get the 5 grams of fiber, 6 grams of protein and 42 grams of whole grains that each serving of this cereal delivers.

I also like that this cereal is non-GMO project verified, something that is important to me, and has been in the spotlight recently. All of the Erewhon’s gluten-free cereals are also certified by GIG (Gluten Intolerance Group).

In other words, I can feel healthy and good about eating this cereal.

All these simple, healthy and tasty reasons are why I am so happy to have Erewhon Buckwheat & Hemp cereal sponsor the next two week’s WIN-It-Wednesdays on BeFreeForMe.com.

How can you win?
