GF products in very unlikely places - Winners :)


The awareness about gluten intolerance and Celiac's disease is increasing and the GF products shelf in department stores are getting bigger and bigger i.e. Safeway, Walmart and Superstore. I am still discovering bakeries and speciality stores that carry gluten free products in Winnipeg. I hope to find more and more.
Winners' usually carries gourmet high-end condiments, cookies and sauces. Today I found more than five gluten free snacks that included, GF cinnamon roll's batter, GF lemon biscotti and chocolate biscotti, GF lentil cracker,GF qinuoa cookies and GF ginger snaps. These products are different from what I have seen in stores. Hence more variety for us snack eaters.
Here it is, my lucky find. I hope you find some as well and let me know.

Note: I soak my dry lentils for minimum of 2 hours. Ingredients: 1.5 cups of Brown Dal then soak it 1/3 cup chopped red onions 1 tsp garlic/ginger paste 1 tsp cayenne powder 2 tsp of salt 0.5 tsp turmeric powder Tempering ingredients: 1/4 cup butter 1 tbsp cumin seeds 10 black peppercorns 3 garlic cloves Method: I used my instapot to cook the daal.

In  a different pot I added butter and ...
