The Gluten Free & Allergen Friendly Expo (GFAFExpo) is always a treat for me. This is my 3rd year as an official blogger for the expo and it just keeps getting better and better. I was also super excited to have my Mom fly up and join me! (She’s a food blogger over at 2CookinMamas.com) HUGE thanks to the Blogger sponsor @BFreeFoods - you all are amazing and I’m in love with the new gluten-free dinner rolls!

The expo has educational classes, vendors and tons of food to sample for anyone that suffers from celiac or any food allergies or intolerances plus autism, auto-immune and inflammatory diseases. Visit gfafexpo.com to learn more.

I’m gluten-intolerant so it’s always fun for me to go and see what new companies and products have hit the market. This year I found 3 that I am so excited to share with you. So let’s get started! In no particular order:

#1 - FUEL FOR FIRE - These smoothie packs instantly caught my attention because they look like the healthy fruit & veggie packs I give my toddler. But upon closer inspection I saw amazing flavors such as Coffee, Sweet Potato Apple and Banana Cocoa and I had to learn more.

These packets are a delicious blend of protein and fruit and contain all 9 essential amino acids and anywhere between 10-12 grams of protein per serving. They’re gluten-free, do not have any added sugars and all contain nothing artificial.

I like them best cold and they make the perfect grab-and-go snack after a killer workout. Use Code: FUELME15 for 15% off your Amazon.com purchase!

#2 - BIENA CHICKPEA SNACKS - If you love chickpeas, you’re going to flip over these crunchy fun protein-packed snacks. These are just so fun to eat. The flavors are amazing and with 6 grams of protein and 7 grams of fiber you can’t go wrong. My favorite flavor is the honey roasted, they taste amazing and have 75% less fat than dry roasted peanuts! Oh and of course they are gluten-free, non-GMO and vegan!

#3 - NORIGAMI GLUTEN-FREE CHIA SEED PEA WRAPS - These wraps were so cool! I especially loved the chia-seed wrap…it was paper-thin, but didn’t break apart and they’re made with non-GMO ingredients. These vegetarian wraps are a great alternative to breads and wraps and they come in other gluten-free varieties such as Sesame Seed (soy or pea), Poppy Seed, and Chili soy wraps.

 

 

#4 BONUS (Non-Food Top Find) - AFFORDABLE ALLERGY TESTING - Ever since I found out I was gluten-intolerant I am a very big fan of checking my intolerances on a yearly basis. I’m super grateful to have found this company because they offer home tests that don’t include a blood sample, instead they use hair samples! If you are looking to learn more about your body, check this company out here. They test for food and non-food intolerances, metal toxicity and nutritional deficiencies for both you AND your pet!

There were so many great vendors this year and just seeing all the new products gives me so much hope and excitement for the years to come! To see if the GFAFExpo is coming to your town click here.
