First, let me say, I love all things peppermint, and I love the holidays! I am one of those people that want to put my decorations up right now! When I feel a chill in the air, I am ready to snuggle up to Love Actually, and a mug of Mexican hot chocolate with a sprinkling of crushed peppermint on top.
I even bought extra candy canes last year, just so I could crush them in my food processor and enjoy "peppermint sugar" year round. So, when these babies arrived in the mail today from Glutino, I almost could not not contain myself. It took major self control to wait the hour I had, to pick my daughter up at school, so we could enjoy the first bite together.
Glutino yogurt covered pretzels are already one of my favorite snacks...add peppermint to them, and I will follow you anywhere. They were even better than I could have imagined, a total treat! You cannot eat just 1, or 20! My daughter loved them just as much, and I have had to put a couple away in the corner out of reach, just so my husband can try them when he gets home from work. But really, I am the one with celiac in my family, so I am allowed to inhale all of the gluten-free goodies that come my way, right?
So, because I am so enamored with this savory, sweet minty treat, I asked Glutino if I could give some away to a fellow gluten-free eater out there. To enter this giveaway of 2 bags of gluten-free Glutino Peppermint Yogurt Covered Pretzels please leave a comment below about your favorite holiday treat with your email (or how else will I be able to get these sent to you), and tweet about this giveaway on Twitter, with a link to this post.
I will draw a winner, at random, on Friday, November 22nd at 10pm.
Good luck, you will not be disappointed!
Monkey bread is the best "come down the stairs for Christmas morning" treat ever
ReplyDeleteIn the past I used Glutino pretzals, melted white chocolate & sprinkled with cracked peppermints to make a similar favorite. Now I can buy these & spend time making a new holiday treat :-)
ReplyDeleteI make oatmeal date bars every Christmas. They were a favorite of my grandpa's and we continue to make (and eat! ) them in his memory. Of course, now I use gf oats. (: cindym119@gmail.com
ReplyDelete*I don't know how to tweet! Hope I can still be considered for the contest.
Oh man, it's extremely hard to decide my favorite holiday treat. My mum is an excellent cook and when I had to go gluten-free she adapted quite well, so she provides many options to choose from in this department every year. However, I think if I DID have to choose one favorite...okay, okay, I can't pick one, but two. If I narrowed it down to two, it would be the gumdrop cookies and the Christmas Morning cinnamon rolls. All gluten-free, of course. So very delicious!

I just realized I am Gluten intolerant. I had always written off "Gluten Intolerance" as another trend. Then I read one of those top ten signs, and I had every single one of them! I am just beginning the process of fully understanding how to wrestle this beast, but here's to good beginnings!
ReplyDeleteMy *FAVORITE* holiday delicacy is Pumpkin Pie! :)
Our family tradition is coffee cake on Christmas morning. A family friend delivers it each year on Christmas Eve -- her recipe is secret and oh-so-good! This will be my first holiday season gluten free as i was diagnosed with celiac disease... our family friend is trying to come up with a gluten free coffee cake for me so the tradition can live on!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a kid, nothing beat holiday cookies. My Grandma was a professional caterer and she would make us an assortment each year. Now that I know that I have Celiac Disease, I eat gluten-free cookies, which cannot compare to my grandma's. So today my favorite treat would have to be pie made with a crust formed from crushed gluten-free cookies.
