Gluten-free products

Pillsbury has a delicious new trio of gluten-free dough products out this month: pie and pastry dough, thin crust pizza dough, and chocolate chip cookie dough. They can be found in little tubs in the refrigerator aisle, ranging from $4.49–$4.99. Although some gluten-free products can be dry and tasteless, you will not even realize you are eating gluten free with these products. The pizza and pastry dough are great, but the cookies? To die for!
