Gluten Free Mac & Cheese
"Some years back, we carried a frozen Gluten Free Mac & Cheese in our stores. Made with rice flour pasta, white Cheddar, & Monterey Jack cheeses, it was a good, solid, gluten free alternative to standard Mac. Truly.
But as time went by, we realized that it could be even better. So, with our classic & wildly popular Diner Mac 'n Cheese as her inspiration, our Buyer set out to create the perfect Gluten Free Mac & Cheese once and for all-and the rest is history. Or, shall we say, cheesetory.
Unlike our previous, two-cheese incarnation, Trader Joe's Gluten Free Mac & Cheese is now made with the exact same four-cheese blend you'll find in our beloved Diner Mac-Cheddar, Swiss, Havarti, & Gouda, all made with milk from cows not treated with rBST. We also add milk & a house-made, gluten free bΓ©chamel to this four-cheese blend, which makes for a comforting creation that's extra thick & creamy.
And lest we miss the mac for the cheese (as they say), we've taken equally great care in selecting the perfect pasta: a corkscrew-shaped Rotini made with a blend of corn, rice, lentil, & quinoa flours. The end result? A toothsome, weighty Gluten Free Mac & Cheese that's just as delish as any of its wheat-pasta compatriots-think, "Wow, are you sure that's gluten free?!" not, "Wow, that sure is gluten free...""
