MFTH has a great selection of gluten-free products ranging from baking mixes to soups to puddings.  Here is some information from their website:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Allergen Facts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, oats, barley, rye, and wheat in the plant.<br \/>\nNo bean flours are used in any products.<br \/>\nPlant is allergen controlled.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Eliza Testing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Every raw product that enters our plant must be certified by the producer it will pass an Eliza Test.<br \/>\nThis means products in our plant test three parts per million or less for wheat.<br \/>\nThe University of Nebraska does our Eliza Testing.<br \/>\nAll reports are sent to the Celiac Sprue Association (CSA).<br \/>\nMixes From The Heartland Inc is CSA certified and we are very proud that all our products carry the CSA seal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Product Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Our products are all natural with no preservatives.<br \/>\nBeans and fruit are all freeze dried and contain no preservatives.<br \/>\nSoups and meals are quick and easy to prepare.<br \/>\nAll mixes are family size and serve 4 to 6 people.<br \/>\nSoups make 6 to 8 cups on average.<br \/>\nPound cakes make 2 1lb loaves or a 9\u201d x 13\u201d pan.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I received the following mixes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Blueberry Muffins<\/li>\n<li>Sweet Potato Brownies<\/li>\n<li>Cinnamon Apple Coffee Bars<\/li>\n<li>Zucchini Muffins<\/li>\n<li>Cajun Pastalaya Soup Mix<\/li>\n<li>Cheeseburger Chowder Soup Mix<\/li>\n<li>Potato Soup Mix<\/li>\n<li>Tortilla Pasta Soup<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I passed the soup mixes along to Aaron&#8217;s gluten-free friends at work to sample because they all contained onions (taboo for me).  Here is what Lindsey had to say about the soup:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>OMG that Cajun pasta soup was soooo good! I&#8217;m so impressed with how easy it was to make (I did it all by myself lol) and it has so much flavor. I put chicken with it. I&#8217;m definitely going to order from them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Blueberry Muffins were very easy to mix up &amp; bake.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glutenfreeislife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/019.jpg\" alt=\"019\" width=\"426\" height=\"281\" \/><\/p>\n<p>These were awesome!  Jon made 2 of these his breakfast each day until they were gone.  They had a great texture &amp; flavor.  Can&#8217;t beat these &#8211; easy &amp; taste great!<\/p>\n<p>Next on my list?  Sweet Potato Brownies.  I was not sure what to think of these when mixing them up, but man, oh man, they were spectacular!  I fed them to the kids (called them &#8220;blondies&#8221; or they would have not touched them).  They both said they were great!  I loved the spices in this mix!  Try topping them with cream cheese!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 426px; height: 277px;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glutenfreeislife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/0021.jpg\" alt=\"002\" width=\"402\" height=\"277\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can purchase mixes from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shareasale.com\/r.cfm?B=203349&amp;U=364015&amp;M=24972\">Mixes from the Heartland<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p>Please check my latest <a href=\"http:\/\/www.examiner.com\/x-15655-Columbus-GlutenFree-Food-Examiner~y2010m1d26-Recall-Glutenfree-sausage\">Examiner article<\/a> for a very important recall.<\/p>\n<p>I just posted my <a href=\"http:\/\/celiac-disease.com\/packing-a-gluten-free-lunch-for-school\/\">latest article<\/a> on Celiac-Disease.com, too.<\/p>\n<div class=\"linkwithin_hook\" id=\"https:\/\/www.glutenfreeislife.com\/?p=2335\"><\/div>\n<script><!-- \/\/LinkWithinCodeStart\nvar linkwithin_div_class=\"linkwithin_hook\";\nvar linkwithin_site_id = 135270;\n\/\/LinkWithinCodeEnd -->\n<\/script>\n<script src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/widget.js\"><\/script>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/pixel.png\" alt=\"Related Posts with Thumbnails\" style=\"border: 0\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I received some complimentary samples from Mixes from the Heartland a few weeks back.
