Low Carb Freedom

Dreamfield's Low Carb Pasta on Sale!

Folks, I haven't seen this price in a while because we don't have Super Wal-marts around here. Dreamfield's Pasta only $1.99 a box at netrition.com, good through next Thursday, January 21.

I buy this for the whole family. This way my kids can still have their favorite mac and cheese, but with fewer carbs!

Dreamfield's Low Carb Pasta at BJ's and online: Carbmazing?

Yes, an astute reader, Dave Goldblatt, spotted Dreamfield's Pasta at his local BJ's. I just went there and they do indeed carry the penne and the elbow, two boxes of each, for $6.99. Now, if they would just start carrying the linguine and the spaghetti!

Please note that BJ's is not included on the Where to Buy Dreamfield's Pasta page on the Dreamfield website, so they aren't updating that as much as they should be.

I have received more emails asking me about specific locations, and I can only tell folks what is on the website and what other readers tell me. (Thanks, Dave!)

However, you can also buy Dreamfield's pasta from netrition.com (Their price of $2.49 is cheaper than the price at my local market. If you make an order, order the Keto jelly as well! It is far better than anything else you will buy at your local store.)

I have a complete review of Dreamfield's Pasta and a discussion about "digestible carbs".

Netrition Deals

Netrition always has a deal of the week. Too much of the time it doesn't deal with low carb, but this week it does! They have Low Carb Creations Gourmet Cookies on sale for $2.95 a box until Thursday, March 11. This is the lowest price I have seen on these cookies! So, if you are going to put in a netrition order, do so now! (I love the Snickerdoodles and the Coconut. My kids love these too!)

Other new products that they have that I am interested in trying include:

Fiberfit: Liquid Sweetened Soluble Fiber Not sure exactly what I would use this for, but sounds interesting. Any ideas?

Betafood's Chips Cheese Thins

Betafoods Chip's Chips Snackers

CarbSense MiniCarb Soy Thin Crackers

The only product I have tried on this list is the Low Carb Creations cookies. If you try any of these products, please let me know if you liked them. And don't forget my regular netrition shopping list which includes the best low carb wraps (keep in the fridge) or just go browse yourself!

And here is more background on Netrition.

About Netrition.com

I have used Netrition.com consistently over the past year. They have always delivered great service. I order before 1 p.m. on a weekday and the package is delivered by 5 p.m. the next day -- all this for $4.95. (You might have a longer wait the further you are from New York state.) If you order over $75 of merchandise, you can get a free gift. My husband loves exercising in their T-shirts. Netrition is focused on what they do.

When I was giving a talk for my church last January, I asked Netrition to send me a price list so I could hand it out, and I asked Atkins to send me a price list for the same reason. Netrition got it to me the next day. Atkins got it to me two months later. The churchgoers got the netrition catalogs circled with the best products. I recommended the Atkins site to learn more about the diet. (And I can't blame Atkins. They didn't know me at all. I'm sure they tried to get rid of their overstock of the last catalog and that is why it was so late. I bet their whole organization was focused on bringing the Atkins products to consumers via the grocery stores and not online delivery.)

Netrition	update on 6/15/05
General	Netrition ships fast and has the lowest prices on the web that I have found.
La Tortilla Factory Tortillas	These are the best tortillas to bring to work. They taste just like regular tortillas, but they are loaded with fiber and only have 3 grams of net carbs.
Low Carb Jam Steel’s Keto	My son loves peanut butter and jelly, but the regular jams are loaded with sugar, and I don’t want to give him jam with NutraSweet. This lets him get what he wants. I have used these jams to make cakes as well. However, my kids and I both prefer the Keto to the Steel’s. (Get it while you can! Keto has gone out of business.)
Da Vinci Gourmet Sugar Free Syrups	These are great for flavoring coffee, whipped cream, or putting on low carb pancakes (the pancake flavor.) I'm experimenting with using these syrups with slushes for the kids. You can sometimes pick these up for slightly cheaper at Marshalls or TJ Maxx, but they don’t have the selection and make sure you get the sugar free versus the sugar filled.
Dreamfield's Pasta	This is available at some local supermarket chains. It is no longer available at BJ's or Walmart. Read this for a review.
Baja Bob’s Low Carb Drink Mixes	I have only tried a few of these, and the desert lime was my favorite. The other types were too sweet. Your mileage may differ. However, I am trying the new martini mixes now for summer drinks and slushes. I'll let you know the outcome.
Blanched Almond Flour Unblanched Almond Flour	I use the blanched flour to make great pie crusts. Just mix with butter and Splenda, spread it in the pie plate with your fingers, and cook in the oven for 6 or 7 minutes at 350 or until the edges turn slightly brown. I also use the unblanched to coat boneless chicken breasts before frying. I have tried to make this from raw almonds with my Cuisinart, but it just doesn’t come out the same.
Andres Crackers	If you don't have a Trader Joes around where you can still get low carb tortilla chips to use in place of crackers, this is your best bet.
CarbSense Products Brownies and Cookies Pancake Mix Pie Crust	The brownie mix really grew on me. I really didn't like the snickerdoodle cookie mix. I loved the pancake mix, but my kids are wedded to Bisquick. (Start the high fiber pancakes young!!!)  The pie crust is OK, but my family prefers the homemade almond crust.
Expert Foods Cake-ability ThickenThin not Starch ThickenThin not Cereal Thicken Thin not Sugar	I have used the cake-ability product to make a good cake with almond flour. I use just a teaspoon of the Thicken Thin not starch to make gravies. Don’t coat meat with this! If you use too much, it subdues the flavor. I have used the ThickenThin not Cereal to make tapioca pudding. It was pretty good. Go to the Expert foods website for some great recipes.
Low Carb Success Sweet Nut’ns	If you don’t want to make your candied nuts, buy them. They are delicious! Great for a low carb gift basket.
Just the Cheese Snacks	These snacks are crunchy and they are just made from cheese. I thought some of them were too salty, but my sister-in-law really likes them.
Black Soy Beans	I've been looking everywhere for these. They are very low carb and high fiber. I want to try them in my chili.
Erythritol Granular Powder	For more, read this.
Steel’s Sauces	I like the sweet and sour sauce with kielbasa. You grill up the kielbasa and then put on the sauce. I like the spicy peanut sauce used with stir fry chicken.
CarbQuick	Haven't tried this yet, but we'll see...
Steel's Desert Sauces	These are not loaded with maltitol! And they have inulin! More here.
