Last year I was very fortunate to be able to review El’s Kitchen’s gluten free snacks. Because this month’s theme for my giveaways are “The Gluten Free Things I Love”, I thought I would include El’s Kitchen. I fell in love with Medleys snack, however, I they only had the original flavor then. It is now available in Cheddar, and Sour Cream and Onion. They also make other gluten free products and snacks, and have included their beef and chicken rubs in the giveaway. I list below the ingredients for each, as well as the prizes. Good luck to all who enter the giveaway!

I would love to win Eli’s snacks since I’m always looking for something safe, spicy and with some salt since I usually don’t eat enough. These would help my appetite and be totally safe so I can be worry free it won’t hurt my stomach. Also heart healthy flaxseed is a bonus too.
Always looking for new foods and products to try! It’s harder now that I am yeast free too
Looking forward to trying these.

I’d love to win this contest because El’s Medleys are one of my new favorite gf finds! So good- cheddar is my fav!
I’d love to win this. The snacks sound good, but the rubs sound even better. I tend to get into a rut and always use the same old seasonings – it would be great to change things up a bit, especially once grilling season is here again.
