Gluten-free Giveaway and Review: Beanitos Chips!

Beanitos is sponsoring this wonderful gluten-free giveaway!  Beanitos gluten-free chips are wonderful, too! If you have digestive issues there is no concern because Beanitos figured out a way of avoiding the normal gas one may get from consuming the beans in their chips. They do, however, warn us not to overeat them, as they do contain quite a bit of fiber, which can cause GI trouble.

[showmyads]They come in four flavors: Cheddar, Chipotle Barbecue, Pinto Bean and Flax, and Black Bean. They are all gluten-free, corn-free, high fiber, and contain 2 1/2 times the protein compared to corn or potato chips. In addition, their protein is a “complete protein” meaning it supplies your body with essential amino acids.

All Beanitos chips are gluten-free, wheat-free, soy-free and GMO-free. They contain over 600mg essential omega 3, certified low glycemic, high fiber, 4 grams complete protein, trans fat-free, cholesterol-free and kosher.

Allergy Information: Made in a facility that may also use soy, dairy, seeds, wheat, corn and tree nut.

Beanitos Pinto Bean and Flax Chips – Cheddar Cheese

These are my all-time favorites! They are not overly seasoned compared to other cheese flavored chips; and they have that flax nutty flavor! Since they contain tomato powder, and I am allergic to tomatoes, I cannot eat them often, but if I could, they would my first my first choice!
