For my gluten free friends out there, have you tried Cappello’s? I’d been seeing it pop up on PaleOMG’s Instagram for months and needed to get my hands on some of this amazing looking food. Cappello’s was nice enough to send me a package of products (thank you!!) and I’m happy to report it’s even better than I expected.
On my way home from a late meeting last week I was debating a quick stop at Chipotle but then I remembered I had Cappello’s in my freezer. Even though it was in the freezer, it still only takes 45 seconds to cook! As soon as I got home I took chicken sausage and heated it in a pan.
While that was cooking, I boiled a pot of water. As soon as the water came to a rolling boil, I dropped the pasta in and literally 45 seconds later it was done.
I took it out, ran it under cold water for a couple of seconds, added the sausage and topped with a little olive oil, salt and pepper.
This meal tasted too good to be true. In total, with the sausage cooking and waiting for the water to boil, it took about 8 minutes, that’s less time than it would have taken me to get to Chipotle and place my order.
Despite being gluten and grain free, this legit tastes like pasta. I gave MM a bite to confirm (just one bite because I wasn’t in a sharing mood) and he was equally amazed at how good it was.
Each package is two servings, I ate half and saved the other portion for lunch. Bonus feature- Cappello’s comes in a little plastic tupperware type packaging, don’t throw it out and use it to save any leftovers you might have.
To top off my meal, I gave the Cappello’s cooke dough a taste. I didn’t feel like baking (and raw cookie dough is way better) so I cut off a little piece and YUM. It tastes like the real thing. I’ll bake up the rest and let you know how they turn out but I can only assume it will taste just like a fresh baked chocolate chip cookie.
Cappello’s isn’t available everywhere (but soon hopefully!) but you can order it online. I’ll for sure be placing an order once I get through my sample pack; it’s a perfect healthy option when you’re craving a bowl of pasta.
