Heartland Gluten Free Pasta

I found a new gluten free pasta at Walmart over the weekend and have tried it twice. It is absolutely delicious. It is called Heartland Gluten Free. It is a corn and rice blend and tastes exactly like regular pasta. My DH tasted it and even proclaimed he could not tell the difference. He is not on a gluten free diet.

The 12 oz package is 2.00. At our local Walmart in Murphy Texas they had 2 different pasta styles. Spaghetti and Fusilli. I bought the Fusilli. For the first meal I made spaghetti sauce with gluten-free Prego traditional sauce, and some spices. My DH used Skinner spaghetti and I used half the bag of Heatland. It was perfect. The pasta did take a little longer to cook than is indicated on the package. I'm a child of the 50s and grew up with soft pasta. The sauce nestled in all the little grooves and tasted great.

The next time I used it, I sauteed some sliced mushrooms in dairy free margarine and tossed them into the pasta with some steamed shrimp and a splash of gluten-free sweet chili sauce. Yummy!

This is the best pasta I have tasted. I was buying the Ancient Harvest quinoa pasta and this is so much better. The color, the taste, the "bite", the after flavor - everything is great.

I did try to locate this pasta at Sprouts, Albertsons, Tom Thumb, Target but it is only being sold at Walmart for now. At 2.00 a package it is the best deal around.

That's my favorite gluten-free pasta too. The only thing I don't like about it is how fast it gets cold.

Our Walmart keeps it in the regular pasta section

I've also bought it and like it. My Wal-Mart has 3 different kinds available...in addition to spaghetti and fusilli, they also have penne.

Does anyone have a problem with this particular spaghetti sticking together while it's cooking? I used to cook regular spaghetti with no problems but I seem to spend a lot of time separating Heartland spaghetti while I'm cooking it.

Thanks for the reviews. I haven't tried this kind yet but I have seen it for 1.98 at Walmart. My Walmart doesn't have a gluten-free section, everything is just mixed in with the regular stuff.

      Celiac or not?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Thank you for the update.  So interesting to know how things are changing, when I was diagnosed I had very similar blood results but still had to have the endoscopy.  Glad you know where you stand.  As your father has celiac disease you probably already know a lot about it, but do contact us if we can help further.

      But isn't it easier to just take a D3 supplement? Is the D light somehow a superior source? Links?

      So the way it should be used is to take it before possible gluten exposure, so right before a meal at a restaurant take 1-2 capsules. Unfortunately taking it 1 hour or more after an exposure is too late.

      Do I really need to get a biopsy?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, and thank you for sharing your detailed experience. It sounds like you’ve been through a lot over the past several months, and it’s understandable to feel frustrated after navigating unclear diagnoses and conflicting advice. Since you’ve found relief with a gluten- and corn-free diet, it might be worth continuing that approach for now, especially given your current commitments to culinary classes. You could consider working with a knowledgeable dietitian or a gastroenterologist who specializes in food intolerances and celiac disease to explore potential intolerances or other conditions without immediately reintroducing gluten. If confirming celiac disease is important for your long-term health management, you could plan for an endoscopy during a less busy period, ensuring you follow the gluten challenge protocol beforehand. In the meantime, prioritizing your well-being and avoiding known triggers seems like a practical step. Always advocate for yourself with doctors, and seek second opinions if needed—your health concerns are valid. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
