I started this blog in 2014 to help anyone who needs to eat gluten-free.  Please check out my family-friendly recipes and gluten-free desserts if you have time. I would also invite you to comment with the gluten-free Costco foods you find. There are tons of readers who have written and shared what they found in their own local Costco stores.

I am lucky to have three Costco stores in my area. We have two in San Jose and one in Santa Clara nearby. If you are looking for your local Costco, here is a store locator!

SCROLL DOWN for a PRINTABLE Costco Gluten-Free Food List!! Take it with you for easy gluten free shopping!

Usually, Costcos have the same foods, but every now and then things are a little different. Many of these finds are from the Coleman Costco in San Jose. It is just minutes from the San Jose Airport. I like this location best because it is never crazy busy like the other Costco stores. (Well, except over the holidays, then no Costco is easy!)

Gluten Free Costco 2017 (UPDATED 6/21/17)

The Ultimate Gluten-Free Costco Shopping List image

Gluten Free Costco

Groceries are expensive and gluten-free food tends to cost more than other grocery items. Our family loves to save money buying in bulk at Costco and fortunately, Costco has a great selection of gluten-free products for us to choose from.

Products will vary from store to store (even within the same city) and below are the gluten-free products available in our area that could be available in yours too.

If you spy something gluten-free at your Costco, please leave a comment and let us all know.

PRINT THIS HANDY SHOPPING LIST TO TAKE TO COSTCO WITH YOU! (Just click the link below!)

Costco-Gluten-Free-Shopping-List-2

(*NOTE: I just found out that Costco’s Rotisserie Chicken is gluten free. It says it on the package too!  So YAY!! There is NO gluten in Costco chicken (Rotisserie!) We had it last night with several gluten free friends and nobody reacted!! I will get it added to the shopping list soon so just pencil it in for now.)

Gluten Free Pastas

*I have some tips on preparing gluten-free pasta and recipes that you can read, here are more yummy Gluten-Free Pasta Recipes to try.

Gluten-Free Costco shelf with Rice Ramen soup mix

Rice Ramen. This is NEW at my Costco in San Jose, CA.  I love that there is a gluten free ramen option. Has anyone seen this in their local Costco yet? You can try my recipe for Gluten Free Ramen, there is even a video to show you how to make it.

Gluten-Free Costco with organic gluten free pasta

Go Go Quinoa Organic Macaroni Pasta…I didn’t buy this gluten free pasta. I am wondering if this gluten free quinoa pasta will stay a la dente. Has anyone tried this new gluten free Costco pasta?

Gluten-Free Costco organic edamame spaghetti

Edamame Spaghetti. I have a sample of this, but I have yet to try it. (Update, we finally tried this pasta. It is easy to over-cook this pasta so pull it out of the boiling water a little earlier than you would normally.)

Gluten-Free Costco Hodo Soy Spicy Yuba Noodles

Hodo Soy Spicy Yuba Noodles

Hodo Soy has become pretty popular here in the Bay Area. They are local and sell in some of the farmer’s markets. Their flavored refrigerated tofu meals are healthy and delicious! They were sampling the gluten free tofu entres in our store the last time I was there.

Gluten Free Snacks

There are lots of gluten free snacks on my blog that you can make at home. Let me know what you try :-).

Square Organic Protein Bars

Brand new at our Costco. Have you tried these Organic Protein Bars from Square Organics? Update, I tried these protein bars! They come in mint, coconut, peanut butter and chocolate. My whole family loved them. These Square Organics protein bars are perfect in a school lunch box!

Nogii Gluten Free Bars

Another new item this month! I did buy these protein bars and I really like them. They are the perfect pick me up in the afternoon. These protein bars are chocolate coated, and taste like a candy bar.

Gluten-Free Costco boxes of Figgy Pops

Another NEW product, Figgy Pops. These are little energy bites. Anyone try this gluten free product?

Gluten-Free Costco boxes of Pro Bar Fuel gluten free energy bars

ProBar Fuel. This is a paleo friendly sports bar. I picked up a bag to try on bike rides to see if it gives me a boost.

Gluten-Free Costco box of kid snacks by Made Good

The people that invented Made Good Granola Bites is just genius. This product has tons of hidden veggies inside, and they taste like granola cookies. Your kids will have no idea these are healthy!!

Gluten-Free Costco boxes of The Perfect Bar

The Perfect Bar. These are by far our family’s favorite gluten-free protein bars. (They have to be refrigerated because they have egg white protein.) They come in Peanut Butter, Almond Butter, and a fun Cranberry Rice Puffy Crisp. Still here in 2017!!

Gluten-Free Costco bags of Chex granola mix

Gluten Free Chex Granola Mix. Our Costco had this for a few months, then it was gone. It was fun to sprinkle in yogurt. This is no longer at our Costco as of February 2017. Is this gluten free granola at your Costco?

Gluten-Free Costco boxes of Two Mom's Blueberry Granola Bars

Two Moms in the Raw granola bars. Our Costco gets a few different products by Two Moms in the Raw…it seems to alternate what they have each month.

Gluten Free Cookies and Crackers

Click here to view my gluten-free cookie and gluten-free dessert bar recipes.

Cocola Macaroons

If you love a French Macaron, pick a box of these Cocola Macarons up. They are sooo good!

Gluten-free Costco boxes of Walker's Shortbread Cookies

Gluten-free Walker’s Shortbread

I love that Walkers Shortbread is now available in a gluten free option. These are delish!

Gluten-Free Costco bags of Cocoroons raw cookies

Certified Gluten Free Coco-Roons Cookies. These raw treats are healthy and delicious. My kids love the lemon flavor best.

Gluten-Free Costco boxes of Tate's gluten free cookies

Tate’s Gluten-Free Cookies. These are a great cookie. I also think Tate’s makes these under the Trader Joe’s label as well. Our Costco is sold out of these Tate’s Gluten-Free Cookies, but you CAN find these under Trader Joe’s private label.

Gluten-Free Costco bags of Nothin But Cookies in a box

Nothinbut Granola Cookies. These gluten free cookies look like they would be great for a school lunch box.

Gluten Free Prepared Meals

These prepared meals definitely save you time in the kitchen. If you have some time to cook, here are some awesome meal recipes, many of which are ready in under 30 minutes.

LOTS of new gluten free prepared meals at our Costco this month!!

Cooking Made Easy Thai Dinners

I bought this gluten free Thai Coconut Chicken Dinner, but we haven’t tried it yet. It looks really good so I will keep you posted how it tasted.

Chicken Skewers

These gluten free Chicken Skewers look really good for feeding a crowd.

DeeLite Black Bean Burgers

A new gluten free meatless burger. Very few vegan burgers are gluten free so I was excited to see this.

Atkins Lamb Shanks

Another new product…I was very tempted to pick a box of these up. Has anyone tried these yet?

Chicken Burrito Bowls

I bought these to try out. My teens loved them…I was a little less enthused.

Gluten-Free Costco packages of pupusas by Del Real Foods

I can’t believe these pupusas are gluten free. These are in my freezer and I will report back soon to let you know how they taste. (*Update, we really liked these pupusas. They are really handy to pack and take for lunch if you have access to a microwave!)

Gluten-Free Costco Cranberry Almond Chicken Salad by GoodFoods

Cranberry Almond Chicken Salad by GoodFoods

This cranberry almond chicken salad by GoodFoods looks healthy and delicious. A few readers commented below if you want to know if this is good. I have received so many reader comments about this gluten free chicken salad at Costco. Half of you like this, and half of you don’t. What do you think?

Gluten-Free Costco boxes of Hodo Soy Tofu Veggie Burgers

Hodo Soy Tofu Veggie Burgers

Hodo Soy also makes a gluten-free tofu burger. Most meatless burgers have wheat so these are a great option if you want to have a vegetarian option.

If you want an option that isn’t vegetarian, click here to try my Grilled Lamb with Leeks and Fennel recipe.

Gluten-Free Costco bags of tamales by Del Real

Del Real Foods made delicious tamales that are gluten free. This is worth picking up if you need quick meal options. Watch the sodium content though, I was surprised.

Organic Veggie Bites are a kid-friendly healthy snack. Has anyone tried these?

Gluten-Free Costco boxes of Del Real Carnitas

Another gluten free product from Del Real…Gluten Free Carnitas. These are perfect in tortillas.

Gluten-Free Costco containers of stuffed grape leaves

Stuffed Grape Leaves. I LOVE Mediterranean foods, has anyone tried these yet?

Costco Gluten Free Foods Sukhi's curry boxes

Sukhi’s Curry Meals. I haven’t tried these prepared meals, but we have tried several of their jarred Indian sauces by the same company. My kids prefer the mild flavors so I don’t buy the spicier sauces often. My Costco still carries these as of February 2017.

Sukhi’s is all gluten free, they were sampling their foods at our local Costco and I think I liked all of their meals.

Gluten-Free Costco boxes of organic broccoli cheddar stuffed chicken breasts

Stuffed Chicken by Vicky’s Kitchen. I haven’t tried this but it is certified gluten free. Fill in a comment below if you have tried these so other readers will know if these are worth purchasing! I didn’t see this one last week. Did you try it?

Gluten Free Meats

Costco has a huge assortment of raw meats that are gluten free, including a lot of organic gluten free chicken, beef, and pork. As they are raw and un-marinaded, they are all naturally gluten free.

Also, the Costco Rotisserie chickens are also gluten free!!

Gluten-Free Costco packages of spinach, garlic, and asiago sausage by Silva

Gluten-free spinach, garlic, and asiago sausage by Silva

Certified gluten free sausage by Silva. My son loved this gluten free chicken sausage. It is organic and makes an amazing easy lunch.

Gluten-Free Costco packages of Amylu natural chicken sausage

Sugarhouse Maple Chicken Sausage are so good for breakfast. Have you tried these gluten free sausages from Costco?

Gluten-Free Costco packages of Columbus roasted turkey deli meats

Columbus Deli Meats are also gluten free. (There are actually a lot of gluten free lunch meats at Costco.)

Gluten-Free Costco containers of Oscar Mayer natural turkey deli meat

Oscar Meyer is touting its gluten free turkey breast deli meat. This is good and my kids like to have this turkey sandwich meat in their lunchboxes. Still at Costco in February 2017.

Gluten-Free Costco Bags of Nature Raised Grilled Chicken Breast Strips in the frozen section

Nature Raised Grilled Gluten Free Chicken Strips. These are really good and I find they are perfect for dinner in a hurry by making chicken tacos out of them. I loved these but unfortunately, our Costco sold out of these quickly :-(.

Does anyone’s local Costco have these still? I so miss these convenient chicken strips!

Gluten Free Chips

Gluten-Free Costco bags of Rhythm Kale Chips

Rhythms Kale Chips in cool ranch. I tried these at the San Francisco Fancy Foods Show and really liked them. I could almost get my daughter to eat these :-). Still at Costco 2017.

Gluten-Free Costco bags of Calbee Spinach and Kale Tortilla Chips

Calbee Spinach and Kale Corn Chips. My kids wouldn’t touch this but it was really good dipped in hummus. These were not in our local Costco in February 2017.

Gluten Free DESSERTS

gluten free chocolate mousse

NEW! This chocolate mousse from Sweetaly was very tempting. Has anyone tried it yet?

Gluten-Free Costco boxes of Harry's Organic Tapioca Pudding

Harry’s Organic Tapioca Pudding

Harry’s Organic Tapioca Pudding is gluten free and makes a nice snack or dessert.

I am typically a sucker for tapioca pudding, but my family enjoys my Caramel Tapioca Pudding recipe store-bought, so there is no desire to buy this 🙂

Gluten-Free Costco Bags of Popcornopolis Kettle Corn

Popcornopolis Kettle Corn

I have tried several of Popcornopolis flavors, this Kettle Corn is definitely my favorite.

    I’m curious about maple syrup and organic cane sugar, vanilla and other kirkland brand one ingredient items. I have silent celiac so I wouldn’t know if I was getting glutened. Do you feel that these items are safe? Thank you

      I have to think they are okay, especially if they are organic. I think the company is highly responsive so perhaps calling to ask about their specific products would help get you the information you need. Take care, Sandi

        I think this is worth investigating. I just had a massive reaction to their new Kirkland vanilla. It does not say gluten free on the label and often the alcohol is made with grains.

          Update as of April 12, 2017- I contacted Costco directly and asked them about their vanilla extract and this is what they said, “Yes, the Kirkland Signature Vanilla Extract is gluten free. I will send a suggestion to add that to the label.”
          Great news!! Can’t wait until the price comes down on the stuff again, though 🙂

          Hi Nidal, it depends if their oatmeal is from a certified gluten free manufacturer. If their package doesn’t say certified gluten free, I would avoid it as it most likely has been cross contaminated with wheat. Take care, Sandi

    I have been glutened so many times at Sam’s I am going to join Cosco next month. It’s 10 min further each way but I need to do this. I am hoping the raw nuts and also various dried fruits that are naturally GF are not processed on equipment that process wheat, rye or barley. I’m not one for processed foods, so I need frozen fruits, veges, etc that I can count on to be safe.

      Unfortunately, the Costco pecans and almonds I just bought this week carry the warning that they were processed on equipment with wheat. This is a pretty rough blow for our family, as their prices on nuts are amazing and make almond meal baking possible. No more Costco nuts, I guess. 🙁

Honestly, given how they use their commercial kitchens, I don’t think they would be able to manage cross contamination to keep you safe. I do plan to head to Costco later this week and I will do a double check to see if they have any gluten free cake mixes on hand and report back.

They were small, in a resealable bag. The bag said the company beGan after a mom sent her cookies to her son when he was away (at college, I think). Does anybody know what I’m talking about?

    Hey there. Regarding kirkland’s deli premade meals. They all may contain wheat and are labelled as much. And you eluded to the fact that most Kirkland made foods are labelled as containing wheat and I completely agree. It’s very frustrating at times as the food looks so good! Our stores here in Alberta only carry one bakery item that is glute free, which is the two pack of Essential bread. The sheet cakes, cookies etc all are labelled as containing wheat. So I end up just walking by the bakery, and most of the deli. Of course they do have meats and cheeses that are gluten free, thank god. I do adore their produce section as everything is so big and yummy! Like the apples, pineapples, carrots etc..In conclusion, I’d have to say that the two favourite GF made foods are the sabasso pizza and a company from British Columbia called Boomchicka pop that makes these big yellow bags of the freshest lightly-est sea salted and sunflower oiled popcorn I’ve ever had. So thank you Sandi for all your work into the gluten free world of Costco! I am a diagnosed celiac since 2010 and had severe damage to my small intestine as a result. A few gastroscopies and biopsies later (AND a gluten free life!)I am now in remission. …naturally as long as I remain gluten free. I am an adamant advocate of NOT diagnosing yourself because you feel a little bloated after eating a sandwich. A true celiac will tell you that 3-5 days after being glutened, you want to die. A simple blood test will “usually” show positive but a biopsy is the only way to see if it is destroying your body. I’m sorry for writing so much! I talk a lot too! Thank you and hope you have a great summer! Mary M.

      I wish they were better with Kirkland products, but I’m glad they do list the ingredients clearly. We don’t have that Essential bread in our Costcos here in the Bay Area any longer. It is a bummer because I loved them. I am so happy to hear you are in remission, it sounds like you had a really scary experience. I should be updating this Costco guide in the next week. I found a TON more gluten free products when I was at my local Costco last week. Take care, Sandi

      Hi Robin,

      I do not see gluten listed on the regular Kirkland Smoked Salmon. I have had it numerous times without a reaction. That being said, did your daughter eat it on something that could have been cross contaminated? Either the bread (if from a non-gluten free environment), cutting board or cutting knife that could have had gluten on them?

    The Cranberry Chicken salad is gf but not good. It’s bad enough that it has temporarily turned me off chicken salad entirely.

    Thank you for posting all of this!

      Thank you for letting us know Laura…I am not going to buy it. I like chicken salad too much to risk turning me off :-).

      My husband and I both love the cranberry chicken salad, so I was thrilled to find out that it is gluten-free. You might want to try it and judge for yourself.

    Costco currently has an uncurred hot dog that they demo’d today. Gf – dairy free and tasty!! Coleman Premium Foods. I have issues with gluten, dairy and the too much salt- (salt bliws my ankles up but I love hot dogs on occasion). ! It only has 340 mgs soduum per link. No antibiotics and cane sugar.

    My Dad has been GF for years now. He recently found the KIND nut bars from Costco. They are sooo good! Something that is easy to throw in a bag now that traditional granola bars are not a choice anymore.

    So where is the printable list that it keeps saying is at the bottom of this column. I don’t see it anywhere, and I’ve scrolled up and down three times.

    Oh, and are those egg white quiche at Costco gluten-free?

    Thank you.

      Hi Harriet, I don’t know how to make a special button, look for this text in the post: Costco-Gluten-Free-Shopping-List-2 That is the link to the pdf to download. I hope this helps. I haven’t seen the egg white quiche at Costco. I should be shopping there next week and will take a look. I finally did try the chicken salad, it was pretty good :-). My kids didn’t like it, but my husband and I did. Thank you so much for stopping bye 🙂

    I just subscribed to your blog. Thank you very much for putting it together. Shopping for a picky 7 year old daughter with celiac disease is hard enough. I have a question about Costco, my daughter loves their roasted seaweed, but I can’t find it listed anywhere as gluten free. It’s ingredients don’t show any gluten containing products but I hate to take any chances. Do you have any information on it.

      Oh my gosh, the note you typed to me is so much like my daughter. She is picky and LOVES that seaweed too. I am not sure, but I can say my Celiac daughter eats a lot of the seaweed and hasn’t reacted. You could also call your Costco and ask. I find Costco if you can get a human, is very good at finding out about gluten-free. My daughter is still really picky, please don’t hesitate to contact me at [email protected] if you ever have any questions about kid-friendly food or recipes. Thank you for subscribing.

    Does anyone know if the Costco prepared spinach salad with bacon and mozzarella is gluten-free? A friend brought me some but I’m afraid to try it. It is not labeled as gluten-free

    In looking at your list, I noticed Aidel’s meatballs are listed as gluten free. While some are, the last time I checked, the teriyaki meatballs are not gluten free. 🙁 The mango Habanero one are)

    Just to let you know that the Lotus Foods Millet & Brown Rice Ramen is no longer available through Costco. I had my husband look for some for me just yesterday in our local Costco. He asked two different associates about the product and they finally asked the manager. If you check the Costco.com site there are no Lotus Foods available at all anywhere in the system. I did notice that the product is available through Walmart.com but not in the local stores. I love this product as I have a hard time finding things that I am not allergic to. I am gluten sensitive, mammal sensitive, allergic to most fruits, all night shade foods, avacodos, all melons and deathly allergic to shrimp. Cottonseed oil makes my fibromyalgia go crazy. Nothing makes me hurt worse than the cottonseed oil. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

      That is a bummer, it was nice to get those big bags of ramen. I have seen individual packets at Sprout Market and Walmart locally here in the Bay Area.
