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. If you are sticking to a budget, you can find more tips for living gluten free on a budget!

(*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.)

Costco Gluten Free Bread

Some Costco stores sell Udi's Gluten free bread in the freezer section. Others sell twin packs of this Franz Gluten Free Bread in shelf stable packaging. Which does your store carry?

Costco Gluten Free Pasta Brands

*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.

1. 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.)
2. 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.
3. These Organic Manitou Rice Noodles are new at Costco and are perfect for making Asian dishes! Give it a try in this easy Gluten Free Beef and Broccoli recipe.
4. 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?
5. I bought these Healthy Noodle noodles to try. My kids HATED them. These are supposed to be fat free, zero carb...let me know what you think!

Costco Gluten Free Granola

There are lots of gluten free granola recipes on my blog that you can make at home. It is so much cheaper to make your own, but buying granola at Costco can also save you money buying it in bulk!

1. Safe Fair Birthday Cake Granola - there out to be a law against this granola because it is so YUMMY that it is easy to overeat it!
2. Autumn's Gold Paleo Granola - this new grain-free granola from Autumn Gold is really good and not too sweet. If you want to try making your own paleo granola, it is really easy to make from scratch with this Paleo Granola recipe.
3. Purely Elizabeth Granola - I like this brand. It is for sale at most grocery stores, but buying this in bulk is definitely the cheapest way to go.
4. Chex Granola - 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?
5. Nature's Own has a new gluten free granola. I haven't tried this brand, but if you love granola...let me know what you think. You can also make homemade granola in just minutes with this easy Cinnamon Granola recipe.

Costco Gluten Free Protein Bars

1. The Perfect Bar - These are by far our family's favorite gluten free protein bars. (Note, 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.
2. Wella Bars - Here is a new gluten free protein bar from Ella. These are in the refrigerated section of Costco so they aren't in the usual place. I am going to buy these and I will let you know what we think. I suspect these gluten free bars will be good in a school lunchbox!
3. Nogi 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.

2. Organic Bin Bin Rice Crackers - I haven't tried these but I imagine they would be great with my Roasted Eggplant and Red Pepper Dip recipe.
3. Inno Foods Coconut Clusters - I LOVE these and I buy a big bag every time I visit Costco. These Coconut Clusters at Costco are crazy addictive so consider yourself warned. I ate a good portion of the bag driving home. Just watch the chia seeds, they can get stuck in your teeth.

5. Two Moms - 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.

Sonoma Flatbreads Chicken and Kale Flatbread look really good. I bought them so I will have to report back how they taste!

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?

For my vegan readers. Costco now carries 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.

Costco Gluten Free Desserts

I probably should have this section at the top of the post, you know I am all about gluten free desserts!!
