Another good choice for gluten-free

diets is Amazake, a naturally sweet, rich, refreshing shake made from

whole grain organic brown rice. Pure ingredients like vanilla, almonds,

hazelnuts, pecans, bananas and mangoes are added to create a variety of

delicious flavors.

"Mochi and Amazake are

great examples of foods that serve the needs of people with conditions

like celiac disease (gluten intolerance), but which are also a healthful

alternative for people interested in eating right," said Plotkin.

"We set out to make great-tasting food which just happens to be gluten

free."

Here's a recipe for waffles

using Mochi which would be a good addition to any breakfast plate.

Grainaissance Mochi can be

found in the dairy or freezer case. It comes in eight distinctive flavors:

Raisin-Cinnamon, Sesame-Garlic, Super Seed, Cashew-Date, Plain, Wheatgrass

with Mugwort, Pizza and Chocolate Brownie with Walnuts. Look for Amazake

in the refrigerated section. Choose from a wide variety of flavors, including

Tiger Chai, Coco-Latte Decaf, Amazing Mango, and Oh So Original.

Finding new, healthy foods

you love will payoff in many ways: you'll feel great, have renewed

energy and enjoy fresh flavors.
