My Favorite Dairy-Free Finds at Whole Foods

I've been shopping at Whole Foods for a few years now, and it quickly became my favorite place to shop. While I love a visit to Wegmans, the ease of online ordering, grocery delivery, and the healthy options available at Whole Foods have really won me over. These are some of my favorite dairy free items that I've come to love over the years, with lots of gluten free and vegan options, too.

Important to note: I am including the ingredients for some of these items for reference only. ALWAYS be sure to check the packaging of items when you purchase, as some ingredients may change.

These are definitely my favorite find. I found them in a freezer near the bakery, and they're free of top 7 allergens: dairy, gluten, eggs, fish, shellfish, soy, and peanuts. I was not expecting these to be as good as they are, and they actually do taste similar to a Hostess cupcake. I like that they are mini-sized to keep my portion control in check. According to the website, these are now called Mini Mo's, and the recipe has changed. You can find more info here.

Ingredients on my package of cupcakes are: Water, flour mix (white rice flour, tapioca flour, potato starch, guar gum, salt), organic light brown sugar, organic cane sugar, canola oil, cocoa, natural vanilla flavor, egg replacer (potato starch, tapioca flour, leavening [calcium lactate {non-dairy source}, calcium carbonate, cream of tartar], cellulose gum, modified cellulose), baking powder (monocalcium phosphate, potato starch, potassium bicarbonate), espresso, baking soda, salt, chocolate (evaporated cane juice, natural chocolate liquor, non-dairy cocoa butter), PGPR (non-GMO emulsifier), organic coconut cream (coconut milk [coconut, water], guar gum, vanilla bean paste [sugar, water, pure vanilla bean extract, vanilla beans]), organic powdered sugar, organic sustainably sourced palm oil

Made with handmade dough filled with whipped almond ricotta, fresh garlic and sauteed spinach, these dairy-free ravioli from Kite Hill were a pleasant find. These are also available with mushroom instead of spinach, and they cook in boiling water for 4 - 6 minutes.

Spinach and Ricotta ingredients: Filling (non-dairy ricotta cheese [almond milk {water, almonds}, salt, enzymes, cultures], spinach, breadcrumbs [wheat flour, non-bone char sugar, yeast, salt], roasted garlic base [roasted garlic, salt, maltodextrin from corn], natural vegan flavors, corn starch, canola oil, sesame oil), garlic, salt, black pepper, pasta (durum flour, water, beta-carotene)

If you miss croissants because you can't eat real butter, these are the perfect alternative and taste just like the real thing. Whole Foods bakes these vegan croissants that are flaky, full of rich buttery flavor, and no one would ever guess that they're vegan. You can find them in the bakery section of the store, where they're usually made fresh daily.

Ingredients: Unbleached Enriched Flour (wheat flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), Water, Margarine (palm oil, canola oil, water, sugar, vegetable monoglycerides, soy lecithin, natural flavor, citric acid, annatto and tumeric, vitamin a palmitate, vitamin d2), Yeast, Sugar, Salt, Wheat Gluten, Natural Flavor, Vegetable Proteins (pea, potato, fava bean), Vegetable Oil (sunflower, canola), Dextrose, Corn Maltodextrin, Corn Starch, Ascorbic Acid, Food Enzymes (xylanase, amylase).

Pizza is a hard food to replace if you can't eat dairy, but Daiya created this amazing option that tastes as close to the real thing as you can get. Not only is it dairy free, but it's also free from soy and gluten, as well as being vegan. This is the top choice for pizza in our house. The cheese melts perfectly, the crust bakes soft and slightly crisp, and the plant based meat has a flavor and texture very similar to the real thing. If you haven't tried a Daiya pizza yet, I highly recommend them.

Earth Balance has been a go-to brand for our family for over a decade, and this buttery spread was the saving grace I needed when we first had to quit dairy. If you're looking for an alternative to traditional butter, this brand offers delicious options that come in both tub and stick form. The tub is great for daily cooking and things like toast, and the sticks are great for baking. They offer an original and soy free option, as well as an organic recipe.

If you were once a fan of Doritos and are looking for a dairy free (or healthier) option, these chips are a great option. They're crispy, crunchy, and loaded with zesty ranch flavor that you would never guess is dairy free. This is one of my favorite brands, and if you follow me on Instagram you've probably seen their products in my Stories. All Siete's products are gluten and grain free, and are made from simple, wholesome ingredients. They quickly became a weekly go-to for me, and you'll see more products from them later on in this list.

Ingredients: Cassava Flour, Avocado Oil, Coconut Flour, Ground Chia Seed, Sea Salt, Coconut Milk Powder, Nutritional Yeast, Dill Weed, Citric Acid, Lactic Acid, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Parsley Powder

This is another flavored tortilla chip offered up by Siete, and they've become a regular in my pantry. Similar to the ranch option, this nacho flavor reminds me of Doritos without all the added junk and dairy. There's plenty of crispiness to satisfy those crunchy chip cravings, and lots of snappy spice without the heat.

Ingredients: Cassava Flour, Avocado Oil, Coconut Flour, Ground Chia Seed, Sea Salt, Tomato Powder, Nutritional Yeast, Smoked Serrano Powder, Citric Acid, Jalapeño Powder, Toasted Onion Powder, Roasted Garlic Powder

My favorite gluten free crackers at Whole Foods are these pita crackers from Simple Mills. They contain no artificial ingredients, and they're a processed food that I feel a tiny bit better about eating. They're salty, crunchy, and hold up pretty well to a scoop through the hummus.

Ingredients: Vegetable Flour Blend(Sweet Potato, Parsnip, Celery Root) , Seed Flour Blend (Sunflower Seeds, Flax Seeds), Cassava Flour, Tapioca Starch, Organic Sunflower Oil, Himalayan Salt, Rosemary Extract (for freshness)

These rice cakes are a great addition to your snack rotation. I like to top them with some egg salad, chicken salad, or a thin smear of hummus and some chopped veggies.

Ingredients: Organic brown rice, red rice, and quinoa

If salty sweet and crunchy combos are your thing, you'll love these Churro Strips from Siete. These are grain free, gluten free, dairy free, and so good. I'll enjoy a few of these to satisfy that afternoon sweet tooth, and they're also amazing with chocolate hummus or fruit salsa.

Ingredients: Cassava Flour, Avocado Oil, Coconut Sugar, Agave Syrup, Pumpkin Powder, Cinnamon, Psyllium Husk Powder, Sea Salt, Vanilla Powder.

One of the foods that I really missed when I had to give up dairy was mac and cheese. Thankfully (a decade later) there are some great dairy free cheeses available to make mac and cheese from scratch. If you're looking for a good boxed version, this Deluxe Cheeze Mac by Daiya is my favorite option. It comes with a premade cheese packet similar to Velveta, which melts in to a smooth, creamy, cheesy sauce. This is also free from gluten and soy, which makes it a great choice for families with multiple dietary restrictions.

Ingredients: Brown rice pasta (whole grain brown rice, rice bran, water), filtered water, tapioca starch, non-GMO expeller pressed: canola and/or safflower oil, coconut oil, sea salt, vegan natural flavours, pea protein isolate, tricalcium phosphate, cane sugar, lactic acid (vegan), xanthan gum, yeast extract, titanium dioxide (naturally occurring mineral), annatto (colour), onion

Applegate is a brand you'll see a few times on this list, and their chicken nuggets are my go-to option. They're easy to prepare, crispy, flavorful, and of course popular with the kids. They also offer a gluten free option if you need it.

Ingredients: White Meat Chicken, Wheat Flour, Water. Contains Less Than 2% Of The Following: Corn Starch, Organic Evaporated Cane Sugar, Sea Salt, Degerminated Yellow Corn Flour, Yeast, Dehydrated Onion, Dehydrated Garlic, Yeast Extract. Breading Set In Expeller Pressed Canola Oil.

These chicken patties are a delicious, healthy option to have on hand. They're available in the frozen section of the store, and require just a few minutes of cooking time. I like to serve them on a gluten free bun with a side salad.

Ingredients: Antibiotic Free Chicken, Mushrooms, Celery, Onion, Kale, Olive Oil, Dehydrated Carrot, Seasoning Blend (rice flour, kosher salt, onion powder, black pepper, dried rosemary, roasted garlic, cayenne pepper), Tomato Paste, (tomatoes, water, citric acid).

You won't find a lack of gluten free breads at Whole Foods, but Udi's is my favorite. There are a few different bread options to choose from, and the burger buns are great. Check the frozen bread section of the store for these options.

If you have a craving for Chinese food but can't have gluten or dairy, these three items are how I fulfill those cravings. You can find all three of these in the frozen foods section of the store, and they're all delicious. Primal Kitchen has a few frozen meal options that I like, and this chicken fried riced cauliflower is one of them. It has lots of veggies and good sized chunks of chicken, with a good amount of Asian flavor. If cauliflower rice isn't your thing, the veggie fried rice from 365 brand is also a great one to try. Feel Good Foods is an amazing gluten free brand that I find myself buying pretty frequently. I'm usually happy with the healthier ingredients, and the flavor and texture are usually on point. Just be sure to always read the ingredients because some of their items do contain milk.

These gluten free coconut shrimp are one of my most favorite finds. They're available in the freezer section of the store, and they're ready to eat in under 30 minutes. I've served these to a handful of gluten-loving folks, and everyone always comments on how tasty they are. They're great to have on hand in your freezer for a last minute appetizer, after school snack, or part of a quick dinner option. There's also a Boom Boom option available if coconut isn't your thing.

Ingredients: Shrimp (Farm Raised); Coconut Flakes; Potato Starch; Rice Flour; Egg White; Soybean Oil*; Yeast; Salt; Cayenne Powder; Natural Spices* *Non-GMO

This Sweet Thai Chili Sauce is the perfect dip for those coconut shrimp I mentioned above. It's perfectly sweet with just a hint of chili, and most kids won't find this to be too spicy.

If you're Italian and hold the belief that frozen meatballs are an abomination, my apologies and please look away. If you're on the other side of this issue and looking for an easy option to throw at your pasta or to make into sandwiches, I think you'll find these meatballs do quite nicely. They're not only dairy free but gluten free, too, and work great for meatball sandwiches should you find yourself with a house full of hungry teenagers.

If meat and potatoes is more your style, try these steak and potato pot pies from Boomerang's. Tender beef and potatoes are smothered in a flavorful gravy and surrounded by a flaky, buttery, puff pastry. These are dairy free, but they do contain gluten.

Whole Foods has a pretty great selection of dairy free cheeses to choose from. Some of my favorites are Daiya, Violife, Miyoko's, and Kite Hill.

Violife is one of my favorite dairy free brands, and one that I always recommend to people just starting out on their dairy free journey. Their cheeses have flavor that is as close to the real thing as you can get. The texture and ability to melt is better than most other nondairy options I've tried, and there are a variety of options to choose from. They offer shreds, slices, shreddable mozzarella and parmesan, feta, and cream cheese. This brand uses no GMO's, preservatives, gluten, or weird ingredients you can't pronounce.

Ingredients: Filtered Water, Coconut Oil, Food Starch-Modified (Potato & Corn), Potato Starch, Salt (Sea Salt), Cheddar Flavor (vegan sources), Olive Extract, Paprika extract & Beta Carotene (Color), Vitamin B12.

These vegan colby jack cheese shreds are my go-to for Mexican dishes and cheesy omelets. They're great in quesadillas, tacos, enchiladas, and mac and cheese.

Ingredients: Filtered Water, Coconut Oil, Food Starch-modified (Potato & Corn), Potato Starch, Salt (Sea Salt), Organic Ground Sunflower Kernel, Colby Jack Flavor (Vegan Sources), Lactic Acid, Olive Extract, Paprika Extract & Beta Carotene (Color), Vitamin B12, Powdered Cellulose Added To Prevent Caking.

Ingredients: Filtered Water, Coconut Oil, Potato Starch, Salt (Sea Salt), Glucono-delta-lactone, Flavor (Vegan Sources), Olive Extract, Vitamin B12.

If you're looking for a dairy free mozzarella option, look no further than Miyoko's. You'll find this cheese to be delightfully similar in flavor and texture to the real thing. It shreds and melts pretty well, and it's a great option in recipes from pizzas and lasagnas to a vegan caprese.

Kite Hill is another brand that I absolutely love for their nondairy options. I've used this cream cheese alternative many times for baking, and the results are always very similar to what I get using traditional cream cheese. This cream cheese has a bit more tang than Violife's, and has all the smooth, creamy texture you'd expect out of a cream cheese.

Ingredients: Almond Milk (Water, Almonds), Salt, Enzyme, Xanthan Gum, Guar Gum, Mushroom Extract (to help preserve freshness), Lactic Acid, Citric Acid, Cultures

Kite Hill also offers nondairy dips that are perfect for veggies and chips. Ranch, french onion, ad tzatziki are the flavor options currently available, and they're the perfect addition to your appetizer spread or veggie boards. We enjoy all three flavors, but these do have a distinct difference in flavor from the traditional dips you're used to.

French Onion Ingredients: Almond Milk (Water, Almonds), Rice Starch, Salt, Dehydrated Onion, Onion Powder, Sugar, Yeast Extract, Maltodextrin, Dehydrated Parsley, Caramelized Sugar, Xanthan Gum, Live Active Cultures

Made right in my home state of Massachusetts, this dressing by Cindy's Kitchen is a new find for me. Although this isn't a dairy-free company, they do offer a few options that dairy-free or vegan.

Daiya has made it's way to lots of stores across the country, but this cheesecake is worth talking about again. The perfect summer time treat, I love Daiya Cheezecake and keep one in the freezer for a last minute lifesaver. Kids love the strawberry flavor, and no one will guess that this is dairy-free.

Nothing groundbreaking here, but these vanilla sandwich creme cookies are dairy-free and kid approved so you can't go wrong. Think vanilla Oreo's with slightly better ingredients. They're made by Whole Foods store brand, 365, and were reasonably priced at $2.99.

Ingredients: CANE SUGAR, UNBLEACHED ENRICHED WHEAT FLOUR (WHEAT FLOUR, NIACIN, REDUCED IRON, THIAMINE MONONITRATE, RIBOFLAVIN, FOLIC ACID), EXPELLER PRESSED CANOLA OIL, WHEAT STARCH, INVERT SUGAR SYRUP, SALT, BAKING SODA (SODIUM BICARBONATE), NATURAL VANILLA FLAVOR, SOY LECITHIN (EMULSIFIER).

Siete is a brand that I've mentioned before, but they're grain free cookies are very worthy of mentioning.

Another item that you've probably seen at other stores, Dandies natural marshmallows are worth finding if you haven't already. They're made without high fructose corn syrup and gelatin, and are vegan and non-gmo project verified. No one will be able to tell the difference between these and your average store bought marshmallow, but you can feel better about the ingredients. They also make pumpkin and peppermint flavored, which is fun for a seasonal treat.

Ingredients: Tapioca Syrup, Cane Sugar, Filtered Water, Tapioca Starch, Carrageenan, Soy Protein, Natural Vanilla Flavor. Contains: Soy. Gluten Free.

I found these Heavenly Creme Cakes in the frozen section, and they're similar to Twinkies! They're free from gluten, dairy, nuts, and soy, and made in a facility certified to be free from those ingredients. I found the creme filling to be a bit sweeter than in a Twinkie, but overall it's a good substitute. There is also a chocolate version available. Since they're frozen you need to thaw it for two hours before eating, or microwave it for ten seconds.

Ingredients: EGGS, SUGAR, GLUTEN FREE FLOUR (BROWN RICE FLOUR, WHITE RICE FLOUR, CORN STARCH, POTATO STARCH, TAPIOCA STARCH, POTATO FLOUR), WATER, PALM OIL, CANOLA OIL, PURE VANILLA EXTRACT, BAKING POWDER (SODIUM ACID PYROPHOSPHATE, SODIUM BICARBONATE, CORN STARCH, MONOCALCIUM PHOSPHATE), XANTHAN GUM, SALT.

You'll find a large selection of cake and dessert mixes at Whole Foods (too many to list here), but this gluten free option from King Arthur is my favorite. It's moist, fudgy, rich, and no one will ever know it's gluten free. For another option, try the gluten free, dairy free option from 365.

Ingredients: Cane Sugar, Rice Flour, Modified Tapioca Starch, Cocoa Processed With Alkali, Potato Starch, Emulsifier (Rice Starch, Polyglycerol Esters Of Fatty Acids, Mono- And Diglycerides), Baking Powder (Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Baking Soda, Cornstarch, Monocalcium Phosphate), Salt, Xanthan Gum.

Make sure you stop by the bakery case when visiting the store, where you'll be pleasantly surprised with a decent selection of freshly baked dairy free desserts. The options vary depending on the season, but there's always something delicious available (like this lemon poppy cake)

If your store happens to have these vegan peanut butter cookies in the bakery department, I highly recommend them. They're soft, chewy, full of peanut butter flavor, and absolutely addicting.

I've had products made by Wholesome before, but hadn't seen this strawberry frosting yet. As with their other products I've tried, Wholesome hit it out of the park with this frosting. It's Non-GMO Project Verified, Fair Trade Certified, Gluten Free, Kosher and Vegan. It's also made with organic powdered sugar, and NO high fructose corn syrup or artificial colors! It was delicious on a simple homemade vanilla cake (and maybe a scoop or two straight out of jar).

I think you'll find the nondairy ice cream options at Whole Foods quite impressive. There are just too many amazing options to choose from, but pictured here are a few of my favorites. Oatly, Fomu, Ben & Jerry's, and Nado Moo have amazing flavor combinations to choose from, but that cookie sandwich on the top is my absolute favorite. It's from the brand Coolhaus, and it will really blow you away. It has deliciously creamy, sweet, dairy free vanilla ice cream nestled between two soft chocolate chip cookies, and it is heavenly. Coolhaus offers a few different dairy free options, but a note of caution should be offered here - this brand does make products with conventional dairy, and has been recalled in the past for undeclared milk. If you are anaphylactic to milk, you will want to carefully consider this brand.

I love these chocolate gems from Hu. They're free from refined sugars, so you can feel a little better about snacking on them. They're great by the handful if you just need a quick sweet treat, or to use in your favorite dessert recipe or baked goods.

Kids love corn dogs, and this is a tasty option that's free from both dairy and gluten.

Hot dogs were one of those food items that I was shocked to learn could contain milk. Milk, in a hot dog?! It just doesn't seem like it belongs in there. Thankfully these dogs from Applegate contain no milk or gluten, and the ingredients are much, much better than your typical hot dog.
