One of the things I love is roasted red potatoes. I’d take them over mashed/baked potatoes anyday. Something about the crisp outside and soft inside and great flavor that always wins me over. So I was excited to get the Meals to Live Grilled White Chicken with Roasted Red Potatoes & Green Beans in the mail the other day and […]

Chatfield’s Carob Powder
Ever heard of Carob Powder? I remember reading about carob instead of cocoa when I was younger in health magazines and whatnot, but never actually tried it. But I was sent a free can of Carob Powder from Chatfield’s/PANOS Brands and now had the opportunity to do so. According to the can, there is “No Chocolate, Cocoa or Caffeine” in […]

New England Naturals Organic Antioxidant Granola with Superfruit Berries and Vanilla
Another granola review from the New England Naturals line! Last time I tried the Banana Walnut and thought it was pretty good. Now today is the New England Naturals Organic Antioxidant Granola with Superfruit Berries and Vanilla. So this one, according to the package, has “36 grams of whole grains”, and is “rich in Omega-3”.Now, to be fair, I believe […]

Lean Cuisine Four Cheese Pizza
Browsing the grocery store, all of a sudden I thought Pizzzzzaaa. I want some pizza!! So I decided to try something I haven’t tried before, a Lean Cuisine Pizza. I picked this particular one because the ingredients looked pretty good, and there was 20 grams of protein in one of the pizzas. I pulled it out of my freezer around […]

Meals to Live White Chicken Burrito
Following my last Meals to Live review, last night I tried the White Chicken Burrito. It sounded delicious, and good for me too! It had 15 grams of fiber, 17 grams of protein, and only 5 grams of fat (and only 480 mg of sodium, which I don’t think is that bad!) I opened the box, cooked it for about […]

Amy’s Kitchen Macaroni & Cheese
Ok. I’ve heard excellent things about this dish, and I finally tried it. Seeing as the avid Amy’s Kitchen fan I am, I asked myself why have I NOT tried this yet? I’ll reiterate that I’m not a HUGE fan of pasta, but it’s yummy every now and then. So I steamed up some broccoli (my usual veggie of choice), […]

New England Naturals Banana Walnut Granola
New England Naturals combines two of my favorite things in one- bananas and granola. Being the avid cereal lover I am, granola is certainly on top of the list. According to the package, this granola has “Banana Chips, Walnuts & Honey”, as well as “27 grams of whole grains” with “0g trans fats”. Sounds like a winner to me! I […]

Larabar Blueberry Muffin bar
Oh yea, here’s something BRANDDD NEWWW! Yesterday I got a lovely package from LARABAR with some new Blueberry Muffin Larabars inside. YES! I love new products! I thought when I opened the box. The first thing I noticed was that the wrapper was much more of a plastic-y wrapper than usual, but then again, maybe it’s just me and my […]

Newman’s Own Organics Organic Apples
I happen to like dried fruit. Chewy, sweet, good on the go or in cereal. Although apricots may be my favorite, I thought that dried apples would be good as well seeing as apples are my favorite fruit. Anyway, seeing the picture below (apologies for ripping the bag HORRIBLY), the apples look like dried apple slices. Each one was tough, […]

Amy’s Kitchen Indian Mattar Paneer
Amy’s Kitchen has yet to let me down when I have tried their meals in the past, and they certainly didn’t let me down with the Indian Mattar Paneer. Although I have had comments from people about the spicy smell that floods the kitchen (sorry!!), this meal is too good to pass up. The box says it’s “curried peas & […]
