Introducing…Vitamin Shoppe’s Protein Pantry! A new section at Vitamin Shoppe filled with yummy protein packed foods! My favorite. Aside from the traditional protein bars, I like eating protein enriched foods, since I have such an active lifestyle. Gotta fuel those muscles! They sent me MET-RX Protein Pancake Mix, P28 Apple Crisp Spread, and D’s Naturals Fluff Butter in Chocolate Fudge […]

Perky Fruit Bodies- Cacao Banana Coconut, Coconut Banana, Strawberry Banana
I got some yummy Perky Fruit Bodies to try! What is that, you say? These are organic, raw, vegan, gluten free, and kosher “fruit leathers”. Let’s get to it! ^-^ Coconut Banana– this one is squished! The color and appearance isn’t appetizing, but we always go beyond that for food reviews! The flavor is OK. Banana and coconut flavor […]

Bio-K PLUS Fermented Dairy Probiotic- Strawberry
Probiotics are super important in anyone’s diet. They help keep your immune system working well as well as your colon and bowels happy with a healthy flora of bacteria.

Growing Naturals Organic Rice Protein in Strawberry Burst
Alrighty! So, I do not drink a ton of protein powder- not my style, I am much more of a food eater, but it definitely has a place in my diet. I tend to stick to low carb whey proteins, and use them when I need calories post workout and do not feel hungry or for convenience in the morning. […]

Mancakes Cinnamon Oat High Protein Pancake/Waffle Mix
I bought this mix after seeing it on one of my idol’s pages…Miss Dana Linn Bailey. I was in search of something low sugar but breakfast-y, that was also high in protein. Let’s be honest, I can only eat egg whites so many mornings, or plain greek yogurt with protein powder. So I bought this flavor, Cinnamon Oat, and hoped […]

Blake’s Shepherd’s Pie
Mmmm. Shepherd’s Pie. One of my favorites. I saw this at Target, and used a coupon mailed to me at the courtesy of Blake’s…thanks guys! 🙂 There were two cooking methods…microwave oven or conventional oven. I chose microwave (because I’m lazy). I decided tonight would be a good time for a microwave dinner because 1. It was hot, and I […]

Blake’s Hearty Beef Stew
Saw this at Target today (the best store in the world, duh) and decided to give it a whirl. I often stay away from frozen dinners for a few reasons… 1. Full of sodium (hellooooo bloating) 2. Full of preservatives (how about some BHT with your carrots?) 3. Teeny portions for a lot of money And while this one looked […]
