Today’s Guest Blogger – Lauren of Crumb Bums

I’m so excited for Lauren of Crumb Bums to be my guest blogger today (especially since it’s been forever since I’ve had a guest blogger). And especially since it’s Lauren! Lauren is the wife of one of my old co-workers who I became fast friends with (mainly virtually since they now live in St. Louis).  [...]

Simple Strawberry Smoothie

A friend and I were recently venting to each other how we just can’t seem to find a flavored yogurt with a more reasonable amount of sugar – almost all of the brands have 20-something grams of sugar or more per 6-8 oz serving. That is a lot of sugar for such a small amount [...]

Crispy Green Giveaway!

Crispy Green’s freeze-dried fruit snacks are shockingly delicious. I say “shockingly” because  when I saw “freeze-dried” I didn’t expect such delicious flavor…flavor SO similar to the actual piece of fruit! After trying several of the varieties (all tasty), the mango is definitely my favorite. The full choice of flavors include: Fuji Apple, Asian Pear, Banana, [...]

Perfect Weekend Snack

Personally I love anchovies, but I realize it’s not the most common love. If you haven’t already, please give them a try [...]

Yogurt 101

Some of the basics & benefits of yogurt: If you want to avoid high sugar content just go with plain! Even the plain varieties naturally have 12 g of sugar. The sweetened have up to 35 g! Greek yogurt, which is much thicker, can contain up to twice the protein of a non-Greek brand, but it has [...]

A Tasty & Nutritious Snack

I have a new favorite snack that is so easy, tasty and healthy.  A friend gave me the idea for this a while ago (Thanks, Dana!). Recipe: 1 bag organic plain popcorn  (An option: Newman’s Own Organics — go for the no salt, no butter variety) a really good drizzling of extra virgin olive oil [...]

Garden of Eatin’® makes tortilla chips called Red Hot Blues that are quite delicious. They are spicy and flavorful, but not too spicy. They are salted, but very mildly salted. I would highly suggest these if you’re looking for a healthy, but flavorful tortilla chip!
