I started to get hungry in the afternoon so I decided to have a little snack.
My friend Jenea posted online about Naturebox, a healthy
snack website that sends you 5 healthy snacks with a monthly subscription. I checked it out and by clicking on this
link: Naturebox Healthy Snacks, I received $5 my first order. The normal cost is $19.95. I have to say, I am so pleased with the snacks I received that I think I will continue with getting them monthly. You can cancel at anytime with no penalty.
What I love most about these snacks is:
No high fructose corn
syrup
No Partially hydrogenated Oils
No Trans Fats
No artificial Sweeteners
No Artificial Colors
No Artificial Flavors
I tried 2 yesterday.
Cranberry Almond Bites: These were probably the snacks I was most interested in when I
unboxed. They look like tiny granola bars and are made with crispy rice, tart
cranberries, and almonds. They are slightly pink from the cranberries and are
cut up into perfect portion sizes and they were delicious!
Wild Berry Bunch: I love mixes and there are tons of berries in this one! This might
be my favorite so far. The berries are
so moist and flavorful.
I also received Orange Crush Granola, Lone Star Snack Mix and Masa Crisps. Maybe If I get hungry later I will pop one open.
For dinner last night I was having Tahini and Avocado Kale Salad Wraps that I had made the night before. I was so excited to eat this wrap. It was filled with tomatoes, carrots, avocado and the tahini/avocado dressing I made that looked so amazing. I was using a flax seed, oat an wheat lavish wrap. How could I not love something filled with such yumminess?
I poked my fork into the bowl and stabbed a little bit of everything and shoved it in my mouth. ehhhh. Not so good. It was bland. Not much flavor. I can't decided if it was the kale or the dressing. maybe a little bit of both.
I halved the recipe and still have a TON of salad left over. It wasn't completely inedible so I stated to make my wrap. I saved half and avocado from the dressing i made and sliced that up. I love avocado. I look forward to guacamole and deck time :)
I piled the kale salad into the wrap, added more avocado and sprinkled with salt.
Tada! The avocado made this wrap. I am eating this again tonight and I will probably throw out the rest. I hate wasting food, but I don't think I can eat this again.
I was coaxed into going to lunch today. Cafe Antonio's. I had a delish salmon salad last time I was there so I was hoping to find it there again. I had a cup of Maryland crab soup. I had an amazing salad with onions, tomatoes, feta, mozzarella, walnuts and a generous size of salmon, balsamic vinaigrette.... soooo delish!
