{Review & Giveaway} Taste of Nature Bars

There are many days I find myself stuck on the couch with a baby on my boob making it a challenge for me to make a meal.  I never understood how woman said that they forgot meals when they became moms but now I can understand.  I don’t ever forget a meal but at times I find it a challenge to make a meal with such a wonderful but demanding baby.  That being said I have been turning to quick, easy and healthy snacks that I can keep by the couch and in the pantry for when I need to grab something to eat but don’t have the time to make a meal.

 

Lately I have been enjoying Taste of Nature Bars which I first tried in my Harry & David snack tote and then again at the Rock ‘n’ Roll Half Marathon. I have sampled a variety of flavors and they are all wonderful. I love that these bars are 100% Organic, Certified Kosher, Certified Vegan, Low Sodium, Source of fiber, Source of Omega-3, Source of Energy,and  Non GMO, source of antioxidants. They are also low on the glycemic index and are made with brown rice syrup and agave.

I enjoyed all of the flavors but the best one is the Canadian Maple Forest.

Product Review: Danielle Crispy Fruit Chip

4 Comments

Danielle Crispy Fruit Chips are my new obsession.  I recently saw these at Whole Foods and was tempted to try them but talked myself out of it.  So when Neherbal Foods said they world send me samples I was delight to try them.  Now that I have tried them I am addicted and can’t wait to get my hands on more.

Danielle Crispy Fruit Chips have a number of flavors and I tried 5 of them:

  • Wild Taro Chips
  • Sweet Jackfruit Chips
  • Roasted Coconut Chips
  • Sweet Mango Chips
  • Tangy Pineapple Chips

All of these chips were amazing and are a great snack when you are looking for something sweet and crunchy.  The Sweet Mango Chips and the Sweet Jackfruit where my two favorites, however I enjoyed all of them.  I was pleasantly surprise to find that the Roasted Coconut Chips were creamy and sweet.

They are All Natural, have No Preservatives and No Trans Fat; the fruits and veggies are then sprayed with nonhydrogenated palm oil and “vacuum fried,” a method that, according to the company, allows the products to retain their flavor and absorb little oil. A 28 gram serving there are about (depending on fruit/veggie you get) 120 calories, 3.5 grams of fat, 5 grams of fiber, and 2 grams of protein.
