Giveaway – Win 2 Dozen Assorted Snacks from Clif Kids, 2 Winners!

April 9, 2011 By

This giveaway is closed. Congratulations to the winners, comment #8 from Amanda and comment #76 from Amy!

Edited to add: I’m thrilled that PRIZEY chose this giveaway as an Editor’s Pick! I list all my giveaways on PRIZEY and every once in a while they honor me by picking one of mine to give special promotion to on their site. I highly recommend PRIZEY as a place to list your giveaways!

Clif Bar‘s philosophy is that good food provides health, joy, and energy, and that food made right can make the world a better place. Their Clif Kid products are created to give kids fantastic tasting food with the nutrition they need for their active, growing bodies. When a package arrived from Clif with their organic ZBars and organic Twisted Fruit, my kids dove right in!

Clif Kid ZBars have no hydrogenated oils, no high fructose corn syrup, no preservatives, and no artificial flavors. What they DO have is 9 grams of whole grains, real fruit, organic ingredients, 12 essential vitamins and minerals, and six flavors that kids love!  The flavors are Blueberry, Chocolate Brownie, Chocolate Chip, Honey Graham, Peanut Butter, and S’Mores. Kaitlyn’s favorite is Chocolate Brownie!

Clif Kid Twisted Fruit is real fruit twisted into a thick rope, and each piece equals a serving of fruit! Made with organic fruit puree and juice, Twisted Fruit has no processed sugars, no artificial flavors or preservatives, and is an excellent source of Vitamin C. Moms want their kids to eat fruit, but sometimes it’s just too messy or hard to take on the go. Clif Kid Twisted Fruit is easy to eat and is great for a lunchbox or backpack! The six great flavors are Grape, Mixed Berry, Pineapple, Sour Apple, Strawberry, and Tropical Twist. Kaitlyn LOVES the Strawberry flavor and I have to admit, so do I!

Clif Kid ZBars and Twisted Fruit would make a delicious, fun, and healthy addition to an Easter Basket!

    Healthy Chef Creations

    March 6, 2011 By

    PhotobucketHealthy Chef Creations delivers all-natural, organic cuisine created by spa chef and nutrition expert John Procacci, who is also known as “The Healthy Chef”. You can get everything from diet meals to meals for expecting and new Moms delivered fresh right to your door.  I checked out the website at their request, and my first impression is that it’s a beautifully done site that is very easy to navigate. The food photos are exquisite and made me hungry!

    I took a look at the breakfast, lunch and dinner menus for both adults and children – that’s right, you can even order organic meals for your kids!  From free range breakfast meats to organic fruits and snacks, what I like best about the choices is that it’s not “fancy” food.  Organic waffles and egg white omelets for breakfast, chicken salad with fruit and nuts for lunch, pot roast for dinner,  carrot cake for dessert – and all made with natural ingredients.  Healthy Chef Creations uses a whole food diet, meaning nothing processed, no refined sugars or artificial colors, just food packed with vitamins and minerals.

    Other items available include vegetarian meals, foods kids will find familiar like baked chicken fingers and sloppy joes, soups, gluten free, vegan, non-dairy cheese made from sheep’s milk, and foods with no added salt. The impression I get from reading the “About” page and the testimonials is that this is food made with care, and that it also tastes great. Check out HealthyChefCreations.com to learn more!

    TABASCO Original Red Enhances the Flavor of Food

    February 1, 2011 By

    This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of TABASCO® Original Red. All opinions are 100% mine.

    TABASCO® Original Red is always in my kitchen pantry because my husband loves it! He puts it on tacos, pizza, even on hot wings. Tabasco Original Red is more than just “hot” sauce though. With just three simple ingredients – salt, red pepper and vinegar – and a three year aging process, Tabasco Original Red is a hot sauce that enhances the flavor of food.

    If you’re planning a Super Bowl party, Tabasco has a Game-Day Party Menu with tons of great recipes! Pizza, chili, wings, dips, and finger foods can all be enhanced with the flavor of Tabasco Original Red. Here’s a recipe for chili that sounds really good!

    Super-Good Chili

    • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef chuck
    • 1 large onion, chopped
    • 2 garlic cloves, minced
    • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
    • 1 (12-ounce) can diced tomatoes
    • 2 (16-ounce) cans pinto beans, drained and rinsed
    • 1 (16-ounce) can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
    • 1 (12-ounce) can or bottle beer
    • 1 (4-ounce) can diced green chilies
    • 1 tablespoon Original TABASCO® brand Pepper Sauce
    • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
    • Shredded Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese, optional

    Heat oil in 5-quart Dutch oven or saucepot over medium heat. Add beef and cook until well browned on all sides. Remove to bowl with slotted spoon.

    Add onion and garlic to drippings remaining in skillet; cook over medium heat until tender, about 5 minutes. Return meat to Dutch oven; stir in cumin; cook 1 minute.

    Stir in diced tomatoes with their liquid, pinto beans, red kidney beans, beer, green chilies, TABASCO® Sauce and salt. Heat to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 20 minutes to blend flavors, stirring occasionally. Serve with cheese, if desired.

    Makes 6 servings.
