Obviously I’m a huge chia seed fan, and why wouldn’t I be? They are a nutritional powerhouse with virtually no flavor making them oh so versatile! I really can’t get enough of this superfood. Well, Last November the makers of Drink Chia! sent me a variety of their drinks and my hubby and I tested them out and what can I say? We LOVED them!! They come in four tasty flavors; honey-suckle pear, strawberry citrus, mango tangerine and lemon blueberry. My favorite was the mango tangerine, and my husbands the strawberry citrus. We drank this beverage before and after our runs, my cycle classes and our workouts and thought it was a great way to hydrate. As of right now you can find Drink Chia! online or at your local Whole Foods!
I’m always looking for Chia products or different ways to utilize the super-seed so when I found these yummy little 100 calorie bars at Sprout’s Market I got super excited! My favorite flavor so far is the coconut one as I love everything and anything coconut!
As a child my mother always had okra pickles in the house which sounds odd but they are incredibly delicious. So when I came across theses okra chips at Sprout’s Market I had to buy them. To my suprise they are actually pretty good, especially when dipped in hummus!
Who doesn’t love cookies? This cookie is pretty big and perfect when broken into 2 or 4 servings as it is kind of high in calories. But what cookie has 15 grams of protein and tastes just like a homemade, fresh out of the oven unhealthy cookie? This one! I like to have a piece whenever I’m having that cookie craving or after a workout. You can find this cookie online although they do sell them at 24 Hour Fitness.
Hurray for 100% Whole Wheat Flatout Flatbread! Flatbreads are SO versatile…I’ve done so much with mine. From sandwiches, to breakfast wraps to healthy pizzas and desserts. At only 100 calories per wrap you can’t go wrong! You can find these at most grocery stores. Costco has them in bulk for a great price!
I first tried Zico’s chocolate coconut water back in October at the Nike Women’s Marathon in San Francisco and loved it. I’m still more likely to drink the natural flavor but the chocolate version is hubby approved! For the best price go to Costco!
