Chobani WTFlavor Giveaway (CLOSED)

First things first: Congratulations to the winner of my Nutrex Hawaii Spirulina Giveaway, Jasmine B!
Be sure to check your email so I can get your prize to you!

Second thin: because I love you guys so much, I have another giveaway for you!

Chobani sent me a huge case of  unlabeled “classified” 60z cups filled with their new flavors for me to sample. For their new campaign #WTFlavor, they wanted me to identify the new flavors in a blind taste test! I love Chobani’s creative marketing & social media teams! They are absolutely hilarious, witty, great writers, and such a joy to work with. The only problem with this campaign? Probably not a great idea for someone who has numerous food allergies haha. Talk about yogurt roulette! Never fear I talked to my friends at CHO and was guided on which cups to stay away from. Those flavors went to my sister to enjoy haha.

If you follow me on Instagram you probably saw my yogurt roulette photos as I tried to identify the flavs, and ohhhhhh was I excited (especially) about one of them! I had been secretly campaigning for the Key Lime flavor ever since it made it’s debut in the Chobani Flips. I would Instagram, Tweet, Facebook, and Blog about how much I loved the Key Lime flavor. Basically anything to get it through to CHO that I was completely obsessed with this flavor. Low and behold, the third “classified” cup that I tried was KEY LIME!!! Yesss The Greek (yogurt) Gods had answered!

Miso Tempeh Wrap

Don’t forget you still have until Midnight tonight (July 11) to enter for your chance to win some Spirulina & other goodies from Nutrex Hawaii!

Speaking of Hawaii, my grandparents go to Hawaii every year for my grandma’s birthday on July 6th. This year, my grammy celebrated with her friends at a raw vegan restaurant called Maui Kombucha in their “Eat More Rabbit Food” shirts and Carrot Logo Leggings!
I died when she sent me these photos! Isn’t she the cutest?!

Eat More Rabbit Food MauiFrom left to right: My grammy Gail (76), Barb (86), and Carol (72)

Barb’s husband Don is 100% vegan, so she is pretty much vegan/vegetarian.
As for my grandma and Carol, they’re big time veggie lovers!
My grandma said that the owner brought out free kombucha shooters for the table when they arrived haha, how fun!

 

I loveee food blogs, especially when I cannot decide on what to make for dinner. Yes, bloggers read blogs too! While browsing around, I was totally inspired by (and drooling over) the lovely Kathy Patalsky’s recipe for Kale Avocado Wraps w/ Spicy Miso-Dipped Tempeh. I knew I had to try it, so I made all of the ingredients in proportion with the Rabbit Food Pyramid guidelines, and dinner was served! I love showing you guys how easy it is to make other recipes Rabbit Food Pyramid friendly!

Miso Tempeh Wraps
Miso Tempeh Wraps
Miso Tempeh WrapsI even made the Miso Tempeh again the next day, subtracted the wrap, and added 1/2 cup of cooked brown rice to make a salad/rice bowl!

Miso Tempeh WrapsSince I didn’t have miso paste on hand to make Kathy’s Chipotle Miso Dressing I used a shortcut Low-Fat Miso Sesame Seed Dressing by Galeos. Not exactly the same as her dressage, but the results were excellent, and the nutrition stats are awesome! 1 Tbsp Galeos Miso Sesame Seed Dressing = 25 calories, 1g fat, 4g carbs, .5g sugar, and only contains 8 ingredients that you can actually pronounce! Not too shabby!

Miso Tempeh Wraps
Recipe adapted from Kathy Patalsky
Serves 1

1 medium whole wheat or sprouted grain tortilla
3oz tempeh
1 1/2 cups kale
1/4 cup chopped tomato
1/4 cup sliced red onion
1/4 avocado, sliced
2 Tbsp Galeos Low-Fat Miso Sesame Seed Dressing, divided
a pinch of ground chipotle
pinch of fresh ground pepper

Rinse and dry chopped kale. Massage with 1 Tablespoon of miso dressing. Chop tomato and onion and add to the kale, set aside. Slice avocado and set aside. Lightly spray a skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Cook tempeh in 1 Tablespoon of miso dressing over medium heat and sprinkle with a pinch of pepper and chipotle. Allow the tempeh to cook on both sides for about 2 minutes each. Transfer the tempeh to the tortilla and add kale, tomato, onion, and avocado. Wrap tightly together, cut in half, and enjoy!

Nutrex Hawaii Spirulina All In My Shake + Giveaway (CLOSED)

The following post is sponsored by FitFluential LLC on behalf of Nutrex Hawaii.

Spirulina, so good even Justin Timberlake sings about it!

– What is Spirulina?
Spirulina is algae! Yes, that means from sea!

– What’s the hype?
For starters, Hawaiian Spirulina is a complete protein, meaning it has all the essential acids. Excellent for vegetarians! It’s tallies up to 60-65% protein (compared to fish, which is up to 35% protein).

1 Tsp (3g) of Spirulina contains a rainbow of nutrients which is why Nutrex Hawaii wants you to #ColorYourDiet:

  • Orange: Beta carotene for immune system support
  • Yellow: Zeaxanthin for eye and brain health
  • Green: Chlorophyll for anti-toxin benefits and iron content
  • Blue: Phycocyanin for inflammatory balance
  • More than 94 trace minerals & elements.
  • More antioxidant power then 5 servings of fruits and vegetables!

In addition to being an excellent source of protein, Hawaiian Spirulina has been scientifically shown to support a healthy immune system.
More than 200 scientific studies document its broad range of health benefits. Many people have also reported increased energy levels after regular consumption of Spiruilna!

– How is Nutrex Hawaii Spirulina Pacifica grown?
Nutrex Hawaii is located on the pristine Kona coast on the Big Island of Hawaii. Their farm draws on the natural resources that surround them –
abundant warm sunlight, pure deep ocean water and 100% fresh water drawn from Hawaiian aquifers to cultivate Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica and BioAstin Hawaiian Astaxanthin.

Nutrex Hawaii Spirulina

I love adding spirulina to my smoothies, it’s a super easy way to add nutrients. The smoothie recipe below has a great balance of whole grains, produce, and healthy fat. It’s a huge energy booster with tons of healthy benefits, yet it’s extremely delicious! Plus it is really hearty and filling, you won’t be hungry again for hours!

Nutrex Hawaii Spirulina
Nutrex Hawaii Spirulina
Nutrex Hawaii Spirulina
Nutrex Hawaii SpirulinaSuper Spirulina Smoothie
Serves 1

3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 cup frozen spinach (or 2 cups fresh)
1 frozen banana
1/4 cup rolled oats
2 Tbsp unsalted almonds
2 Tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut
1 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 Tbsp chia seeds
1 tsp Nutrex Hawaii Spirulina Pacifica powder
1/2 tsp vanilla
6 drops liquid stevia or other natural sweetener
6 ice cubes

Combine all ingredients in a high powered blender and blend until smooth. Enjoy cold.
Note: If you do not have a high powered blender such as Vitamix or Blendtec, start by blending the hard ingredients (i.e. almonds, oats, and spinach) with the almond milk to ensure they are thoroughly blended. Then gradually add the other ingredients. You could use a Tbsp more of almond milk or water to get the blender running smoothly because this smoothie is rather thick.
Side Note: If your blender cannot handle almonds at all, substitute for 1 Tbsp of unsalted almond butter.

Nutrex Hawaii SpirulinaNutrex Hawaii also offers Spirulina Pacifica in tablet form. I prefer the powder because I like adding it in smoothies and to some of my kale chips recipes!
Be sure to checkout their BioAstin antioxidant supplement for joint and tendon health, skin, brain, & eye health! Since I have tons of food allergies, I love addicting this to my diet for added benefits!

Two Ingredient Coconut Macaroons

Congratulations to the winner of my Love True Naturals Beauty Box Giveaway: Melanie H.!
Be sure to check your email!

Motivation Monday: “What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.”

My website had some technical difficulties this morning, so I apologize for the inconvenience. I’m so happy it’s back up and running!

I’m obsessed with desserts and after making some toasted coconut this weekend, I though to myself; I NEED to make healthy coconut  macaroons! Most macaroons contain tons of added sugar and even full fat condensed milk, so I took to the kitchen to make a skinny bunny version with only 2 ingredients! Crispy and toasted on the outside with a lightly sweet chewy center!

This recipe is gluten-free, paleo friendly, clean, and made with healthy plant based fats!
If you’re following my Rabbit Food Pyramid: 4 Macaroons (2 Tbsp of shredded coconut) count as 1 serving of healthy plant based fats! Excellent topping for your Banana Nicecream!

Makes 14 macaroons
(about 3.5 servings)

1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1 egg white

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk one egg white and then stir into the shredded coconut until well combined. Spray a cooking sheet with nonstick cooking spray (I used coconut oil spray, but any will do). Using a 1/2 Tablespoon measuring spoon, scoop the mixture, press into the spoon (to keep the mixture together), and then place onto the cooking sheet. Once all of the mixture has been scooped into 1/2 Tbsp balls, place cooking sheet in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes until they become a light golden brown. If only the bottom halves of macaroons brown, turn the oven to broil and cook for 1 minute until the tops turn golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
Note: Watch the macaroons while baking because they tend to burn quickly.

What’s your favorite healthy dessert to make?
