Country Crock Veggie Shopping Kit and $25 Gift Card (Review & Giveaway)

countrycrockspread

Winner: Kristie If there's one area I fall short on when preparing meals, it's with the veggie portion. I tend to focus most on the main meal, and since both my daughter and husband are reluctant to eat the steamed veggies I enjoy, I have to get a little more creative than steamed broccoli or green beans. In my veggie shopping kit from Country Crock, I found a recipe card that appealed to me for Roasted Cauliflower. With only six ingredients, it was simple and straightforward but I knew by … [Read more...]

JVLBrgrplt

If there's any time to be tired of traditional burgers, it's summer time! How many different ways can you eat a burger? Well Johnsonville has revamped the burger with all new Brat and Italian Sausage Patties. I've been craving sausage and peppers, but it's a messy sandwich to eat. Now it's in burger form -- yay! Sad for me, I haven't been able to find these. Apparently everybody loves them, because at my Walmart, this is what their spot looks like. Sheesh, I guess you've gotta … [Read more...]

WIN IT! Pillsbury Simply Summer Brunch Gift Basket ($115 Value)

PILLSBURY_LOGO_Final.jpg

The lucky winner - Katherine! Growing up my family didn’t break bread--well, without breaking bread.  There is nothing like fresh baked loaf to go along with a meal, but I don’t have the time to bake bread daily or visit the bakery. I absolutely love the Pillsbury Simply breads and biscuits.  Not only are they free of artificial ingredients and trans fats, but they make life easy.  I keep a few on hand in my refrigerator and all I need to allot for is 20 to 30 minutes of baking … [Read more...]

New I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!® Products (Review and Giveaway)

icantbelieveitsnotbutterlogo.jpg

Winner: Kelly Ann T. In the past, I have tried to quit butter on toast.  You’d think that would be fairly simple and easy to do, but I definitely missed that buttery creaminess and added flavor it provides for not only toast but muffins, pancakes, scones, and bagels. For year’s now, I’ve used I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!®. It’s the closest thing to butter without actually being butter.  With half the calories and 78% less saturated fat, it’s my favorite alternative to … [Read more...]

SANS Natural Diet Soda – Review and Giveaway

sans-logo.jpg

Winner: kathy pease Call it soda, pop, or soda-pop, it’s just plain not-good-for-you.  I’m not a big fan of it personally.  Whether I drink the diet or regular versions of it, it feels like I’m pouring acid down my throat.  It stings!  It’s just not natural, all those bubbles and chemicals. Mostly I drink water, but on occasion I get the yen for a bubbly drink like soda.  When I do, I opt for diet.  But I’ve pretty much made it my mission to avoid artificial sweeteners once … [Read more...]

FRESCHETTA® By the Slice (Review & Giveaway)

New_Freschetta_Logo2.jpg

Congrats to Mary! When I was young and my mother asked what I wanted to eat for dinner on my birthday, the answer was always "Pizza!".  It was one of my favorite foods back then, and it still is today.  We have two restaurants we like to order from, and both of them, unfortunately, are between 10 and 15 miles from our house.  So it's not a convenient dinner when you consider all of that driving that needs to be done. It's much easier to pull a pie out from the freezer. We've … [Read more...]

Barista Prima Coffeehouse–a new collection of dark-roast K-Cups

bp.jpg

Recently, one of my favorite coffee K-Cups was discontinued.  It was the Dark Roast Hazelnut blend from Green Mountain, and I nearly cried when I found out it has been discontinued.  And yes, I am just slightly addicted to caffeine. I was delighted to hear that Green Mountain Coffee Roasters has just introduced a new collection called Barista Prima Coffeehouse for those of us who enjoy a rich, dark roast. And I most certainly do – especially for my morning coffee ritual.  I … [Read more...]
