My Recent Favorite Healthy Products

Hi! It’s Thursday and I am PUMPED! Why? Because I am flying home to Boston this weekend to see my family and do some wedding planning. I am especially excited to snuggle my 3-month old nephew and see a few of my very best friends.

In other happy news, today I am going to share some of my recent favorite products with you guys. While, some of these are not necessarily new on the market, they’re all fairly new to me, and I really think you all will love them, too!

So without further ado, let’s get to it!

 

1. Tarrazu Coffee from Trader Joe’s

This is my absolute favorite coffee! It’s a medium-dark roast that is incredibly smooth and all around delicious. I seriously look forward to having it first thing in the morning. If you’re a medium-blend coffee drinker, this one is a must!

2. Wild Zora Jerky Bars

I discovered these mini jerky bars at a local health foods store and I LOVE them! The ingredients are super clean and the flavors are all very unique — like lamb with spinach, rosemary and turmeric. Each one is around 100 calories with 6-9 grams of protein, so they’re the perfect snack for in between meals.

3. Wallaby Nonfat Greek Yogurt

I can’t say enough good things about this yogurt. It’s creamy, smooth and delicious. We buy it in the big 32 oz. size because we go through it so quickly. I like to get the plain version so that I can add my own fruit and granola.

4. Peanut Butter RX Bars

RX BARS! How did it take me so long to discover you!? I love having healthy protein bars in my purse with me at all times because I get hungry often. You can usually find me at 3PM pulling one of these bad boys out of my purse while I am in the car or at my desk.

This flavor is my favorite — it’s so peanut buttery and contains 12 grams of protein that all comes from peanut butter and egg whites. A lot of mainstream protein bars use whey or soy protein and both upset my stomach, so I was really excited to find these.

5. Califia Farms Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk

My quest to find the best almond milk officially ends NOW. This Unsweetened Vanilla Califia Farms Almond Milk is the absolute best. It’s creamy, tastes delicious, and it doesn’t have any added carrageenans or bad stuff. I also use it to make almond milk lattes in my Nespresso machine and, unlike most other almond milks, it gets very frothy — just the way I like it!

6. Dave’s Killer Bread Thin-Sliced Good Seed Bread

Okay, okay, I know I’ve talked about this bread before, but you guys, I’m so hooked. Dave’s Killer Bread Thin-Sliced variety is great if you’re watching your carbs or if you want to make a sandwich, but you’re not looking to eat a TON of bread.

7. Applegate Gluten-Free Chicken Nuggets

Is it strange that a girl in her mid-20s is buying frozen chicken nuggets? You can be honest, I can take it.

I am not sure what inspired me to grab these off the shelf the first time, but by now we’ve tried all of the Applegate chicken nuggets/tenders. Travis and I both agree that the gluten-free variety is (surprisingly) the best. The coating on the outside is super crunchy and flavorful.  We keep these nuggets in our freezer as a backup for when we’re home on weekends and don’t want to make or pick up lunch. Plus, I know I can trust Applegate to only use good quality chicken with nothing sneaky added in. If you have kids or if you just want a quick, healthy backup in your freezer, try these!

8. Bob’s Red Mill Organic Coconut Sugar

How did I not start using coconut sugar earlier!?!? Coconut sugar is unrefined and low glycemic index, but the best part is that you can easily substitute it for any other sugar in a recipe and never know the difference. This is now the only sugar I have on hand.

 

Disclaimer: I was not paid to talk about any of these products. I regularly use and love all of them.
