Recent Review Round Up

Today we wanted to share a round-up of our latest reviews from some awesome companies! We were blessed to receive these products. We were not compensated monetarily, just sent free samples. All opinions are our own.

WHAT ARE BROAD BEANS? 
The best-kept secret in healthy snacking! Enjoyed around the world for their delicious flavor and satisfying crunch, broad beans are a nutrition powerhouse packed with protein and fiber.
ENLIGHTENED CRISPS
Are lightly roasted in sunflower oil, sprinkled with sea salt, and seasoned to perfection. So go ahead... spill the beans.

We cannot get enough of these delicious crisps! They are super tasty and we wouldn't have even known we were eating beans if you just sat them in front of us to try. They have a crunch like a cracker and the flavors are JUST RIGHT!  We were very impressed that they packed so much protein for feeling like we were "eating crackers" with our meals. We enjoyed these during a picnic at the golf course one afternoon as well as our separate lunches throughout the week and are the perfect TV snack too!
They even have two sweet flavors and we enjoyed mixing them in our smoothie bowls! TALK ABOUT YUM!     
*They also have PROTEIN PACKED ICECREAM!!!! It's extremely delicious and doesn't have crazy weird ingredients!!! WIN WIN!!!*

Love Grown has a special edition Bats and Boos cereal just in time for Halloween. Jared LOVED them, but I made sure he saved some for our niece and nephew who are visiting this weekend. 

This month's FitSnack Box is FILLED with chocolate goodies and Jared couldn't have been more excited! He loves chocolate and is super excited any time we are sent chocolate stuff because he knows that he doesn't have to share with me! haha 

Purely Inspired has launched BRAND NEW PRODUCTS!!!! We immediately made some protein waffles with the new WHEY protein and were happy that it includes two servings of greens as well! We have been adding the powdered peanut butter and organic greens to our smoothies and they are quite tasty! 

Jared and I have a passion for peanut butter and we are always thinking of new ways to eat it. This month, I created a sweet Chex Mix type snack that we named, Peanut Butter Protein Crumble. 


Ingredients:
1 cup natural peanut butter
1 scoop Purely Inspired Protein Powder (we used Berry flavor for this batch)
~3 cups of Sprouted Oat Honey O's (cheerios would work as well)
1/4 cup honey 

Directions
1. Pour peanut butter, protein, and honey into a pot on the stovetop on medium heat and keep stirring until everything mixes well. 
2. Pour cereal into a large bowl.
3. Pour peanut butter mixture over cereal and mix well. 
4. Pour into dish and freeze. 

It's super easy and super tasty! We have been eating this by the handful and also like to add it into  yogurt as well.   

Purely Inspired is providing us with protein in exchange for recipes each month. We are not compensated for these posts, just sent product.
