ConAgra Foods - Life Choice Bar Review


Here is a little bit about Life Choice Bars from their website:

Look for Life Choice™ nutrition bars in the cereal aisle at select Walmart stores.
Nowadays, shopping for nutrition bars can be intimidating… and downright confusing! With so many choices available—high fiber, low carb, gluten-free, fat-free, sugar-free, etc.—it’s no wonder people have a hard time determining which bar is best for them and their bodies.
At Life Choice, our goal is simple: to take the guesswork out of choosing the right nutrition bar for you and your health needs.
We offer a variety of great-tasting nutrition bars, organized into four distinct categories—wellness, protein, energy, and meal replacement—so that it’s easy for you to select the perfect snack that meets your nutritional needs.

My review:
20/10!

OH MY GOODNESS. I tried the Peanut Butter Extreme Protein bar for my review.  IT WAS INCREDIBLE!
When they say Peanut Butter Extreme, they mean business! 
This bar was so peanut buttery and delicious! It was PERFECT for after my workouts to fuel my body properly!

Mini Pops Review


Mini Pops sent me 4 flavors of their products to review!

Here's a little info about Mini Pops:

Sorghum is the 5th most harvested cereal grain on the globe. In the USA, over 8 million acres of land (see below)  is devoted to sorghum farming which happens to require far less water to grow than corn.
There are several different sub-types of sorghum, but the sorghum used for Mini Pops is specifically grown to be of the highest quality and free of anypesticides or genetic modification. And whereas places like India, Africa and China produce sorghum in large quantities, the Sorghum used for Mini Pops are farmed right here in the USA.



**********************************************************************************************

I gotta admit, at first, when the company asked me to review their product, I thought it was just going to be popcorn in a mini bag, but I was wrong! It actually looked like MINIATURE POPCORN!! Check out the picture of it in my hand below! 


It took a minute to get used to the size, but the taste was spot on! 

I give this product an 8/10.
The reason is because it was a little difficult to eat with my hands, so it wasn't the most convenient little snack... I had to use a spoon! haha 

The Sea Salt flavor was a little bland, but I liked the Butter and White Cheddar flavors! I didn't eat the chili flavor because I don't like hot stuff! haha I'm a sissy!

Fellowship of Christian Athletes Leadership Camp

After reading your comments in my Super Seven Surprise Giveaway, I noticed that a lot of you wanted to see more posts about my everyday life. Well, I am excited to share some fun info from the Fellowship of Christian Athletes Leadership Camp that I was fortunate to serve as a huddle leader at last week.

I attended the camp back when I was going into my senior year of high school. It was a different experience being on the other side of it this time. I really enjoyed being a huddle leader! Since it was my first year as a huddle leader AND they needed some people to co-lead, I volunteered. I was paired up with Madison. She was great! We got along well and we led a group of middle school girls.


It was so much fun! Each day we had morning and evening worship, and had some incredible speakers! We also had morning and afternoon competitions playing various sports. On Saturday, we went on a Faith Building Trip. There were groups of about 4 or 5 people and we walked door to door around the city and asked people questions about their faith and tried to spark conversation about God. My group only had 3 people answer the door out of the 15+ doors we knocked on, but it was still a good time. 


I definitely enjoyed being super goofy (like I always do). The girls were so fun and they really liked it the goofier I was..haha. 


One thing I really noticed throughout the camp was how much they LOOKED UP to me as a leader. It just emphasized the fact that I am always being watched by somebody, so I need to make sure that I do a solid job of being a light for Christ! I don't ever want somebody to stumble or have doubts about Christianity because of my actions or words. 




I made some amazing friends with some of the huddle leaders! I hope we continue to stay in touch and keep each other accountable in our walks with God. 


Jared was a huddle leader in charge of high school boys. We didn't get to spend a lot of time together at camp, but we definitely had fun teasing and picking on each other when we passed by... 
Water bottle splashing fights were a must! ;) It was so awesome to see Jared leading those guys. He is such a wonderful man of God and I'm so blessed to have him in my life. We both pray that we keep God as NUMBER ONE in our lives and in our relationship ALWAYS! 



So there you have it... what have YOU been up to lately?

A new "Kelsey Kreation" - Strawberry & Banana Cake

I love eating my Banana Nut Bread for One, but I had an idea that I just HAD to try...

thus, the HEALTHY cake was born!


It's SO simple and so HEALTHY!

Ingredients:
Strawberries -N- Cream instant oatmeal pack
1 banana
Pinch of Baking Powder

Directions:
Mash banana until it's almost liquid-y
Pour oatmeal and pinch of baking powder into a bowl and stir.
Add mashed banana to bowl and stir until it's mixed together well.
Add mixture to a mini-loaf pan (that's been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray first)
Bake at 350* for 15 minutes
(I like to broil mine for 2 minutes at the end just to give it a little something extra, but you don't have to!)

EAT!!!


DO YOU HAVE ANY HEALTHY "DESSERT" recipes??? 
I'd love to hear about them!!!
