Morningstar Farms Review


Morningstar Farms sent me a coupon to try one of their products to review. I chose the Tomato & Basil Pizza Burger.



10/10

It was SO delicious and the flavor was awesome. I love the little bits of cheese that are inside the burger as well.

I have also had their Chik patties, Mushroom Burger, and Veggie Burger before. They are all wonderful and taste so good! Not to mention that they are so easy to make - just pop 'em in the microwave and YUM!

Thank you Morningstar Farms for making great food!

Skinny Crisps Review



Skinny Crisps Low Carb & Gluten Free Gourmet Crackers

Skinny Crisps was kind enough to send me some samples of their crackers to try and review.

A little bit about Skinny Crisps:
They are a nutritious. cracker that combines great taste with gluten free ingredients and one half a net carb per cracker. They are high in fiber and have little effect on blood sugar levels.
Visit the website here: www.skinnycrisps.com

Here is my rankings in order from my most favorite to least favorite...

Cinnamon
10/10
These tasted like dessert! They were super tasty! YUM!

Say Cheese
10/10
These had a similarity to Cheese-Its. They were yummy.

Plain Jane
10/10
I compare these to Wheat Thins. These were good by themselves, but if you wanted to eat them with peanut butter or cheese they would be perfect for that!

Toasty Onion
10/10
I love onions so I thought these had a unique flavor for a cracker! YUM!

Seeded
7/10
These weren't bad, but they definitely needed something to go with it. They were too plain by themselves.

White Sesame
7/10
These weren't bad, but they definitely needed something to go with it. They were too plain by themselves.

Brownie Crisps
My boyfriend tried these for me, since I don't eat chocolate.
3/10
He tried some of the other flavors after and said they were good, but brownie just wasn't his favorite.

:)

I love that these crackers tasted so good, but I love even more that they are super healthy for you!

Thank you Skinny Crisps for letting me try your delicious crackers!

3 Things Wednesday...

I've been super busy lately, so this post will be short and sweet!


I finally got to try the new Wendy's Berry Almond Chicken Salad.
YUMMY!
Strawberries+Blueberries+Chicken=Can't go wrong!


Robbie & Myrtle's family gave me 140 books to start my library for my future classroom! I am SO incredibly grateful!


Little Blake loves to tackle me, and I just happened to snap one of them on camera! HAHA!

Cheese on my mind...

I am a member of the the ALL YOU Magazine Reality Checkers, which sends coupons, freebies, and asks your opinion on things every now and then. I got an email telling about a contest to create a recipe with Borden's new Singles Sensations Cheeses. The winner gets $1000! They even sent a coupon for a free package of their new cheese so we could create the recipe. I jumped at this chance!

I chose the 3 Cheese Italiano flavor. Which combines Provolone, Asiago, and Parmesan cheese together. I decided to try for the healthy recipe and make something that a lot of people would never try! So, what did I send in?

...

Yup! You guessed it! My cheesy jam sandwich! But, I got a little creative with the recipe title when I sent it in... I present to you...

Cheesy Jam Grand Slam


I highly doubt I will win, but hey, I got a free package of DELICIOUS cheese (which you need to try by the way) and had a fun time participating in something new!
:)


Since I clearly love cheese, I have to share another snack that I love that is EASY PEASY LEMON SQUEEZY to make...

All you need is TWO THINGS.
1. some kind of tortilla/wrap
2. Laughing Cow Cheese


Just spread the cheese all over.
My favorite flavor is the Garlic & Herb.

Yes, I cut it to make it look like a pizza.
It's more fun to eat that way!
:)


What is your favorite recipe/snack with CHEEEEEEEEEESE?
