Mint Chocolate Chunk Quest Bar Review!

Image
No one thought it could be done but Quest perfected yet another delicious flavor, meet the new member of the Quest bar family Mint Chocolate Chunk !  When I heard that Quest was coming out with a new flavor I just had to try it so I ordered myself a box from their website.  I couldn't wait to try it out being that I workout a lot and protein bars are my go to snack of choice because they are a great on the go snack, keep me going and packed with protein as well as delicious.   The new protein bar from Quest Nutrition reminded me of one of my favorite Girl Scout cookies which is the thin mint and here's why.When you carefully tear open the wrapper you see the most beautiful protein bar seriously ever made with mint chocolate chunks throughout. Before you take your first bite you smell the pungent mint aroma and then your mouth starts to water so then you take a bite first you get a mouthful of chocolaty creamy goodness with a refreshing mint flavor...

Angelicbakehouse review !

Image
It all began 24 years ago when Jenny and James Mariano met in high school but wasn't until 2009 when they started making delicious bread together. In order to support not only their family but their passion for health food they purchased a sprouted bakery near Milwaukee that was in dire need of a makeover. Over the next few years they began promoting the benefits of their delicious products in their community and the word got out just as fast as the mouth watering aromas that were coming from their bakery. Their devoted local fans became national fans, the company that started out little began to blossom almost five-fold since they made it their own.  Angelic bakehouse uses non gmo grains and bakes them to perfection in their dough giving them a nutritiously nutty taste and texture !  Health benefits: Made with non GMO ingredients  Sweetened with pure honey sourced in the USA  Contains no artificial preservatives, artificial sweeteners and fats...

Golden Girl Gourmet Granola Review

Image
The Golden Girl Granola company began with the O'Kelly family who shares a passion for gourmet foods. Catherine was driven to sell her hand sewn bags at the farmers market and brought along doughnuts that they fried up that morning.   At the end of the day they realized they would need a product that had a longer shelf life to be able to sell at the farmers market.  Jacquie thought it was in their best interest to try making granola, so the next week they did just that and baked six deliciously crunchy varieties of granola and bagged them up into ziploc baggies with an image of a little blond girl which was a mix of Jacquie and her childhood idol Pippi Longstocking which they called " The Golden Girl". During the summer of 2008 the farmers market expanded in which they added three more markets, Catherine and Jacquie came home during the summer to help with the baking. Catherine got busy in the kitchen and began to bake and also sell breads, scones and c...
