A New Morning Favorite
Sometimes, a poptart is the only thing that will hit the spot in the morning. Unfortunately, those commercial poptarts contain tons of crazy ingredients which probably include hydrogenated oil.
Enter Nature’s Path Organic Toaster Pastries. Recently, several new kinds were introduced to the line. Flavors include Cherry Pomegran, Chocolate, Brown Sugar Maple Cinn and unfrosted Brown Sugar Maple Cinn, bringing the line to a total of twelve different flavors. Read more about these delicious treats.
I have seen all of the new flavors at Whole Foods so you should be able to get your hands on a box. Two boxes of the chocolate kind have made their way through my house already without me even getting an opportunity to try one. However, I don’t know if this is because they are really delicious or because someone in my house thought that no one was eating them and decided to finish them off so they didn’t “go to waste.”
Nature’s Path has also added some information on their website about their Pie-Oh-My! line. Pie-Oh-My! are basically just little microwaveable pies that contain two servings of whole grains and two-thirds of a serving of fruit. They are all natural and partially organic. Flavors include apple, cherry, wild berry and pineapple. Definitely a good choice for people watching their weight who want a nice portion controlled slice of pie.
New Products from Seeds of Change
Seeds of Change always seem to be adding to their line. Recently, they revealed two new frozen entrees, Athenian Orzo and Moroccan Lentil Tagine, and they released a line of organic chocolate bars with flavors like Bayano Dark Chocolate with Cacao Nibs and Cinnamon Essence and Santa Catarina Dark Chocolate with Mango, Toasted Coconut and Cashews. The new products don’t even stop there. They ALSO have two new pasta sauces, Sicilian Spicy Eggplant and Vodka Americano.
Everything I have tried from Seeds of Change, I have enjoyed except for maybe their Seven Grain Pilaf with vegetables and herb sauce. I had that yesterday and it was kind of.. scary.
Anyway, a great thing about Seeds of Change is their frozen entrees are usually close to 100% organic! There are very few brands out there offering frozen entrees with that many organic ingredients.
Amy’s single serve pesto pizza
I was really happy when I found Amy’s single serve pesto pizza in the frozen section at Whole Foods today. I said I would write a review for it, and I plan on writing full reviews (with pictures and ratings) very soon, but before I do, I just want to say that it was an awesome pizza! It tasted surprisingly fresh and the crust was perfectly crunchy. It also only took ten minutes to cook! Less than 500 calories too! It was a perfect quick lunch for an otherwise blah Monday.
Amy’s Kids Meals
I just checked my email and happily found a newsletter from Amy’s Kitchen. Since I am completely obsessed with the company, of course I subscribe to the newsletter. The Spring 2007 newsletter not only mentions the single serving pizzas that I spoke of yesterday, but there is also a mention of new kids meals:
“Recently Amy’s got a letter from a mother who asked if Amy’s would please make special meals for children. So in response to her letter and many similar requests, Amy’s is offering “Amy’s Kids Meals,” made with special “kid appeal” in child-sized portions. Of course, the ingredients are natural and organic and no meat, fish, poultry, eggs or peanuts are used.”
Other new additions to the Amy’s line-up include Margherita Pizza, Bistro Burger, Quarter Pound Veggie Burger, Amy’s Southern Meal and Tortilla Casserole Bowl.
I am eighteen years old. I can legally buy cigarettes, and gamble and drink in Canada. (I have no interest in doing any of those things, but okay.)
The question is will I buy Amy’s kids meals? Absolutely.
Amy’s Individual Pizzas
Amy’s Kitchen has now added individual pizzas to their product line. A delicious, natural, and partially organic pizza in just the right serving size is exactly what us Amy’s lovers needed! (Believe me, with Amy’s pizzas, there is always the temptation to eat the ENTIRE full sized pizza.) I’ll review it as soon as I can get my hands on it. Yeah, I am WAY too excited.
