-closed- Cholula Hot Sauce Giveaway and Review!


This review sure made my Husband happy! We were sent Cholula Hot Sauce! My Husband sure knows that Cholula is all about enhancing the flavor of food. Cholula is his only hot sauce, and he's so happy that our big super warehouse carries a large 2 pack of it! lol, maybe I should just get him this! I think their little wooden caps are so cute, and even though many may argue, that is a woman on their bottle, she's the one who makes Cholula so flavorful! =)

The Cholula difference is all in its exclusive blend of piquin and arbol peppers, ground into a delicate pepper paste then combined with signature seasonings and natural ingredients. The result is a flavorful hot sauce with a balanced heat for which it is fondly referred to as "The Flavorful Fire".

This 4-pack contains one bottle of each unique Cholula variety: Original, Chili Garlic, Chili Lime & Chipotle. We've seen the garlic and lime variety before but have never tried it. I was first to try the Chili Garlic on some one of my easy cheapo meals, beef & rice burritos. I only use a few drops on my foods, I don't like my mouth burning, lol. This one tasted as great as it smells! I haven't tried the others yet, but have smelled them, I can't wait to try the Chili lime on fish tacos!! Sounds sooo good! I wasn't crazy about the Chipotle, I'm not a big fan of smokiness, but maybe if I cut it with some sour cream for a drizzle on sandwiches I bet it's good. Next time I make enchiladas, I'll add some of these sauces to them. Mmmm!

*I did forget to mention, I had a large Brunch here this past weekend, and I had these Cholula sauces out for my egg dises, one guest loved the Chipotle sauce!

Bed Bug Proof Cover Complete Set: Tomoson Review


We were sent a Bed Bug Proof Cover Complete Set by Allergy Guard Direct. We bought it for our oldest's bed since everyone else's bed are a 1 mattress style (our King and their bunk beds). We do not have bed bugs, but these covers are great for other reasons too, such as dust mites, they're allergen proof and water proof too! I know a lot of Hotels and Inns have been in the news about having bed bugs and I wish they'd all invest in these covers, since Mr. will be traveling more, it's scary to think what kind of bed he's really sleeping on! ACK! They also make a Bed Bug Proof Travel Sack for reasons like that.

Bed Bugs can easily bite through normal bedding. They make their Bed Guard Covers from a special knit fabric that is lab-tested and certified to be Bed Bug Proof. They also use a heavy duty zipper that stops Bed Bugs from escaping an infested bed or stops a new mattress from ever being infested.

Our set included a mattress cover, box spring cover and 2 pillow case covers (which I forgot to add to our photo). Silly me, I think I ordered the wrong size in depth, because the top cover is a little extra big. These are nicely made covers, super light weight and I just love that the mattress is protected in more ways than one. You can purchase these bed bug protective covers here online.

Their Mattress & Pillow encasements are made from 100% polyester which is laminated to a urethane membrane. The weave of the fabric, which is a circular knit polyester, has a "satin like" feel to it and is very smooth and cool to the touch.

•Great for hot sleepers who still want a membrane product.
•Upgraded bite proof fabric.
•Heavy Duty Zipper
•Nearly 3.5/ Square yard which indicates a nice heavier weight.
•Breathable urethane barrier is a very effective defense against dust mites and most allergens as well as Bed Bugs.
•All covers are sewn with 12 stitches per inch for ultimate strength in the seams to prevent tearing.
•Urethane membrane is 100% waterproof which is an added advantage for bed wetters and incontinence.
•Latex Free
•Lifetime warranty

Queen size 60x80x16

My Eggland's Best Brunch {post 2}



So last weekend I hosted a Brunch here, sponsored by Eggland's Best eggs. There was 21 of us here (parents + kids) and I made sure there was lots to eat! Eggland's Best also sent me gift bags to have a giveaway at my home, as well as here on my blog! Have you entered to win my blog giveaway yet? Check out what you'll get!

{a sneak peek at what YOU could win!}


cute little stamps!

So my menu for my Brunch was everything eggs, lol. A few of the recipes I have posted here already but I'm going to make a special recipe post over at my recipe blog as well this weekend. Here's what kept me busy in my kitchen:

-French Toast Bake
-Crustless Ham & Egg Mini Quiche
-Ham and Egg Quiche Biscuit Cups (adapted)
-Blueberry Muffins
-Cinnamon Rolls
-Fresh Fruit Salad
-Deviled eggs (adapted)

During my food prep I took some time with Eggland's Best eggs, as I was boiling some for deviled eggs, they had teeny air bubbles coming up from them, and they were making chirping sounds!! It was so strange! Then I did a test comparison of their eggs to an ordinary egg from the shell:

an ordinary egg on the left, an Eggland's Best egg on the right
What do you think? Can you tell any difference?

We all hung out, ate and ate and ate, the kids played, the guys migrated to the garage then a little while later I held my raffle and mentioned a few facts about Eggland's Best eggs. It was a great time for all with tons of great food to eat and bring home! Come and check it out with my video we made from the Flip camera Eggland's Best provided us.

{I did goof and say those were eggless quiches, lol they are crustless egg quiche!}
{still learning how to edit videos, so there's lots of chit chat time}

Thank you Eggland's Best for everything!!

Zevia All Natural, Zero Calorie Soda Review

Zevia, the first all natural, zero calorie soda sweetened with stevia. It’s an alternative for soda drinkers who are looking for beverage options without sugar, calories and artificial sweeteners. Stevia is a natural botanical native to South and Central America. For centuries, Native Americans of Paraguay and Brazil called it "sweet leaf" and used it to sweeten native foods. Stevia is used as a food additive in China, Japan, all of South America and in the United States. The extract from the stevia leaf has no calories, no effect on blood sugar levels, and is hundreds of times sweeter than sugar.

With 100% natural formulas that are vegan, Kosher and gluten-free, Zevia is available in all your favorite flavors including: Cola, Ginger Root Beer, Dr. Zevia, Black Cherry, Ginger Ale, Lemon Lime Twist and Orange. New flavors debuting this year include: Grape, Mountain Zevia, Grapefruit Citrus, Caffeine Free Cola and Cream Soda.
Check here for a store near you or check online at amazon! You may also follow along with Zevia on Facebook and Twitter.

again, my little one sneaking into pics, heehee

I was sent 2 flavors to review the Zevia Cola and Zevia Ginger Root Beer. I tasted the cola first and saved the ginger root beer one for the kids to try. Immediately I could taste the natural stevia in it and to me, it taste like those artificial sugar substitutes which I do not like at all. I do not drink any diet sodas (and don't even drink regular soda that often) but I was hoping Zevia would be different. I could not get past the taste of it, and to me there was an after taste. Bummer. When the kids got home from school we popped open the other soda to try. Of course they thought it was great, but again I couldn't drink it. I did taste more of a ginger flavor than root beer though. The carbonation in these is great and if you're one to drink those other diet sodas, I say give Zevia a try you just may like these!

Cola

Most diet sodas use artificially produced caffeine. The natural caffeine in Zevia Cola stevia soda comes from coffee and tea. Zevia Cola has 45mg/12fl.
Ginger Root Ginger Extract, Orange, Lemon, Cassia, Wintergreen, Anise and Clove Leaf oils are part of what gives Zevia Ginger Root Beer its creamy, delicious flavor.

Funky Monkey Snacks Review


Funky Monkey® Snacks are real fruit snacks, made using a freeze-drying process that creates Fruit That Crunches!® while retaining nearly all of fruit’s natural goodness.

Funky Monkey Snacks’ larger one-ounce bags contain three of the four daily recommended servings of fruit. Both the one-ounce and 0.42-ounce sizes are available in the following flavors:

Applemon® (Freeze-Dried Apple and Organic Cinnamon)
Bananamon® (Freeze-Dried Organic Banana and Organic Cinnamon)
Carnaval Mix™ (Freeze-Dried Organic Banana, Pineapple, Apple and Papaya)
JiveALime® (Freeze-Dried Pineapple and Lime Juice)
MangOJ® (Freeze-Dried Mango and Orange Juice)
Pink Pineapple® (Freeze-Dried Pineapple and Guava)
Purple Funk® (Freeze-Dried Organic Banana and Organic Açai – (pronounced ah-sigh-EE)


Funky Monkey Snacks are gluten-free, wheat-free, dairy-free, peanut and tree nut free, and contain no added sugars, colors, flavors or preservatives. They are Non-GMO Project verified, vegan, raw and certified Kosher.They are produced in Brazil, near where the fruit is grown to ensure that all of the premium-quality ingredients are harvested and freeze-dried at the peak of freshness.


Different from other freeze-dried fruits on the market which can have a powdery and Styrofoam-like texture, Funky Monkey’s proprietary method of freeze drying creates a snack that has the crunchy appeal of more traditional snack foods, with three servings of fruit in every ounce. Full slices and pieces of fruit are used, not small dices typically found in other types of fruit-based snacks.


Funky Monkey’s freeze-drying method also uses less energy than other processes by utilizing thermodynamics and steam from a cashew shell-powered boiler. Further supporting its mission to be environmentally respectful, Funky Monkey only uses organic bananas, pineapples, cinnamon, açai and lime juice, eliminating the use of chemicals.
Also, all fruit waste (peels, cores, etc.) is re-used as fertilizer or animal feed, as opposed to taking up space in a landfill.

Funky Monkey Snacks are sold nationwide at major retailers and online at Amazon.com. For more information, visit http://www.funkymonkeysnacks.com/, Twitter or Facebook.


We're no stranger to Funky Monkey snacks, we've reviewed these wonderful snacks before here. This time they sent us a couple of new flavors to try. I loved the Pink Pineapple, it's a little tart from the pineapple but also sweet from the guava and the natural sweetnedd from the pineapple as well. I saved the MangOJ for my oldest, she loves mango anything, and of course loved these! The Carnival Mix is great, it's got some of everything in it. I think all of these were a hit, surely with the kids. They are perfect for a school time snack. I love that they come in single packages, are a dried snack so no messy sticky hands, they taste great and have fun packaging too.

-closed- My Eggland’s Best Brunch and a Quick Giveaway for 4 Fans! {part 1}


With March being “National Nutrition Month”, Eggland’s Best (EB) is helping me host an egg-citing, nutritional brunch for a few of our friends and their families this weekend. Egg-land's Best eggs were developed for people who want to eat healthy, but still want great taste. Eggland’s Best eggs are nutritionally superior to ordinary eggs. Eggland's Best eggs are higher in Vitamin E, Omega 3 and Lutein and lower in cholesterol and saturated fat than ordinary eggs.

What makes EB eggs superior to ordinary eggs?

a) 25% less saturated fat
b) 2x more omega-3 fatty acids
c) 3x more Vitamin B12
d) All of the above
Answer: d

 
Did You Know?
Vitamin B12 is important for healthy protein metabolism, as well as cognitive, cardiovascular and nervous system health.  The most important function of vitamin B12 is to form healthy red blood cells, which may help prevent heart disease.

I plan to have 19 of us here (kids & parents) and I'm super excited! I'm used to doing the big Holiday dinner so this is a cinch, menu wise. I've got quite an assortment of goodies to munch on and most I can start the night before, so that keeps it easy on me. I would love to have cooked up some eggs or omelets, but I need food that can stand to sit out for a bit and be ok so they may not seem so nutritious, but at least they'll have EB eggs in them! I will be posting these recipes on my Recipe Blog shortly after so check back for those.

The Menu will be:

-French Toast Bake
-Breakfast Casserole w/ham & sausage
-Mini Crustless Ham & Egg Quiche’s
-Ham and Egg Quiche Biscuit Cups
-Blueberry Muffins
-Cinnamon Rolls
-Fresh Fruit Salad
-Boiled eggs
-Deviled eggs (yeah!)
-OJ
-Chocolate milk
-Coffee

What difference did consumers and chefs say they noticed when using EB eggs versus ordinary eggs?
a) EB yolks are plumper, richer in color and creamier
b) EB egg dishes taste better
c) EB egg dishes come out more consistent
d) All of the above
Answer: d

 
Did You Know?
Animal fat is commonly used in feed for hens producing ordinary eggs, but not EB hens.
Animal fat has an objectionable odor and detracts from the flavor of eggs. It also raises
the saturated fat level of the egg yolks.
Eggland's Best sent over a big care package for my Brunch, including coupons for myself and to hand out to my guests, 2 goodie bags with EB treats inside (I plan to draw names and have some sort of trivia with them), a gift card to help with my menu, and a really cool Flip video camera so I can film some of my brunch event with you all!
 
I'm excited to try out these eggs, I've never even had an Eggland's Best egg before, Have you? They sound amazing! I will have to do a side by side comparison of them to an ordinary egg in my next post.

True or False: It’s more nutritious to only eat the egg whites
Answer: False

 
Did You Know?
The majority of nutrients can be found in the yolk. Research has shown that people who ate up to 12 Eggland’s Best eggs per week experienced no increase in their total serum cholesterol or LDL (“bad”) cholesterol when compared to a group who did not eat eggs. In fact, both groups reduced their serum cholesterol by approximately the same amount.

So I kind of snuck in some interesting factoids about EB eggs, did you read them? So because you won't get to be ay my Brunch party, I am having a online brunch party! Yes! Four of my MIH fans will get to win in this giveaway! But hurry! This ends April 1st!!
I wish I had some photos to share, but I'll add them in post #2.
Where can you buy Eggland's Best eggs? Most grocery stores carry them, check here for a list near you! For more great recipes using Eggland's Best eggs, check our their recipe files here! You may also find EB on Facebook and Twitter!







FOUR "Mommy? I'm Hungry!" fans will win Eggland's Best goodies!
-The 1st winner will win a EB goodie bag {an eco shopping bag, plush egg, apron and two free coupons}
-3 runner ups will each recieve 1 FREEBIE coupon for EB eggs!
