Gardein Mandarin Orange Crispy Chick'n

Gardein beefless tips

I discovered Gardein products when my household went full on Vegan for 9 months. We were 100% meat and potatoes prior to that, so finding a good meat substitute was key - Gardein did it for me.
The Beefless tips really do have a taste and texture almost identical to beef. Even though we're eating meat again (sparingly, but still), this makes its rotation through our dinners at least weekly. Sautee it with spices, onions, and mushrooms and serve over pasta for a delicious stroganoff. Sautee it in sesame oil and throw it in with stir fry veggies or noodles, and it's heaven. Even in Ramen for a quick meal with some substance.
I don't know how they did it, but they made an amazing product. So easy to just pull out of the freezer and cook up to add to a meal for additional protein and taste. YUM!

ReaLemon Juice
I always have a big bottle of this in the refrigerator. It's great for when we need lemon in a pinch and I don't have time to run to the store to buy fresh. We also make lemonades out of it, and it's perfect. Lasts forever in the fridge.

I've recently started experimenting with Indian and Thai foods. By no means am I an expert chef (unless you want mac and cheese!), but Thai Kitchen Coconut Milk really helps to keep my soups and curries flavorful and thick.
I have used it a couple of times in soapmaking as well, don't recommend it for that lol. I can't quite get the right mix of lye and coconut milk to get it to solidify and end up having to rebatch it. Point is though, this milk is great and versatile!

We buy the Dole Salad Kits at least a few times a week. One bag feeds both my husband and I with dinner, and is a great pre-washed selection of greens and other veggies. The toppings that come with are pretty darn good, too, and generously add to the deliciousness of a quick pasta dinner, as a side to steak and potatoes, or even a burger! -

GET IN MY MOUTH!
No, seriously. I am a huge chai fan. I always have looseleaf chai as well as the pre-made chai mixes on hand, and I have at least a glass a day of unsweetened chai with milk. Having said that, the Oprah Chai is a bit on the sweet side when the 'Bux brews it, but it's perfectly balanced by the ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, and Oprah magic. It's a wee bit expensive when you buy it at Starbucks, but totally worth it. I usually get a "Dirty Oprah" (with a shot of espresso) because I like the extra caffiene boost and the giggle it gives the baristas.
Not that bad nutritionally, either. I get a Venti each time I get em (a couple times a week) and it's roughly 250 calories. A great reward iced for a hard workout. Counterintuitive, yes, but DELICOUS.

Coca-Cola Classic
I grew up in a Pepsi household, and I never really thought that there was any difference in the colas. However, I married a man who is adamantly a Coke fan, and I have to say that I was converted. Now Pepsi and other brand colas are way too sweet... +
I grew up in a Pepsi household, and I never really thought that there was any difference in the colas. However, I married a man who is adamantly a Coke fan, and I have to say that I was converted. Now Pepsi and other brand colas are way too sweet for me. Coke is an absolute must at the movie theatre, nothing beats the cool crisp taste with some delicous popcorn. We always keep it in stock in our pantry. -
Nutiva Organic Virgin Coconut Oil

We've been coconut oil hipsters, quite glad to use it before it became uber trendy. We use it to fry things, make popcorn, put in our hair and moisturize our bodies... yeah, we're those people. So, we've kept an eye out for the best value and brand, and to this day Nutiva takes the cake. My massage therapist even uses it as a massage oil.
It's got a light, coconutty taste to it. Translates to popcorn, but not when we cook meats or stir fry veggies in it. Using it on the body it is a bit greasy (it's an oil, duh), but it absorbs pretty quickly and leaves you feeling smooth.
I definitely recommend it over other brands, it's the best we've found so far.

Despite my many soda reviews, I actually only drink about a can a day. I like to keep the variety up though, so we have a bunch of different kinds in the pantry. For a cherry cola, this is definitely one of my favorites. Not too sweet while staying true to the cherry flavor concept, and the perfect amount of carbonation! -
Dr Pepper Cherry
As a huge fan of regular Dr Pepper, this is a fun treat to have in the pantry. The classic Pepper taste with an awesome hit of cherry. Delicious!
