MIYOKO'S MOZZARELLA CHEESE
So I had heard people raving about this brand for quite some time but was like $9.99 for cheese?!?! I am going to pass! But I must say I finally coughed up the money to try this "most talked about" vegan cheese and I had NO REGRETS. I think it is SUPER YUMMY and it melts great! Perfect topping to my good old cauliflower pizzas. I ordered it from Milk And Eggs Grocery Delivery Service and it was so WORTH IT! I have also seen it in Whole Foods and Ralphs.
TOFURKY ITALIAN SAUSAGE
I got quite a few questions in regards to the Tofurky Deli Turkey Slices I raved about in January and one of them being did you actually like it and how it tasted? And the answer is yes 100% I really do enjoy their products without a doubt. This Italian Sausage has to be my favorite of their products I have tried thus far. I top almost all my pasta dishes off with half of a link cut up AND these are great for pizza toppings too! I swear you can't even tell this is a vegan product! I buy this product from Trader Joes and have seen it at Ralphs!
KITE HILL JALAPENO CREAM CHEESE SPREAD
At this point I don't even take my own cream cheese to work on Bagel Thursdays for health and nutrition reasons.. I take this bad boy because it taste better than any cream cheese I have ever had! No joke I spread this dairy-free Kite Hill Jalapeรฑo spread on toast, bagels, dip it in crackers, and I mean I will admit there have been moments I have nothing to eat it with and will just scoop out a bite! And I don't feel bleh and bloated after! This is a frequent buy on my Milk and Eggs order (only $6.49!) AND can be found in Whole Foods and Sprouts.
CALIFIA FARMS UNSWEETENED VANILLA ALMOND MILK
When it comes to Almond Milks I usually switch off between this one, Almond Breeze, and Silk usually whatever is on sale but have found most almond milks to run $3.50 to $4.99 either way. I really like the brand Califia Farms because it tastes very smooth and clean to me! I purchased this for $4.99 at Milk and Eggs because it is convenient to have delivered to me AND it is the exact same price at Ralph's! Score! I have also seen Califia in Sprouts, Target, Walmart, just to name a few.
PRIMAL KITCHEN RANCH DRESSING
Being from the Midwest I naturally dip almost any and everything in ranch. With that being said all those dips and sauces can add up considering how many of us actually measure out the appropriate serving size when it comes to dips and sauces?!?! I know I don't! This ranch is made from avocado oil, and is sugar free, dairy-free, soy, and canola free! AND which this is a BIG ONE... It TASTES GOOD! I have tried SOOO many Dairy Free Ranch dressings (Daiya=yuck) and literally say F IT, I will just buy regular ranch but this I must say is one of few that work for me! Again pricier than your average bottle of (unhealthy) ranch, ($6.99 at Milk And Eggs as opposed to $7.95 on Primal's website) but you get what you pay for! And with how much I am dipping away, this is crucial for my health! Available at Milk and Eggs, Whole Foods, Sprouts, and Amazon!
Until Next Month Fit Friends,
