Spring is here, and there's no better time to start earning free gift cards through Swagbucks! All throughout April you can earn large bonuses when sign up as my referral on Swagbucks. Swagbucks is a rewards site where you earn points (called SB) for things you're probably doing online already, like searching the web, watching videos, shopping, discovering deals, and taking surveys. Then you take those points and exchange them for gift cards to places like Amazon, Target, or PayPal cash.

When you sign up through me this month, you can earn a 300 SB bonus! Here's how:

1. Sign up using this link

2. Earn 300 SB total before May 1st, 2019. You'll get a 300 SB bonus for it!

3. That's it. It's super easy, and Swagbucks is for real. I use it myself, and I've earned 77,385 (plus another 1,036 pending from recently shopping through them!) and I love to spend them on Amazon gift cards.

*Disclosure* I wrote this post for "Mommy? I'm Hungry!" about Swagbucks as part of their influencer program. I will earn SB for sharing about this.

Spooky Fun with the October Shop Swago Board!

2018-10-08T14:48:00.001-05:00

Swagbucks is hosting another round of Shop Swago! What is SWAGO you ask? It's a bingo-inspired promotion run by Swagbucks, a website that rewards you with points (called SB) for completing everyday online activities. You can redeem those SB for free gift cards. If you've never used Swagbucks, participating in SWAGO is a great introduction to the site and an easy way to earn a good amount of points quickly.

Click here to get started!
Here’s what you need to know to get your 150 SB Bonus (and don’t worry, you don’t have to make a purchase to complete a pattern):

Go to the Swag page and make sure you hit “Join” otherwise you won’t get credit for completing the action items. Each square on your Swago Board will contain an action item to complete.
Once you complete the action item in a particular square the square will change color signifying the action item is complete.
You have a limited amount of time to mark off as many squares as possible so use your time wisely.
Be mindful of the patterns and their corresponding bonuses located on the right of your Swago Board. The patterns will vary in difficulty and bonus value - up to 150 SB.
Once you’ve achieved a pattern the corresponding “Submit” button will light up. You can have multiple patterns available for submission, however, you can only submit ONE pattern so choose wisely.
The game ends Friday, October 12th at 12pm PDT/3pm EDT. So make sure to hit “Submit” on the pattern you wish to submit. If you don’t hit “Submit” before the game ends you won’t receive your SB bonus.

Gumbo Love: Recipes for Gulf Coast Cooking, Entertaining, and Savoring the Good Life by Lucy Buffett, Cookbook Review!

2017-05-13T21:22:00.000-05:00

"Life is short-eat dessert first" so I did! I was offered to review the newest cookbook from Lucy Buffett, Gumbo Love: Recipes for Gulf Coast Cooking, Entertaining, and Savoring the Good Life. Being born in Key West, I was excited to see what this was all about. Well the sweet tooth in me (even though I have been low-no sugar since Feb) went for the desserts. Being Mother's Day weekend I thought I'd treat myself. This Easy-Peasy Chocolate Sauce wasn't just easy, it was delicious! Another sweet tooth recipe that caught my eye is her Chocolate Brownie Flan.

Incorporating Caribbean, Cajun, Cuban, Mexican, Old Florida, and Creole influences, Lucy proves through her collection of recipes that the Gulf Coast has its own distinct flavors and traditions that make it a destination year after year.

Like her brother, Jimmy Buffett, Lucy celebrates freedom, relaxation, and seaside decadence in her own art — cooking. In her new book, Lucy combines over one hundred new recipes with old favorites, including gumbos, main dishes, deep fried favorites, salads, seasonings, libations, and desserts.

A perfect Mother's Day brunch from her book might include:

-Highbrow Margarita

-Watermelon and Feta Cheese Salad

-Spicy Shrimp Ceviche

-Key West Tuna Burger

-Southern Pound Cake with Strawberries

leave it alone while it heats up in a double boiler!

let's eat!

mmmm!

General Mills Debuts New Cereals This Summer!

2016-06-24T17:19:00.000-05:00

Peek-A-Boo! Thought I'd jump right back on here and see how things are going! Work is keeping me very busy lately so when I have some free time I may be writing another blog post.

As a blogger, General Mills likes to send out boxes of their cereal as a sort of Thank You, no strings attached. You may have seen some of my past goodies on my Instagram. Just thought I'd share them here too.

Well coming up for this summer, they have a few new varieties you may like! They contain no artificial flavors or colors from artificial sources and feature real ingredients, something they are doing to make their cereals even better.

First up would be one for me, Gluten Free! Strawberry Cheerios!! Oh yeah! I'll be hiding that one from the kids.

Then they have Tiny Toast in blueberry or strawberry flavors. How adorable are these!

For those who like a heartier cereal, they have Nature Valley Chocolate Oat Bites, Raisin Oat Clusters and as a snack idea, Maple Brown Sugar Granola.

This is a fun festive scent called Iced Gingerbread. It really smells, well, delicious!

They lather up well!

Dole Cherry Crumble Cake & Chocolate Brownie Cherry Ice Cream #TeamDole #GetFrozen

2014-06-18T13:46:00.000-05:00

This post was created in partnership with Dole. I have received compensation for this post. Updated below:

Would you like to join the Team Dole consumer advocate program and receive great opportunities as well? I encourage you to click on over and check it out.

I was to make a recipe using their frozen fruit. I knew I wanted a crumble of sort but saw this sort of coffee cake recipe instead. I decided to give it a try using Dole's Dark Sweet Cherries.

Dole Cherry Crumble Cake
adapted from Fork and Beans

Dry ingredients:
•2 c. gluten-free flour blend (in my crust post)
•3/4 c. sugar
•3 tsp baking powder
•1 tsp xanthan gum
•1/2 tsp salt
•12 oz bag Dole Dark Sweet Cherries, frozen
•zest of 1 lemon

Wet ingredients:
•1 cup milk
•1 Tb apple cider vinegar
•4 Tb oil

1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8x8 pan.
2.Mix milk and vinegar together and allow to sit for 5-7 minutes to sour.
3.Combine all of the dry ingredients together (minus the cherries and zest). Whisk well. (mine came out super thick)
4.Pour oil into soured non-dairy milk and pour into dry ingredients.
5.Fold in berries and lemon zest.
6.Pour into desired pan/dish and top with pistachio cardamom sugar topping (recipe below).
7.Bake 55 minutes or until knife is clean when inserted in the middle

Almond Cardamom Sugar Topping:
•5 Tb butter, chilled
•1/3 c gluten-free flour
•1/4 c brown sugar, packed
•1/4 c sugar
•1/3 c almonds, dry roasted, unsalted, roughly chopped
•1/2 tsp ground cardamom

1.Combine sugars, flour and cardamom together.
2.Add butter until a sand-like crumble forms.
3.Add almonds.

I am sad to say MY cake did not turn out so great. I had to bake it well past an hour and even then it seemed unbaked but glued together and rubbery and tough. Oh, the woes of gluten free baking! I loved the cherries in it, so next time I'd use a favorite coffee cake recipe and add them in and use this topping too, that was good.

*UPDATE*

I have decided to give these Dole frozen cherries another chance, well a different recipe another chance. The cherries were great, the cake wasn't so. I decided to make ice cream this time! I made a spin off of Elle's Mocha Toffee Brownie Chunk Ice Cream. I'll call it Chocolate Brownie Cherry Ice Cream.

You'll want to make the espresso and brownies ahead of time. The espresso coffee is a flavor enhancer, it won't taste like coffee ice cream. For the gluten free brownies, I used the Krusteaz Gluten Free Double Chocolate Brownie Mix from Costco. Also if you have dark cocoa use it, I only had the regular so the chocolate flavor was mild. This ice cream reminds me of a black forest cake, yum!

This ice cream came out fantastic!! My kids kept saying it's the best homemade one I've made yet! Big chunks of cherry and brownie, yum!!

Chocolate Brownie Cherry Ice Cream
Makes roughly one quart, Adapted from Ben and Jerry's & Elle

2 cups heavy cream
1 cup milk
3/4 cups sugar
1 tbsp plus 1 tsp cocoa powder (Hershey's Special Dark if you have it, I didn't)
3 tbsp espresso coffee, DIVIDED
2 eggs
1 1/4 cups (gluten free) brownie chunks (about 1/2 - 1 inch cubes)
1 1/2 cups Dole Dark Sweet Cherries, frozen, cut in half

Start by cutting the brownies into chunks. Set aside, and then cut the cherries in half. Place in the freezer to chill while you work on the ice cream.

In a medium bowl, whisk the cream, milk, sugar, cocoa and 2 tbsp of the espresso. Make sure all of the sugar is dissolved before you proceed. Whisk the eggs in a smaller bowl until light yellow in color. Pour the eggs into the cream mixture and blend well.

Transfer the mixture to your ice cream maker and follow manufacturers instructions for freezing. Just as the ice cream is finishing up it's freezing thing, add the remaining 1 tbsp of coffee, and the brownie and toffee chunks. Let those mix in, and then transfer the ice cream to a container to finish freezing.

KC Masterpiece Original Sauce: Chipotle Mango BBQ Shrimp #kcmasterpiece

2014-06-01T10:00:00.000-05:00

FTC disclosure: I have partnered with DataRank and KC Masterpiece to create this recipe.

When I was first asked to create a special recipe using KC Masterpiece Original sauce, I knew it would be something with a sweet kick and of course grilled outside! I had a few ideas running in my mind but decided the quickest, easiest and most favorable would be shrimp. I chose to do a mango chipotle flavor with the bbq sauce. These came out wonderful! You'll get hints of sweetness from the mango, a little smoky kick from the chipotle and savoriness from the bbq sauce and of course the flavor from grilling. This recipe is fast, delicious and will have everyone wanting seconds.

KC Masterpiece Original sauce is gluten free!

Chipotle Mango BBQ Shrimp

3/4 Cup KC Masterpiece Original sauce

1 tsp. chipotle/adobo sauce

1 TBSP chopped garlic

1/2 Cup mango chunks, frozen, thawed

2 lbs. shrimp, peeled, deveined

In a small bowl, combine the KC Masterpiece Original sauce, chipotle/adobo sauce and garlic. In another bowl mash up the mango with a fork until it's a puree texture, add to bbq sauce mixture and mix well.

Skewer shrimp and on a medium heat, grill about 3 minutes per side. Once you flip the first side, brush with bbq sauce. Once shrimp is finished, remove from grill. Serve with additional sauce if desired.

New Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day by Jeff Hertzberg and Zoe Francois: Review

2013-12-04T18:13:00.002-06:00

Remember this homemade, gluten free pizza I shared about on Instagram. I am still thinking about how delicious it was and that I need to make it again. The recipe came from this cookbook:

THE NEW ARTISAN BREAD IN FIVE MINUTES A DAY: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking by Dr. Jeff Hertzberg and Zoë François.

When their huge bestseller Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day was published in 2007, it immediately became the classic book on bread-making. With more than half a million copies now in print, Hertzberg and François prove that people want to bake their own bread, provided they can do it easily and quickly.

Now, by popular demand, the authors have completely revised and updated the book that had revolutionized bread-making. They’ve returned to their test kitchens to whip up more than 30 new recipes and an entire gluten-free chapter. Among their insanely easy, mouth-watering recipes are:

· Gluten-free Cheesy Breadsticks, Pizza, Baguette and Sweet Brioche!!

· Beer-Cheese and Crock-Pot Bread

· Pretzel Buns!

· Apple-Stuffed French Toast

· Oatmeal Pumpkin Bread

THE NEW ARTISAN BREAD allows home bakers to make great daily breads and sweets but still have a life outside the kitchen. For more info, please visit: www.artisanbreadinfive.com.

Please connect with Artisan Bread in Five on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

getting ready to bake gluten free bread

I decided to give the gluten free master mix a review and some other time I will be trying some of the other recipes for my family such as the pretzel rolls, oh yum! I remember their first version of Artisan Bread in 5, I wasn't gluten free then and was sure I could get a loaf of bread to cooperate. Sadly I never did get around to trying any of the recipes. Then I had the chance to review this version with gluten free recipes, yay! Pizza was on the menu. I love that you make a master mix that will make more than one loaf/crust at a time.

A batch of this gluten free master dough will make four loaves (about 1 pound each), you'll use 1/2 pound for a pizza crust. Don't be alarmed by the cottage cheese like texture, it'll be fine once you start working with it.

I made a spinach chicken sausage pizza and I baked mine off first, while the family's gluten pizza was baking they decided to eat mine! Guess what? They loved it! The crust was soft, chewy and delicious.

I then tried 2 more of the pieces of the dough for a regular sandwich loaf...

...but sadly my loaves were flat and very doughy inside, even after a longer bake. This always happens to me, I'm sure it's just me and not the recipe.

Then I decided to make another batch, it rises beautifully.

I froze a piece for pizza crust later on, then used the rest of the dough as sandwich rolls/buns. I scooped two of my ice cream size scoops out and shaped them.

ready to fill...

These baked up thin (I like them thin) and less doughy inside, but they were still delicious!

Loaded with the finest, recognizable ingredients, these first-of-a-kind veggie burgers are perfect for helping consumers create flavorful, as well as sensible and convenient Thai-inspired burger, stir fry and salad dishes.

I was sent a box full of Dr. Praeger’s frozen foods to try out with my family. I already knew of these because I had attended a gluten free tent event at one of our local stores and they served a few of these products! I think I had tried their spinach cakes and really liked them so I was eager to try more.

I received many varieties both gluten free and non gluten free products. They are marked which are gluten free on the front so no guessing and reading through the list of ingredients before realizing yes they are gluten free. I love that they use simple ingredients, lots of veggies.

Even though they have specific cooking temps and times, I cooked (the below) at 375' for probably 20 minutes (higher temp/time as called for) and they came out just fine.

Please follow along with Dr. Praeger's on Facebook and Twitter. For a store near you check here.

Lunch time included these products to taste test:

Dr. Praeger’s Lightly Breaded Fishies, Asian Veggie Burger, (Gluten Free) Veggie Littles, (Gluten Free) California Veggie Burgers, (Gluten Free) Potato Crusted Fishies.

The kiddos tried the Lightly Breaded Fishies, Asian Veggie Burger and the (Gluten Free) Veggie Littles.

The kids did enjoy them, probably the fishies most of all, they wanted more (and I cannot get my family to eat fish). I was also happy that they tried the veggie littles. They also liked the burger.

My lunch munchies: (Gluten Free) Veggie Littles, (Gluten Free) California Veggie Burger in a lettuce wrap, (Gluten Free) Potato Crusted Fishies with homemade tarter sauce.

I also thought the fishies were great, the inside is more of a mashed potato texture, it's not going to be a flaky piece of fish. The veggie littles and the veggie burger were very similar ingredients just in different form I guess. The burger I found to be too delicate to eat in a lettuce wrap, it was very soft, but still pretty good.

Aloha Island Lei: Review

2013-08-08T08:00:00.000-05:00

Aloha Island Lei is your source for beautiful Hawaiian leis. They offer many types of leis for men and women from fresh fragrant orchids and flowers to kukui nut and ti leaf leis. They also offer gorgeous tropical arrangements. Floral leis are perishable so keep this in mind when ordering yours, they offer special tips on their site for ordering and taking care of your lei.

The history of the Hawaiian lei dates back to the first Polynesian settlers, who introduced the lei to the Hawaiian Islands as a sentiment of love, friendship, celebration and in honor of the Hawaiian Gods. Leis are a perfect for any occasion such as birthdays, graduations, weddings and for showing sympathy.

Aloha Island Lei contacted me to see if I wanted to review their company with a beautiful Hawaiian flower lei. I said yes!! You see, I lived in Hawaii my teen years when my Dad was in the Navy. I had a great time living there, meeting lots of friends through school and church so I was around many of the locals and culture. I have great memories of Oahu and miss it dearly. This package arrived overnight and well packed that the leis were untouched! But what really got to me, was the scent of the leis! OH MY!! It was as if I just stepped off that plane again to receive a beautiful lei around my neck! The aroma was so wonderful, I think I got a tear in my eye because the memories came flooding back. It sure brought the warmth of the Islands to my home.

In celebration of their new website, Aloha Island Lei is offering 10% off your order with promo code GRAND! Please visit their website to see what they can offer you! *Orders must be placed by 8/31/13 and shipped by 9/15/13.

I was surprised to receive two beautiful Hawaiian leis. They arrive safe and sound, well wrapped with cold packs even. They stayed laying out as shown, they didn't even budge!

Let's not forget about the ever so delicious chocolate covered macadamia nut candy!! Oh my!

The orchids are tightly weaved on, making this lei very sturdy and beautiful. You can almost smell it in this photo.

I let the orchid lei dry and hung it on our hutch that sits in the living room.

The Ninja Professional Frying System: Review

2013-07-29T08:00:00.000-05:00

Love fried foods but hate the guilt? There is now a healthier way to fry so you can indulge in the foods you love without all the guilt.

The Ninja Professional Frying System allows you to prepare your favorite fried dishes with 30% less fat and 40% faster due to its revolutionary heat combination that keeps cooking oil at a uniform temperature, so foods cook to light, crispy perfection with less oil absorption. Ninja’s patent-pending basket lid keeps food fully submerged in oil so food is cooked evenly through without having to be flipped or turned in the fryer.

The Ninja Professional Frying System ($99 MSRP) features:
Removable enamel oil reservoir, an easy-to-empty oil spout and the lid/oil reservoir are dishwasher safe. Equipped with Cool Zone Technology that keeps oil cleaner for a longer period of time.

Additional features include:
-Lid with large window for easy viewing
-Easy-grip basket handle
-Cool-touch exterior
-Powerful 1800 watts
-3 liter capacity (cooks up to 3.2 lbs. of food)
-Includes delicious recipes
-Digital LCD timer and display

You can also learn more about The Ninja Professional Frying System on Facebook and @NinjaKitchen on Twitter.

Even though I watch how much of fried foods I eat I had to give this a try. So far I have kept it a gluten free only fryer but since I don't eat a lot of fried foods, it may become a gluten fryer because Mr. LOVES his french toast fried and is begging to make it in this! I know he'd also love some jalapeno poppers fried too.

So far I have made gluten free apple fritters, gluten free churros and of course honey walnut shrimp. The churros were the first to be fried so I was still getting used to how the fryer works. The temp and timer are digital and I learned to just keep the oil hot at 375' for most foods. My churros took forever because I had to the temp too low (see video). Next time I had the temp up and my fritters cooked more quickly. One thing I did notice, is they have you lay the food in the basket then lower it into the oil, but my fritter cooked into the basket holes and were hard to remove lol, so I found just adding the food carefully (with tongs) into the basket/oil made it easier.

The oil heats up quickly and will beep when ready to fry. The fryer basket is a nice size and can hold quite a bit of food. Foods cooked in about 4-7 minutes and came out so golden, crispy and just delicious! Mr. LOVED the shrimp.

This fryer is perfect counter top size and didn't take up much space at all. I kept it out the whole time I reviewed it (over a month or two) because I knew the oil was still good to use (but I tossed it out after the shrimp). I really like this fryer, the basket lid keeps the foods IN the oil allowing the foods to cook quickly and even. I loved the large fryer lid which helped eliminate any dangerous splatters.

This is defiantly one of the funnest kitchen gadgets I have and I know we'll be enjoying more fried foods with this!

Come see our quick little video making gluten free churros!

2013-06-14T08:00:00.000-05:00

Hey San Diegans, So Cal and out of town visitors! Here's a great activity to check out when visiting or passing through North County!

San Diego Children’s Discovery Museum (SDCDM) is planning an exciting summer season for families. Now in its second year at the new facility (320 N. Broadway, Escondido, CA 92025) the museum has a new array of on-site activities, programs, and promotions that make SDCDM a top destination for families all summer long. Locals and visitors alike are encouraged to visit and experience the museum’s wide variety of new attractions starting this June.

New! Open Mondays and Increased Hours
As of June 1st, the SDCDM will be open seven days a week (no longer closed on Mondays), and increase the hours from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. daily.

Active Military & Veterans Get FREE Admission this Summer
From Memorial Day to Labor Day, SDCDM will be participating in the Blue Star Museums campaign—a collaboration among the National Endowment for the Arts, Blue Star Families, The Department of Defense and more than 1,800 museums across America—to offer free admission to all active duty military personnel and their families. SDCDM is also offering free admission to all U.S. Military veterans and their families as a way to say thank you for their service to our country.

Summer Discovery Camp for Ages 5-8
Summer Discovery Camp will take place at SDCDM from June 17th through August 16th, allowing kids from age 5-8 opportunities to learn about science, arts, and world cultures outside of the classroom. This summer’s themes range from Imagination Creations, where campers explore work from famous artists and discover how creative you can be using different mediums, to Grossology, where campers explore the chemistry, biology, and environmental science behind all things “gross.” The cost for Discovery Camp is $175 per week for SDCDM members and $250 for non-members. For a full list of Discovery Camp themes and to register visit www.sdcdm.org.

KPBS Kids Workshops
Throughout the summer SDCDM will host a KPBS Kids Workshop from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. which will include engaging hands-on activities for children ages 3 and up to explore the many worlds of favorite childhood characters like Curious George, Cat in the Hat, Clifford and many more! Workshops and activities will take place at 10:15 a.m. and 11:15 a.m. and will last approximately a half hour to 45 minutes. KPBS Kids Workshop will take place June 8th, July 13th, and August 10th.

Beat the Summer Heat Inside or Outside
For families looking for a cool way to beat the summer heat, SDCDM invites them to its air-conditioned indoor exhibit area featuring exhibits such as wind tunnels showing kids how wind energy works, Kids Global Village encouraging children to learn about daily life in different cultures, building with Imagination Playground, early childhood development activities in the Toddler Tide Pool, and endless journeys of imagination on the Explorer Discovery Sailboat. Families can also play, relax, picnic, and enjoy the outdoors in the Children’s Discovery Garden.

For further details on San Diego Children’s Discovery Museum, visit: www.sdcdm.org.

I was offered complimentary tickets for my family to visit the San Diego Children’s Discovery Museum this summer, once we get settled into our new place. We are excited because it'll be close by. Please be sure to watch my instagram for photos of our visit. (I will repost some here as well)

SDCDM was founded as a non-profit organization in 2001 as Escondido Children's Museum, with the focus of learning through play and inspiring children from newborn to age 12 to learn about our world through exploration, imagination and experimentation. Admission costs at the new location are $6 per person, $3 for military and disabled and free for children 12 months and younger. Memberships, group discounts, birthday parties and spring and summer camps are available. San Diego Children's Discovery Museum is affiliated with the Association of Children's Museums.

This is a sponsored post on behalf of the Cans Get You Cooking program.

From now until the end of this year as a CanBassador I will be sharing Cans Get You Cooking with you. This is a program dedicated to sharing the message that the ironclad technology of cans seals in freshness, flavor, nutrition and goodness so that you can create meals you feel good about serving and that your family will love. I love them because they are also convenient and quick.

The can is one of the best ways to get food from the farm to my family’s table. The canning process locks in foods’ freshness, flavor and nutrients at the peak of ripeness, just hours after picking. It’s field to sealed and ready for you to serve up!

There quite a few canned goods I buy already for my pantry and I'll be sharing about some of our favorites along with recipes and giveaways for you. Be sure to check out Cans Get You Cooking on Facebook to learn more about this program.

Today I am sharing a recipe with you using Del Monte canned pears. With Summer peeking right around the corner, I'm sure we'll all be making popsicles all the time. I found this easy recipe that combine some of our favorites, greek yogurt, blueberries and pears. Blend them all up and pour into your favorite molds and enjoy later in the day. (I found my molds on Amazon, love them but I need more, so I also had to use plastic cups)

Blueberry and Pear Yogurt Pops
adapted from Recipe.Com

1 15.25 oz. can Del Monte pear halves in heavy syrup (you'll use 3 pear halves), reserve 2 TBL of syrup
1 cup frozen blueberries
2 cups vanilla honey greek yogurt

Drain the pears, reserving 2 tablespoons of syrup. Place three pear halves, blueberries, reserved syrup and yogurt in a blender or food processor. Cover and mix until it's smooth. Divide the mixture evenly among ice-pop molds. Freeze until firm, 4 to 6 hours or overnight. When ready to serve, run popsicle molds under cool/warm water to loosen the mold. Enjoy!

(this gave me about 3 3/4 Cups of mixture and made me seven pops from my molds)

my store carries quite a variety of canned Del Monte products. Today, I needed pears.

I used my regular popsicle molds and then used cups & sticks to make more.

We loved these blueberry & pear pops!

my shopping is being done at our local Albertson's. (not affiliated with this program)

SeaSnax Roasted Seaweed Snacks: Review

2013-05-18T11:44:00.003-05:00

Our family recently learned of seaweed snacks from school. My youngest daughter would come home and tell me how her friend let her have some and that she loved it! WHAT??? My kids who are afraid to try my veggie sushi rolls will eat seaweed snacks?? Then I was offered to review these SeaSnax so of course I had to say yes, because I knew the perfect reviewers for the job! My kids!

SeaSnax are a nutrient-packed roasted seaweed snack which are vegan, gluten free and Non-GMO Project verified. They are made using 100% olive oil and just a pinch of sea salt. This vegetable of the sea is all natural with no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives. They are great right out of the bag or put them into your favorite soup or salad.

Coming out in June they will have SeaSprinkles in Toasty Coconut and Vegan Cheese flavors ready for sale. My youngest ones loved them. Myself, sorry to say I wasn't as big of a fan as they are, maybe if it was rolled with some veggies & rice. I just can't do them as is. I am happy they loved them, I am now asked to add them to their lunch boxes and they get so excited.
