The Best Thing I Ever Ate..

Love that show. :D ...and I can't think of a title at the moment...and I'm going to be late for class. lol

Mahalo! I just got back from a quick morning workout, got ready and made a 2 step breakfast. But before we get to that delicious-ness, we must discuss my dinner from last night.

Low Fat, Gluten Free and made with Organic beans, bell peppers & corn tortillas
I received this product from Cedarlane. The Opinions expressed are my own.
Check out these nutritionals. Now, usually, I hold a grudge when companies put 1 enchilada as a serving. However, when you do the math, the whole tray of all natural goodness only has 280 calories, 6g of fat and about 26% of the RDA for sodium...so, all in all, I was very satisfied with this:
The ingredient list is so short, it makes me smile. Why? Because the dish is so incredibly flavorful; which means that each all natural ingredient is able to shine and do it's thang! ;)
P.s. This was one of the creamiest enchilada dishes that I have eaten in a long time.
Question: Where in the world did Cedarlane find their "rennetless non fat cheddar cheese" because I have never met a fat free cheese that I liked...until last night.
Here we see an Organic Pinto Bean, creepin' out of the robust sauce that tastes homemade, beneath a soft, yet firm organic corn tortilla that cradles the components of the dish perfectly without becoming soggy!
As I dug in further, the corn, organic green peppers, green chilis, black olives and onions began to not only make an appearance to my eyes, but to my excited taste buds as well.
This is one of the best enchiladas that I have ever eaten...frozen or not. Wow. That's a bold statement.
Yogurt with half of a frozen banana (cut into chunks) mixed in! I left it in the freezer for 2 hours and ...
I had frozen yogurt that literally tasted like the kind that you snag out of the Ice Cream Aisle! :D
Snack Plates + Homework = My Life At the Moment
Oh yea, back to that breakfast that I was talking about. In a rush? Feeling a little apple-y today?
Grab a packet of instant oatmeal (I had Kashi GoLean on hand) and add one little serving cup (or 1/2 cup) of apple sauce. Mix thoroughly and you will have something the consistency of a loose cookie dough batter. Microwave according to package directions and...voila!
It looked like a little apple cake on the outside, but when I dug in it was creamy as could be. Deeelightful!

Have a fabulous day! I guess I should get to Calculus II class before it gets to me...

  1. Cedarlane is my favorite!!When they go on sale, I buy ten and hope to eat most of them before the sale is over so I can go buy ten more! YUM!!! My Kroger has some on sale now: Some are priced 3.89, and they're buy one, get one! Two Cedarlane pieces of heaven for less than $4!! Have you tried any of their other stuff?
