Innate Eats

I looked on my camera this morning and realized that I had 24 pictures piled up. When did that happen? I think I just innately take pictures of my food. Between this blog and food reviewing, I can't help it. haha You understand...
PBB&J
This is so good. Why it never became as popular as your good ole' PB&J, I'll never know! PJ's Organic Chicken Burrito
Not bad stats!
Not Bad Ingreeeds!
However, it just wasn't quite what I was expecting. The tortilla was very "flour-y" and more like a cast. Odd comparison, but it was very thick, hard and overbearing in some areas and too doughy in others. It was just different...and I wasn't really diggin' it.
The inside was okay, but you are talking to a girl who loves refried beans. Basically, this filling had the same texture as my aforementioned love. The fact that this supposedly has chicken in it is a little intriguing. It must be shredded and ground super fine...

Healthy Choice is not always the most delicious choice. Am I right? Well, their new look came along with new offerings, so I decided to pick up some Ravioli Florentine Marinara and give 'em another try. In a nut shell, here are my thoughts:
  • The sauce was divine... a lovely marinara, not a spaghetti sauce. There's a difference!
  • The pasta was cooked perfectly and had a ricotta like filling! :D
  • The cheese was a little chewy and there was just too much of it. I ate my fair share (and a few bite-fulls of solely cheese) and there was still 2 tabelspoon sized clumps left when I was finished! Cut back on the cheese HC!
  • I added frozen broccoli after mixing it up half way through micro-ing and this really added alot to the overall feel of the dish. I think HC should make that a permanent addition!
Overall, if you can get past the abundance of cheese, this was REALLY GOOD!
Yoplait True Delights Lemon Torte tastes EXACTLY like homemade lemon squares. You know...these guys.
CLIF Chocolate Brownie. Hmm...this fuel seems fitting becase climbing a cliff almost parallels my strenuous school work in intensity! ;)
This was so rich and decadent, I might as well have been eating brownie batter! :D
