Any client who has worked with me knows that I love Kashi products. I eat several diff
erent ones a day. They are high in fiber and yummy! For the past 3 months one of my favorite foods, the Kashi TLC Dark Chocolate cookie has been A.W.A.L. from the shelves at Target (where it is cheaper than most grocery stores). I was starting to get mad because I just figured they keep selling out as everyone discovered how great they are. Well, I just pulled up the Kashi website and found out the truth to missing the Kashi cookies — they had been recalled due to peanuts! Now it all makes sense. I finally was able to buy them again this past week and they are such a happy addition to my lunch. A cookie is 130 calories, 3 g fiber, 8 g sugar and has chocolate! One is pretty filling and satisfying for me. Keep a look out for a these cookies at Costco or other warehouse store for a great deal on 3 boxes.

Cottage Cheese January 27, 2009
Cottage cheese is kind of a gross sounding title for a post. Even though I love the stuff, it still sounds slightly unappetizing. But hopefully it caught your attention and now you are reading about cottage cheese.
I’m going to start posting about some of my favorite food products on the market.I am often asked about what brands are best to buy. I think there are a lot of nutrition gems hidden in the inner “forbidden” aisles of the grocery store. Hopefully this will give you some fresh ideas for food.
Today I tried a new product – Rachel’s Cottage Cheese, Cucumber and Dill flavor. This is good stuff. If you maxed out on cottage cheese on previous diets or think it just doesn’t taste that great, give this brand a try. At my Publix, there were 4 flavors to try. The product is hormone-free dairy, low fat (2g), good source of protein (14g) and moderate calories (140). I am always looking for a convenient and tasty dose of protein for my lunches. I will definitely be buying this cottage cheese again.
The company’s website it: www.rachelsdairy.com. The website did not mention cottage cheese yet. It must be pretty new. There is a place to sign up for offers and coupons. This is a picture of one of their yogurts. The cottage cheese looks very similar.
