    Thought of y'allnkzmm6lk8zcm.jpg

    I'd buy those on sale but 14g of protein for 280 calories is a joke. I'm just so peeved by all those 'protein' products that have such a bad ratio of protein per calories.

    Had these Cauliflower pancakes from Trader Joe’s for dinner last night. Cooked in pan with cooking spray. They are good!

    Bought this from Trader Joe’s as a Thanksgiving side dish. Looks good!

    Finally found the So Delicious mousse!!! There’s two Walmart I’ve found where I’m at in Florida right now. The one has the Mango mousse (I HATE mango so I passed), and the second had Strawberry mousse (which I got).
    I was worried when I was dishing it out and saw pea protein in the ingredients... I hate that stuff with a passion. But, surprisingly, I can’t tell it’s there! I would’ve never guessed! They NAILED IT. It’a exactly what I imagine an ice cream version of mousse would be like; sweet, airy, but super creamy. I’m not a big fan of fruit flavored things because they are more tart like this one was, I was just really impatient to try it, but this gives me a lot of hope for the other sweeter, more indulgent dessert mousse flavors! DEFINITELY a repeat purchase!

    I still haven't been able to find this, but I'm looking for it! Appreciate your review.

    Not new, according to the Internet. But new to me. I saw someone at work had one last week and was drawn in by the low calorie count! Really good, as far as microwave meals go. The green beans needed some seasoning, but everything was good. And it was comforting on a day I am recovering from sickness and it's raining outside.

    I wish I would've listened to the negative reviews on the Reese's canned whipped cream! I didn't note much peanut butter flavor whatsoever. Big fail.

    Blue Bunny has Peppermint Stick ice cream out & it just made me sad that Holidoodle once again is not coming back.

    It couldn't be worse than the reddi whip non dairy whipped cream made with almond milk I tried over the weekend. I like almond milk with my cereal but this just left a bad after taste. I DID like that it came in a smaller can (even tho it was pretty expensive even on sale) because I tend to just squirt canned whipped cream in my mouth and not weigh or log it or anything. So the can was something like 320 calories as opposed to the huge can of regular fat free whipped cream at 720 calories. Both with 10 calories per serving.

    I'm tempted to try the non dairy whipped cream made from coconut milk just in case it's better.

    I happen to LOVE this whipped cream made from coconut milk. I hope they still make it since I haven't bought it in awhile. zn2b9vc72yrb.png

    And trader jos had a spray one a year ago, not sure if they still carry, but it was really good. I haven't tried the reddi whip one yet. Looks like they discontinued it but it was DELICIOUS!

    I do NOT recommend this brand, these were disgusting... 4s3r48vx3gn3.png

    Although my boyfriend seemed to like them a lot, I thought they both had a strange aftertaste and weird consistency.

    I tried the coconut milk whipped cream and I loved the taste of it. There were technical difficulties after I used it a few times. The coconut milk behaves differently from regular whipped cream and you have to follow the directions carefully or lots of the product could potentially get trapped in the can for eternity, which tragically happened to me. I emailed the company and they were very helpful.

    Soooooo it's not shake and aim and don't choke? :)

    I did try the TJ coconut whipped cream version @Noreenmarie1234 posted about and liked it so maybe I'll pick the reddi whip up.

    Bought these because were on sale after halloween. They were nothing great and kind of bland. Not very cheesy at all and kind of hard. I did enjoy them, but wouldn't buy again.

    kxpe7q4s15c7.jpg I actually really liked this. It wasnt a very strong pumpkin flavor but the little balls of ginger and pumpkin were really good.

  • Not sure if this has been posted already, but it's fabulous--especially mixed with Almond Joy coffee creamer:
    35 cals each...one container or tablespoon--the YUM!

    This all-in-one frozen turkey dinner from Trader Joes is pretty tasty. It's turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes in a crispy pastry shell, with separate packets of gravy and cranberry sauce. I cooked it in a toaster oven, and came out delicious! It was enough food for me and my husband, with leftovers for tomorrow. My husband wished that there was more gravy, and the cranberry sauce was too thin, but it sure was an easy way to make a pseudo-Thanksgiving dinner.

    (The cut slices actually looked more appetizing IRL than the photo appears)

    Thanks for telling us about this! I ended up buying for a dinner I was hosting and everyone LOVED it! It was awesome! I recommend it as well. I am not even a big thanksgiving food fan (I usually just like the turkey and pie, hate stuffing etc), yet I thought it altogether in a pastry was delicious. I would buy this again.

    I ended up putting mine on broil for about 10 minutes to get the outside a bit more flaky and crispy.

    This post is gonna be a Youtubers Made Me Buy It edition XD

    I tried quite a few new things because I heard multiple weight conscious youtubers raving about them. Some were good; some were underwhelming.

    1) Smart Sweets. These are a knock it out of the park find. I'm a total gummy lover. Back in the day I could easily polish off an entire bag of Welch's Fruit Snacks every day. Now that I know that's not exactly ideal, I went on the hunt for something calorie friendly and that would satisfy that sweet tooth. Enter Smart Sweets, a brand of gummies that are only 90 calories a pouch (and a good sized bag too!). There's the regular fruit bears, sour gummies, and a Swedish Fish knock-off. I actually loved the sour ones best, which is the one I thought I'd like least. They aren't too sour like Sour Patch Kids tend to be -- they're actually dusted in a light sour sugar. The Swedish Fish are my next favorite because they were a berry flavor and extremely soft. The fruit gummies were all right. I liked them well enough, but I kinda thought they just tasted like regular old gummy bears. Please seek these out at your local GNC or Whole Foods (or online). They make an awesome movie snack too! ;)
    !

    100% agree on smart sweets. I have only had the old formula which was regular and sour for 152 calories but still great. They are a tad bit pricey though, $3-$4 a portion in Canada at least

    2) Quest Tortilla Chips in Nacho Cheese. A lighter and more airy Dorito. I like them but I'm not sure I'm crazy about them yet. I just tried it a few minutes ago, so maybe I need to eat more ;) I bought them to go with my turkey meat enchiladas tonight.

    3) Built Bars. The 110 calorie protein bar, which is decidedly more candy bar to me. You can try a sampler pack of 6 bars for $3 right now with the YouTube codes floating around. They remind me of a more pillowy version of the creme-filled Whitman's chocolates. They're pretty tasty but definitely don't serve as a meal replacement. I eat them as a snack. My favorites so far were the Chocolate Raspberry and Chocolate Orange. The chocolate is definitely very nice, so if you're looking to satisfy that chocolate craving with an added protein bonus, try these. I think they have free shipping too.

    4) Smart Cakes. God, these are all over the internet now. I drove to a bagel shop 20 minutes from me because their store locator said it was sold there, and to my knowledge it's only readily available online. Only 38 calories a cupcake. The shop only had cinnamon or chocolate to purchase, so I went with cinnamon since the chocolate didn't get great reviews. I was a little underwhelmed, honestly. It wasn't bad per se, but I felt like I ate some air. I wanted it to be a little more dense than it was. The taste was nice, though-- like a Drake's Coffee Cake. I still wanna try more. I have my eye on Coconut and Lemon.

    Whew, that was lengthy. Sorry! Thanks for letting me talk about food!

    I love the smart cakes. The coconut was one of my favorites!

    The protein ones weren’t good. Loved the regular ones. They have a really nice crumbly texture which reminds me of no bake cookies. Lots of pumpkin seeds which gave them a really nice crunch. Really big for only 200 calories. Chocolate pb wasy favorite because really tasted like those no bake cookies made with rice krispies chocolate and peanut butter. ct1dmw3xtsdf.jpeg
