Kasha is one of my favorite side dished. Just add Shell noodles. It tastes even better when you cook the Kasha with a Telma Cube.

Heidi's Cottage Classics Whole Wheat Cottage Cheese Pancake Mix, 12-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) Review

I ordered these as an alternative to high glycemic-index, calorie/sugar rich pancakes (which I love), enticed by the whole wheat and protein advertised but still pretty skeptical. I was pleasantly surprised to find that these are really delicious--they take a little longer than normal pancakes to cook, thanks to the thick consistency created by the cottage cheese, but they taste really good and are very good for you (if you use fat-free cottage cheese and egg whites instead of the usual ingredients, its even better for you and still tastes great). I spread mine with sugar-free strawberry jam and douse them with sugar-free syrup: perfect!
What's more, after two medium sized pancakes (the smallest recipe size on the box makes about four medium pancakes) you're really full, so you don't need much mix to make yourself and a friend some healthy breakfast!

Let's Do Organic Ice Cream Cones, 12-Count Boxes (Pack of 12) Review

Let's Do Organic Ice Cream Cones, 12-Count Boxes (Pack of 12)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The most delicious ice cream cones I've ever had (besides freshly made waffle cones). They actually have a real flavor to them which is opposed to most ice cream cup cones. I prefer ice cream cup style cones to sugar cones and these are my favorite. They also are the only brand I've seen that do not have any partially hydrogenated oils in the ingredients. Unfortunately, Amazon won't ship these to Alaska and they stopped selling these in the stores up here so I am thinking about buying a waffle cone maker.

Betty Crocker Muffin Mix, Wild Blueberry, 18.25-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 12) Review

Betty Crocker Muffin Mix, Wild Blueberry, 18.25-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 12)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I use two cans of the blueberries with one packet of the muffin mix for 6 jumbo muffins. Later, I add 1 tsp cinnamon to the extra mix packet to make apple cinnamon muffins. All the directions are the same, except add 2 peeled, cored, and finely chopped apples at the end (instead of the blueberries.) I make 6 jumbo muffins and bake them for 25 minutes at 350. As the oven heats, I heat the pan, then spray it well with food release spray, this makes for an easy release, because (I was told by a pro) the pores of the pan are open and really seal to the spray.)
Whatever you do, don't heat the oven over 375. They burn. (Each of these muffins (whether apple or cinnamon) count as one fruit serving, since they each contain enough fruit.)
OR: Even better, you can substitute Bobs Red Mill Golden Flax Seed meal for ALL, or half, (start with half) of the fat! Try this! The muffins are actually MOISTER and stay FRESH longer, PLUS they pack a WOLLOP of GOOD fats and FIBER, and many other nutrients - without ANYONE noticing! Golden Flax is the sweet, tastiest flax, so dont hesitate to try it! Bob's Red Mill Organic Golden Flaxseed Meal, 16-Ounce Packages (Pack of 4). PS These muffins can be stickier on the pan, so HEAT the muffin tin while the oven preheats, then SPRAY thoroughly inside, even letting the pan release spray pool a little in the bottom. Instant Release! (You also get a nicer "crust" by preheating the pan.) These disappear FAST at our house, but of course I dont tell anyone (all males) that they are HEALTHY! Enjoy!

Nana's Cookie Bars Review

(More customer reviews)
I've had the other Nana's No Gluten Cookie Bars in Berry Vanilla, and they aren't that good. But, the Chocolate Munch flavor is good. They are more moist, have a good flavor and a little crunch. The only reason I'm giving it four stars instead of five is that the texture is a little bit crumbly. I will be buying these again.

Carba-Nada Low Carb Egg Fettuccine Pasta 10 oz. bag Review

Carba-Nada Low Carb Egg Fettuccine Pasta 10 oz. bag
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These noodles are the best low carb noodles I have ever eaten. Everytime my grocery store get a shipment, I go and buy at least a couple of bags. They cook in minutes and they absorb the flavor of whatever you add them to. I made chicken alfredo,and tuna noodle casserole. Everything I have tried with these, has been a hit. I even use them for non low carbers and they can't tell the difference. Try for yourself. They are absolutely wonderful.

NOT FOR INDUCTION OR ONGOING WEIGHT LOSS PHASES OF THE ATKINS DIET. Carba-Nada Pasta is a great tasting reduced carb pasta and not an ultra low carb pasta.A reduced-carb pasta with wonderful taste and texture! To top it off, because Al Dente pasta cooks in just 3 minutes, it has a remarkably low glycemic index, slowing the rate at which it is digested. Healthy and all-natural. Since 1981, Al Dente's reputation has been based on its famous ""tender but firm"" texture that tastes just like home made. Their Carba-Nada line includes Basil Fettuccine, Roasted Garlic Fettuccine, Lemon Pepper Fettuccine and Egg Fettuccine. By substituting wheat gluten, fiber, and high-protein soy flour for some of the semolina of normal pasta, Al Dente has succeeded in bringing the total carb count down to 18 net grams per serving. Al Dente has succeeded in making a great tasting, low-carb pasta when others have failed. Because Al Dente is one of the few pasta companies in the country to sheet rather than extrude their dough, they are able to achieve a texture that is more similar to traditional fresh egg pasta. This method, along with the great, all-natural flavors, give a real taste treat to the millions of people who do not want to give up pasta even though they are on low-carb diets. Al Dente Pasta Company has found a wonderful balance - a great tasting pasta with a lower carb count (18g net carbs per serving) vs. regular pasta (45g or more per serving). Now we know 18g Net Carbs is not right for everyone but when you are close to your goal or want to have that occasional pasta treat, Carba-Nada will satisfy you. Nutrition Facts: Serving Size 1 1/2 cups - 2 oz. dry (56g), Servings Per Container 5, Total Calories 140, Calories From Fat 10, Total Fat 1g, Saturated Fat 0g, Trans Fat 0g, Cholesterol 10mg, Sodium 80mg, Total Carb 24g, Dietary Fiber 6g, Sugars 0g, Protein 12g. *Net Carbs = 18g per serving. Ingredients: Semolina, wheat gluten, malto-dextrin (fiber), soy flour, whole eggs.
