Yum of the Day/Tasty Tuesday

 

 I found this recipe on Lauren Conrad's website. I tried it tonight & it's really good. I think I might add a little more honey & cinnamon though. I used Vanilla Rice Milk instead. Here is the recipe.

Ingredients:
1 cup almond milk
1 tsp honey
2 drops vanilla extract
A pinch of cinnamon

Pour the milk into a microwave safe mug and cook it in the microwave until the milk begins to foam. Stir in the honey and vanilla, then sprinkle with cinnamon. Enjoy warm. This is also a great solution to try if you often have trouble sleeping.

Yum of the Day~Gluten free chocolate chunk cookies

I love to have snacks after dinner & I love to bake when the weather gets cooler. My friend recommended Immaculent baking company's chocolate chunk cookie dough. It's gluten free. She said that she likes them more than regular chocolate chip cookies. We made some last night & they are really good. You just put them on a cookie sheet & pop them in the oven. My daughter & hubby loved them too. I'm going to try some more products from that company soon.

 

 

Yum of the day~Say Cheese crackers

I've been seeing a nutritionist & I am trying to be gluten free. Not easy for me because I love bread & pasta. But little by little I am finding foods & snacks that I like. I bought these Van's crackers yesterday & they are really good. The whole family loves them. They are my new fave snack.

When I went away last weekend we all brought food. 1 of my friends brought French Vanilla Stonyfield yogurt & another brought Wild Harvest Natural Blueberry flax granola cereal. They are now my fave snack/lunch. I buy the lowfat yogurt though. I'm trying to eat healthier & these are the perfect snacks.

I saw these in a magazine recently & decided to try them. They are so good. This is my new nightly snack.

It's back, the Shamrock shake at McDonald's. It seems like it comes out earlier each year. I'll be having a few more before St. Patty's day.

 

Yum of the day/New England Minute

 

Today's Yum is a local wine. My friend brought it to our house on Christmas eve. It's really good. Strawberry flavored. I bought a bottle a few weeks ago, but have been sick, so I haven't had any yet. The vineyard is in Sandown, NH.

 

 

 

Yum of the day~Toffee coffee

 

I'm not a coffee drinker, never have been. I always wanted to like coffee to help me wake up & to go hang out at cool coffee shops, but it's just not my thing liking coffee. It taste like ashes to me. I do like Dunkin donuts, Dunkachinos. A few weeks ago I had a Tastefully simple party & my friend (the host) brought this drink to try & I loved it. It's really sweet (I love sweet) & it has a lot of calories & sugar. So I think I will only have 2 a week. Wednesday's we have to get up early because we have to get to dance class, so that will be a good day & maybe on Mondays.

Teavana's-Cacoa mint black tea. I just tried this today. It's super yummy. I'm a total tea girl.

Starbucks Green tea Frappucino (got it yesterday without the whip cream). So yummy.

Yum of the Day

My Yum of the day is a yummy creamy one. This has become my nightly snack. It's great for this time of year. It's been pretty hot & humid here in New Hampshire.

Yum of the day

I found these in the grocery store the other day. I had never heard of them. I've really gotten into quinoa lately. I also like flax & have heard how good chia seeds are. They are really good. I start eating them & can't stop. That's not so good. Even if something is healthy, too much of a good thing isn't good.

Yum of the Day

I just found this yogurt last week when I was food shopping. It's suppose to be for kids, but I ate most of them. It's so good. I'm going food shopping tomorrow & getting more.

Yum of the day

I've had different flavors of the Daily's frozen alcohol drinks, but this is my fave so far, Pomegranite acai margarita.

Yum of the Day

I went food shopping yesterday & saw these. They are really good. I'm a huge fan of Wheat thins anyway.
