Foodie Finds
Happy Thursday! I hope you are having a great week! This Thursday I decided to change things up a bit! As many of you know, one of my favorite things to do is spend excessive a bit of time every week just browsing the isles at my favorite stores in search of new food finds! Many of these items end up used in my regular meals and I never share them with you! I know, shame on me! So, after a few email requests asking me what “cool new foods” I had come across lately I thought I would share a few exciting things that I found this week. I have yet to try any of these, so if you have given any of them a try, let me know! I would love to know your thoughts, as I’m sure other readers would too!! I have a few recipes rolling around in my head for some of the items, so be on the look out!! 
I found this Earnest Eats hot oats at Target. It is made with cranberries, pumpkin seeds, almonds, flax, and more! (Insert: I tried this oatmeal and thought that it lacked flavor when cooked. However eaten plain like granola it was great!)
These Cuppa Chocolate Teas were found at Whole Foods and Fairway. Both are amazing, but the strawberry chocolate is to die for!! I have even tried making it as iced tea and it is just as amazing!
Linwoods ground flax, cocoa, strawberries and blueberries…you know I will be putting this one into a recipe soon! They also had several other flavors. This was from Whole Foods.
Skout bars. I am always picking up new bars to try! I think I could open a retail store with how many I have at home! (Whole Foods)
Sister River Foods Parma. This is a vegan Parmesan cheese sub that is made from nutritional yeast and walnuts! No, I am not vegan, but I am always looking to try new things. They also had a chipotle cayenne flavor, but all of them were passed the expiration date. This was also a Whole Foods find.
So, it looks like I have some new (and hopefully) yummy stuff to try out! I can’t wait!
*Have you tried any of these items before? What did you think?
*What is your latest ‘foodie find’?
*Do you enjoy scouting out new products when you are in the stores or do you just grab what you need and go?
