Love with Food Box - September


I'm a foodie, no hiding that so I was thrilled to be trying Love with Food! Love With Food gives around 5-10 samples of gourmet foods but here's the awesomeness portion: if you like the samples, you can purchase the full size product at a discount from their site. What?
For $10.00 a month, Love With Food does an excellent job introducing subscribers to small, independent gourmet food producers that may be relatively unknown. Recipes using at least one of the samples are posted on the website. The shipping is free with an annual subscription ($120.00), but other monthly options are available.

I think this is excellent for a person like me and for kids (you can cajole them into trying tasty health snacks) and I am definitely contemplating sending a monthly box to my sister for her to share with her college son and for the family! Why not?

Without any further ado, here's what was in my box!
PS: September’s box was curated by famous blogger - Back in Skinny Jeans, and has a vegan theme. (I'm an aspiring vegan, so I was ecstatic!)

Mascat Grape Jelly by Bonne Maman
This jelly is absolutely delish, 100% natural and free of artificial preservatives, I let my dad sample it on bread and he absolutely loved it!

Almond Butter by Barney Butter
This nut butter was absolutely creamy and delicious to eat and I actually tried it with the aforementioned jelly, and it was a match made in heaven!

San Franola Granola with raisins:
I'm no granola fan but I was willing to try. This is hand roasted which was evident in its taste, high in protein (which is always a challenge being vegan) and less sugar! Win win!

Teeccino Herbal Coffee Samples:
I tried these, wasn't truly a fan of the herbal coffees cos it was a combination of two different worlds, but I passed it on to a friend and she absolutely loved it. So do try, do!

Balsamic Vinegar by Gourmet Mist
I'm a balsamic hogger so no one in the family was allowed to share. I tried it with my salads and roasted veggies with the family and it's hit home!

Roasted Edamame by Sensible Foods
Edamame is good for you. Period. This crunchy soy beans was high in protein and fiber and made for excellent snacking.

Tropical Blend Fruit by Sensible Foods
Yet another tasty snack, With apple, banana, mango and pineapple, it made for an awesome after run snack. 

Addictive and healthy. No better way to snack!
