Paleo People Review, Coupon, and Giveaway!

Thanks to the great folks at Paleo People, I am able to review all four great flavors, and you can too if you enter my giveaway and win!

Paleo is like a gourmet granola.  It comes in four flavors.

Banana Nut Crunch

Apple Crisp

Cacao Nut Gourmet

Cappuccino Crunch Gourmet


These are all great flavors, they are soft and moist clusters or small pieces.  Nice to bite into, unlike some of the harder granolas.  My personal favorite is the Banana Nut.  If you are a coffee lover you will love the Cappuccino Crunch Gourmet.

Great by itself, or mix ins for yogurt, ice cream, salads, or even in a bowl with some almond milk, very tasty!


These are great on the go bags, for work, school, hiking, trips.  They have a nice seal on top to zip closed and stay fresh.


A bit on the Company:

What Ingredients make it Paleo

Our ancestors had the secret. They gathered nuts, seeds, berries, fruits, spices and natural sweeteners - these ingredients inspired my first line of Paleo diet snacks.

Putting it all together

I began to create my recipes and started the tasting experience in my CrossFit Facility. Since The Paleo People launch date of March 2010 (formerly Paleo Women Snacks & Granolas), the testimonials kept pouring in on how tasty all the flavors were. You can purchase online now!! I am also working with food brokers to bring the paleo granolas into Natural Foods Stores across the USA. If there is a store you would like to carry The Paleo People Brand, simply present it to the grocery manager - every bit helps get Paleo out there!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Muffins

Came across this recipe today,. wanted to share, cant wait to try myself

Chocolate Peanut Butter Muffins

Crunchmaster Crackers

Crunchmaster crackers are a nice cracker with a good crunch.  I was lucky to try the Roasted Vegetable MultiGrain and the Cheddar Multigrain.







These are great for a mid afternoon snack, or when the snack craving hits you.  The Roasted Vegetable has a nice spice to it.  You can pair these up with cheese or dip, I like to eat them right out of the bag.  The bag seals for freshness so good for taking to work, or on the go.

• All Natural
• Saturated Fat Free
• Certified Gluten Free
• Cholesterol Free
• 21g Whole Grain per Serving

They also make a sea salt version that is dairy free


A little of whats in the crackers.

 It's not so much what's inside our crackers as what's not inside. At Crunchmaster, we believe in keeping our products simple and real. We don’t put in any artificial flavors, preservatives or other icky stuff.

Our products are only made with all natural ingredients like pure, California grown rice, sesame, quinoa, amaranth and flax seeds.



I also tried the multigrain crisps which come in a box.  I put almond butter on, the perfect treat for a late night snack. These are vegan and dairy free.

Monical's Pizza Arbor Vitae, WI (near Minocqua) Gluten Free Pizza

I was searching for a great place to get some gluten free food or a pizza while visiting the Minocqua area this past week.  I was lucky enough to come across Monicals Pizza, a cute little place on the water.   Keep in mind if you come at dinner time there will be a wait, in fact we had to come back the next day, as I had three restless kids that were hungry.  We decided to come half an hour early the next day at 5, on a Friday and we were lucky to get one of the last tables.  If you have older kids there is a game room area to wait in with a bar, just bring change.

Anyway asked the server if they had gluten free crusts in and thank goodnes they did.  It was a 10 inch pizza, I ordered the veggie, which had onions, green peppers, mushrooms, green olives, black olives, and tomatoes.  I skipped the hot peppers, the size was perfect, in fact I think I ate too much as I only left one piece.  The crust was perfectly crisp, and tasted as good as any gluten pizza, a bit crisp on the ends, but overall I really enjoyed it.  I would  return again if in the area.

I also stopped by a place called http://www.wildberrymarket.org/  .  It was a nice little organic market with gluten free options like granola bars, udis bread, brownies, nuts, and so much more. 

Another place I didnt get a change to try is http://www.hvfoodgallery.com/  . I have read good reviews on it for salads and lighter meals.

Two Moms In The Raw Review

Thanks to these gracious people for letting me sample some of their terrific food.

Here is a bit of information on this company

Only Organic, Kosher, Gluten Free, Vegan ingredients are used in the handmade production of our Granola Bars, Nut Bars, Sea Cracker, Truffles and Cereals.  We look forward to hearing from you so please…drop us a note or give us a call!














First I will start with their delicious blueberry bar, this was perfect for my break time at work.  Very filling and delicious, and also good for you, great for travel, even though I am not a huge blueberry fan I really liked this bar, and it wasn't overwhelming at all, love the walnuts, pecans, and almonds combo.


My next favorite is the Cacao Truffles, Wow, these are delicious, come three in a pack, while I only ate two they were so good I could have eaten three of them.   I love that this is all natural and organic, this made a good night time snack for me, when that craving hits you.





























I also tried the Tomato Basil Sea Crackers, they have a great crunch to them, great for a mid day craving for something crunchy and satisfying. These were also great in soup, and I am going to try them in my salad next time instead of croutons, yummy!

 

They also make a granola that comes in bars in a bag.  For information and how to get these items go to
