Grocery Highlights

This week month is flying by… Can you believe it’s almost Christmas?!  To add to my usual dose of holiday stress, I discovered some fraudulent charges on one of my credit cards.  It’s definitely a pain to get everything straightened out.  Tis the season… for credit card fraud! 

After several phone calls to customer service, I finally made it to the grocery for my weekly visit.  There are a few items I’m especially excited about…

  1. Sabra’s Chipotle Hummus-  If you like your hummus with a kick, you should definitely try this flavor.  Cory loves this flavor!  I enjoy hummus with whole grain crackers (such as Kashi), whole wheat pita bread, fresh bell pepper sticks, or carrot sticks.DSC04362
  2. Roasted Cashews-  I have been rotating between pumpkin seeds and almonds lately.  When I spotted this bag of cashews at the grocery, I was ready to spice things up a bit.  Is it me or do some brands of nuts taste better than others?  Call me crazy but I am not a fan of Planters nuts. DSC04363
  3. Terra Sweet Potato Chips-  After reading Gina’s post on Terra chips, I knew I had to try them soon.  Wow… these chips are so good. Cory said and I quote, “These are so delicious!”  He actually requested that I hide the bag after a few minutes.  With “No Salt Added”, the chips contained only 10 mg Sodium per serving.  The standard “Low Sodium Diet” allows up to 2,000 mg Sodium per day.  While they do contain 11 grams fat per serving, only 1 gram of fat is saturated fat with the rest unsaturated fat (0 trans fat).  Did I mention there is 3 grams of fiber per serving?  I think I’m in love <3DSC04371DSC04373
  4. Butternut Squash-  I made sure to buy another one while it was still in season because I was craving butternut squash fries!!!  DSC04368
  5. Luna Lemon Zest Bar-  My local grocery store does not carry Larabars (Gasp!).  I have been craving the Larabar Lemon Bar so I settled for the Luna’s version of a lemon bar.  DSC04365 It was good but I still prefer Larabars!
  6. Castello di Gabbiano Chianti Wine-  This bottle was on sale for $6.29!  Of course, I had a glass when I got home.  The verdict- A good wine with a great price!DSC04370
