Food Finds - Part 2

Here are some more things that I suggest you give a try. They are pretty tasty and come in handy when you are eating healthier.

Vita-Brownies - this little pieces of deliciousness really hit home and get rid of that chocolate craving you may have. And for 1 point, they are a bargain. I will admit, they aren't all that cheap but then again, healthy eating isn't cheap on the wallet. I have found these in Stop & Shop however, I order them directly from the maker. They usually have some sort of coupon to put towards the order and they are shipped directly to your door (what's better than that?!?!). So check out this place and get yourself some brownies!!!

Vitatops - Made by the same company that makes the brownies. Some of the flavors are hit and miss. My favorites are the corn (warm these up in the toaster.... yum yum), deep chocolate and triple chocolate vitatops. These tops are fortified with vitamins and only cost you 1 point each. You might be able to find some in the market but visiting their website will be a sure hit. Note: I am not crazy about their regular vitamuffins. For some reason, I like the flavor and texture of the vitatops better than the vitamuffins.

Veggie Crisps - There are several brands of veggie crisps, however, my favorite is the Stop and Shop Nature's Promise brand of veggie crisps. These are a great alternative to potato chips. Even my husband likes them and he's the king of the Dorito! Great flavor, just the right amount of salt and you get a lot of crisps in one serving. For 3 points, this is a great side to have with a sandwich or even as a crunchy snack!

Hebrew National 97% Fat-Free Hot Dogs - Don't feel like cooking a big meal? Are you just hankering for a hot dog? Try these! One point each, all beef franks. Yummy! Want more info? Go here!

Kashi Go Lean Hearty Oatmeal - Well, its fall and I love having oatmeal for breakfast in the fall. Something about the cool mornings and the toasty warm oatmeal. Ahhhhh. Anyway, my favorite oatmeal is the Kashi Go Lean. Its very hearty, sticks to your ribs and comes in 2 flavors. I really like the honey & cinnamon flavor. Oh, and I forgot to mention, one packet is only 2 points. Enjoy with a glass of fat-free milk and a piece of fruit for a great breakfast!
