TERA'S WHEY - Love the name!

I came across Tera's Whey when I was shopping at a local Fresh and Natural Store. I wasn't even looking for protein powder that day, but the name caught my eye. Seeing Tera's Whey on the package made me instantly pick it up....like it was made just for me. When I saw that it was gluten free I decided to buy it. After I got home I looked up Tera's Whey's website and discovered what an AWESOME company it really was. Not only did the product have a pretty cool name, but they are local (to me) and have a revolutionary way of making whey:


    I tried the Fair Trade Organic Dark Chocolate Whey Protein  and the Organic Bourbon Vanilla Whey Protein. I mixed the Vanilla Whey with 8 oz. of water in my shaker after a workout and I was pleasantly surprised. The whey easily mixed in the shaker (without clumps) and had a great creamy texture. No gross “fake sugar” after taste like most protein powders.  When I tried the Chocolate Whey, I had just finished a run and needed some extra carbs and natural sugars to help me recover. I mixed ½ c. of milk, ½ c. water, ½ of a banana, 4 crushed ice cubes and the whey in my Magic Bullet. WOW – it was like a Malt!!!!  So good.

    My rating on Tera’s Whey: 5 stars!!!



    It's A Miracle!!


    Since I am now on the "low carb" part of my Show Prep Diet, I am SERIOUSLY craving my rice noodles. I've tried other gluten free noodles, but Thai Rice Noodles are by far my favorite. Before my diet revamp, I lived off of rice noodles. Rice noodles with chicken, rice noodles with veggies, rice noodles with shrimp, rice noodles in my orange juice. Ok, so I got a little carried away one time. But honestly, every day I made my rice noodles, threw in some type of extra & covered it in spaghetti sauce. Voila! Instant yumminess! I seriously believe that I had to have been a fat, Italian man in some past life because I LOVE my noodles with red sauce! And when they were eliminated from my diet, let's just say that I was a VERY unhappy girl!
    That is until I found The Miracle Noodle. Miracle Noodles are GLUTEN FREE, SOY FREE, CALORIE FREE & CARB FREE noodles made from Konnyaku Flour (Konnyaku Flour is a soluable fiber is supposed to  slows digestion and give you that "full" feeling). Miracle noodles come in a a few different varieties - rigatoni, orzo, fettucini, mini pearls. I decided to try the angle hair. These "miracle noodles" sounded too good to be true, so I had to give them a try.

    My rating on The Miracle Noodles: 5 stars!!!
