Food Reviews and Amy's Coupon Giveaway!

If I had to chose a fruit (other than a melon) to bowl with, I would choose a pomello.

3 hours, 13 minutes, and 42 seconds after beginning to peel the pomello, I found the fruit. The pomello is deceivingly not as large as it looks. After being peeled, it is roughly the size of a grapefruit…and 3-4x the cost of a grapefruit.

While delicious, the pomello was a bit laborious and spendy for my practical self. But, to each the own! I enjoyed trying it regardless ;)

I have had some yummy eats lately that I’ve been saving up to share!

Amy’s Organic burritos! YUM! These burritos are delicious, quick, and highly nutritious — high in fiber, low in fat, and a good source of protein! Oh, and less than 300 calories each!

Thank you, Amy’s for sending some burritos to samples and coupons! :)

Lifeway Organic Kefir!

Most yogurts on the market contain 1…maybe 2…possibly 3 live and active cultures to promote healthy gut bacteria. Kefir? 10 life and active cultures! 1 cup of low-fat Kefir contains 2 grams of fat, 125 mg. sodium, 3 grams of fiber, and 11 grams of protein! Kefir is thick and comes in delicious flavors like Pomegranate/Acai, Strawberry, Cherry, Blueberry, and Pomegranate! Yummm! Love Kefir!

Thank you, Kefir for the awesome samples!!! :)

Love Amy’s products? GOOD!

    I love Amy’s soups. They have some great gluten-free options! I also had a gluten-free tortilla bowl that was really impressive. I’m not a big fan of frozen meals, but if I am going to have one, I will choose Amy’s without question.

    Im torn for which Amy’s product is my favorite. The broccoli pot pie has always been the winner, but now I think its tied with the chunky tomato bisque.
    Ive never been disappointed with anything they make though.

  9. 9

    I’ve never tried Amy’s burritos and have always wanted too. Especially after seeing that pic of yours!

    That fruit looks too complicated for me :)

  10. 10

    I love pomellos…yes, a bit pricy, but they just make me excited for some reason. I love Amy’s frozen Mexican tofu scramble!!

    What is the difference between a pomello and a grapefruit? I love grapefruit!

      Nicole says:

      I’m not exactly sure, Suzi…but they sure taste the same. The pomello is a bit dryer, but other than that I didn’t see any real different in taste!

  12. 12

    I LOVE Amy’s burritos! And their soups! So good!

    Tina says:

    Haha! That is a big fruit. That picture is so funny and cute :)

    I’ve only ever had Amy’s burritos, but I love them! They are so so good. What a great giveaway.

    applec says:

    I think I’ve tackled one of those over skinned – over sized pomellos before. I was so disappointed because when I finally found the fruit, it was so dry! At that point, I decided never to challenge my love of grapefruits again.

    I’ve never tried Kefir. Other than the nutrition/cultures that you pointed out, what makes it different from yogurt?

    Sarah says:

    I love Amy’s Black Bean Soup. It is very tasty and extremely filling.

    Great product finds :)

    My favorite Amy’s product is the no cheese roasted vegetable pizza (I was eating it when I got engaged:)

  17. 17

    I LOVE trying new fruits. The pomello looks so fun!

    I’ve only had an Amy’s meal once (an Indian dish), but I would LOVE to try the Margherita Pizza. Everytime I see a picture of Amy’s pizza, I drool a little bit.

  18. 18

    I love the Amy’s frozen lemon poppyseed cakes!! They are really freaking amazing. I don’t even heat it up before eating…simply remove from freezer, slice, and enjoy. hahaha

    I do love Amy’s, especially their soups! But…. no need to enter me in this contest since I was able to get some coupons at my local grocery store a few weeks ago :-) . I do really want to try Lifeway Organic Kefir some time though – I can’t wait to hear what you have to say about the flavors!

  27. 27

    I just saw a pomello in the grocery store the other day and thought to myself, what is that?!?!?! Now I know!

    I love Amy’s products so much…if I had to pick a favorite, I would say the teriyaki wrap. Or maybe the split pea soup! :)

  28. 28

    Haven’t tried Amy’s products – that burrito sounds great!

    kaitm says:

    I’ve never tried any Amy’s products before, but I’ve heard great things about the soups and have been waiting to run out of what I already have to buy some. I plan on starting with the Organic Butternut Squash (light in sodium) or the Chunky Tomato Bisque (light in sodium). YUM!

    Did it taste like a grapefruit?

    I really like Amy’s veggie burgers. I wish they were less expensive. Coupons would help!!!

  38. 38

    I like Amy’s Chunky Tomato Bisque soup. I used to eat a frozen spinach burrito type thing that she made. I wonder if she still makes those. It was GOOD.

    Anna says:

    I’d love to try the burritos. My coworker just got hooked on Amy’s Indian meals. In the non-burrito land, I’d like to try some of her low-sodium options, and I also hear that as far as canned soups go, hers are worth trying… I’m always wary of canned soup though… so I think I’d stick with the burritos for now.

    I have the best picture of my mom’s face the first time she (finally) opened a pomelo. It was priceless – the shock at the flesh to peel ratio.

  49. 49
    Melissa says:

    I LOVE Amy’s foods period! I definitely like the tofu and veggie bowl and the enchiladas. Those are probably my favorite.

    Wait, you seriously WON all those kefirs?!?! wow! What a giveaway!

    Ok, I love Amy’s burritos, LOVE them, but can’t eat them anymore. SO I guess my favorite Amy’s product would be their gluten free pizza :) I haven’t had it yet, but I’m sure it’s fantastic like everything else they make!

    Note to self: Don’t buy pomellos. I have when foods take a long time to peel!

    My favorite Amy’s product is the low-sodium spicy chili, but a close second are the apple toaster pastries.

  56. 56

    I love Amy’s burritos. I bought several new (to me) ones the other day, and hubby ended up taking the tofu one to work. It’s funny because I had been looking forward to trying it, and I didn’t think he’d care for it that much. But he absolutely loved it.
