Juice Time Tuesdays, Lush Nuts - Original, Sprouting Kits, Near Future Plans


The Juice Guru is starting up Juice Time Tuesdays and you can read more about that here.  I will be doing my own version of Juice Time Tuesdays and blogging about it!  Since I didn't have enough Fresh Produce to do juicing this morning I am doing a Smoothie instead for this evening as a snack/dessert.  I'm thinking something with Berries and maybe Mango!  I will be posting the Aftermath tomorrow!  BUT...hopefully more organized for next Tuesday!

Since I had such a lengthy post yesterday I wasn't able to tell you about my very first experience with Lush Gourmet Foods YET...until today that is!  I received a nice package from them yesterday and inside were samples of their nuts!  I decided to kick things off with their original flavor.  I have to say I LOVE their website!  It's straight and to the point!  Check it out

All of their flavors and flavorings for their product line are vegan (among other wonderful things just take a look at their About Us Tab) so I don't have to worry about what's in them!  YAY!

This original flavor is the BASE for all of their flavors (and then they just build it on from there!)  As for the original flavor and the base flavor I REALLY love the flavor!  It's sweet with just a little bit of salt!  Perfect Ratio of flavors here and does WONDERS for the midday munchies attack I was having yesterday!  Just a nice-sized handful is all you really need to satisfy you!  They are absolutely delightful and I can't wait to try the other flavors!

 Another thing I am going to be doing and SOON is this Green Sprout Kit!  I received it last week and read up on it last night!  I think the whole kit is an AWESOME idea!  A perfect all-in-one product!  I don't want to get too ahead of myself YET because I do want to do a more involved review and soon!

Tonight I will also be starting in with at least 1 Algerian Food dish and post the pic and recipe tomorrow!

I have been catching up on a few projects, too, and hope to post about them very soon!  LOTS in the works just quite incomplete at the moment!  But it surely doesn't mean I haven't been busy! 

My mood has been a good one lately - I am very happy with the changes in my diet and the results I am seeing everyday!  I hope to start exercising again, gently, as I feel my foot/leg/calf/arch issues are on the up-swing! 

"See" you tomorrow!  Comment, today, I LOVE chatter!

  1. The sprouting kit looks really cute, doesn't it? What seeds will you sprout first? I've used sprouts when I've made raw veggie chips. People that tried them, raved about them even the non-veggie folks. Well, they were all like that since I'm the only one of my friends who's vegan. I'm still mainly vegan but occasionally I'll add egg to the mix. ;)

    1. I'm thinking something smaller maybe Radish or Alfalfa or a Salad Mix.

      I've been pondering a Sprout Chip in my dehydrator :) Hummmmm

      I don't want to say I am vegan because there might be a bit of butter in something at a restaurant that someone will slide in there even if I ask...but I try to eat vegan as much as I can...so I'll say mostly vegan diet or something. Or strict vegetarian, ya know?

    2. I don't worry about the occasional butter that might be in something when I go out to eat, too much hassle for me to constantly ask people if there is dairy products, you know?

  2. I love Mung Beans and Fenugreek, both hearty and fenugreek smells like licorice. The green kit looks interesting.
