More Whole Foods, Raw Foods, Essential Oils, & Interesting Products!

I received my latest shipment from The Raw Food World a day earlier than expected!  Here are some of the goodies I grabbed!  More bean pastas!  I decided to finally get the Mung Bean Fettuccine and the Soybean Spaghetti.  Goji Berries were at a great price so I finally stocked up.  I hope to do more breakfast bowls with them and maybe more dehydrated breakfast bars!  Avocado Oil!  A Rawkin Raw Cookie - just to splurge!  A brand new product of Organic Liquid Smoke!  And Immune Boosting Colloidal Silver.
The last month or two I noticed these new olives and have been thinking about getting them since I saw them.  I haven't tried them yet but I think I might bring some with me to my parents house over Christmas to add to the veggie trays!  There is a whole line of these olives on The Raw Food World Site but I thought I would try the Sicilian Plain, The Sicilian Hot, and the Kalamata Style.

The more I think about the Kalamata Olives - the more I want to make Dreena Burton's Quinoa Hummus Casserole with roasted veggies on top and add some of the Kalamata Olives for a kick!

I also got another new product they have on their site - the Organic Olive Paste.  It sounded interesting.  AND...FINALLY...I broke down and bought 3 Essential Oils...Lavender, Eucalyptus, and Chamomile.  More about these in the near future.

Have you tried any of these products yet?  What did you think of them?  What are your fave Essential Oils and what do you do with them - share your tips, tricks, and favorites in comments!

  2. I LOVE the mung bean fettucine noodles! They are super delicious. I love cooking them up, adding a bit of coconut aminos, a pinch of cayenne & throwing sautéed veggies on top. Yum! That brand of noodle also makes a killer black bean spaghetti noodle which is incredibly delicious with marinara sauce.
    I haven't tried that brand of liquid smoke, but really enjoy using liquid smoke for a fun, smoky flavour (chili, pasta, etc). The cookie looks especially good =)
    What fun mail you get!

    1. Their Black Bean Noodles are the first ones of that line that I tried! LOVED them! I need to jump into more of my noodles very soon! And I can't wait to try the liquid smoke! I used to NOT really like it but the older I get the more I do and from what I have heard from Matt you only need a FEW drops of it because it's intensely flavored!
