Ginger Lime Wellness Shots (How To)

Image
We've jumped into a new fall season and with that comes lower humidity, colder temperatures and increased indoor gatherings.  Have you already experienced a bout with the cold or flu? Has the change in weather got you feeling down and out? Hot summer nights are over and we're all forced to give welcome to more icy temperatures and wintry mixes. Now is the time to ensure that your immune system is in the right shape to fight and fend off any of those germs and respiratory viral nasties that you may come into contact with.

Reviewing Gobble: Is it Better than Hello Fresh?

Today, I’m reviewing another pre-prepped meal delivery company called Gobble.  I learned about Gobble from my sister who had a friend that recommended it to her.  Her friend loved the fact that the foods were ethnic and very quick to prepare.  


Gobble is similar to other pre-prepped meal delivery companies such as Hello Fresh and Green Chef. In the pre-prepped world of cooking, recipe ingredients arrive to your door already chopped, portioned or peeled. You’re simply responsible for cooking the chosen meals yourself.  If you are a seasoned chef or cook, then you know that this makes the work revolving around cooking extremely easy since most of your time is centered on prepping the ingredients that are needed.  

 

Gobble offers three different menus: Classic, Vegetarian and Lean and Clean.  Classic offers a variety of meals, which include meat, poultry and fish. The vegetarian menu does not include meat items and the Lean and Clean menu incorporates meals made solely with protein and healthy fats (hmm sounds like keto).  Like Hello Fresh, Gobble offers a two person plan or a four person plan for a minimum of 2, 3 or 4 nights per week.  The plans round out to $11.99 per serving.  So a two-person plan at 3 nights per week would cost approximately $72 and a four-person plan would be $144.  I'd say that Gobble is a bit more pricy than Hello Fresh.  

 

The menu is also very diverse and a typical weekly menu will offer recipes from a variety of regions.  A typical menu might include a Puerto Rican, Indian, Japanese, Greek, Italian or Mexican recipe.  A big kudos to executive chef Thomas Ricci who begins the creation of each recipe with a specific ingredient or world cuisine. This is definitely the right meal delivery program for adventurous eaters, or those who enjoy real variety when cooking or eating.  I appreciate this aspect the most about Gobble—not to mention, the cute sounding name. Cool pick!

 

The meals that I’m reviewing are 

 

“Singapore Street Noodles” and “Thai Noodle Stir Fry”









Recipes come with a recipe card listing all ingredients, needed supplies and the number of calories per serving.  The Singapore Street Noodles deserves 5 out of 5 stars!!!!! A-mmaaaazingly delicious! Whatever is in that korma spice blend…I absolutely need it. The flavorful ingredients meshed so well together (basil, thai sauce, chili garlic sauce and cilantro).  The only step I changed was frying my egg because sunny side up just isn't my thing.



                                            Pre-Prepped ingredients







Recipe cards have a “Did you know” section, which offers a fun fact about the country or an ingredient in the recipe.  From my cards, I learned that the brown color from soy sauce comes from melanoidin and Singapore is famous for food hawker stalls that immigrants from surrounding countries would bring known recipes to adapt them into the local Singaporean cuisine.





 

The Thai Noodle Stir Fry was a delicious meat free recipe that would wow any one who tried it.  The black pepper and chili garlic sauces really gave this meal a flavorful punch and made what some may consider as tasteless (tofu) so astoundingly exciting.  







I'd highly recommend Gobble to every one and I can’t speak more highly of it.  Folks, if you want to take your dinner recipe stash to the next level, try Gobble. You’ll be glad you did! You can try two meals for two for only $18!!!! What???? Yess!  Get this deal and order Gobble now by visiting the link below:

FDA Bans First FD&C Dye! Which Will be Next?

Image
The FDA has moved to finally ban Red Dye No. 3 from use in food and drugs in America.  Red Dye No. 3 was first determined to be a cancer causing color additive almost 30 years ago.  Studies conducted using labs rats found that they became inflicted with the disease after consuming large amounts of Red dye No. 3.  Thirty years ago, the FDA officially banned Red Dye No. 3 from use in cosmetics but left the door open for it to be used as a color additive in food and prescription drugs.  By January 2027, the FDA has ordered that Red Dye No 3 must be removed from all food in the USA and by 2028--from all drugs.

5 Natural Ingredients For Longevity

Image
The path of aging can be viewed as a bothersome, inevitable part of life to some.  Those invested in the journey  often look to various methods of biohacking as a way to lengthen what can be considered a short life  span.  The average life  expectancy for women is 80 years old and 74 years old for men.  Living to 100  years old may seem inconceivable but the reality is that there are individuals living past 100 years old.   According to the Pew Research Center, our global world is home to 722,000 centenarians most of whom  live in Asian countries such as Japan and China (Schaeffer, 2024).   The number of centenarians currently living is expected to quadruple  over the next 30 years. Will people begin to live past 200 and 300 years old in the near future? As scientific  discoveries continue to be made and longevity focused breakthroughs are attained, humans will live longer and more intelligently.   What are ...

Fenty Sidestick Is it All that?

Image
The Fenty Side Stick is a 3 in 1 edge styling tool.  It was mentioned in a comprehensive review  of Rihanna's hair line, however, I hadn't yet purchased it.  I wanted to briefly compare The Side Stick to the type of edge brushes that are found in your average beauty store.  The Side Stick arrived in a light orange box with the signature Fenty packaging and logo. On the back of the box, is a photo of the Side Stick.  The photo on the back of the packaging is almost the same length as the Side Stick so the user can get a sense of the actual length of the product.  When it is taken out of the package, the end piece needed to be snapped on. It's a nice rose chrome colored tail which makes for precise parting and creation of swooped styles.  If any of you ladies love your 90s Aaliyah style swooped bangs, the Side Stick is going to get you right every time! It has a duo brush and comb head instead of being at opposite ends like an average edge brush and com...
