ExpoWest was huge, literally, the biggest Natural Foods Expo that’s out there, and I walked away with 15 Favorite items from that show. I tried to narrow it down to 10, but I just couldn’t.
1) White Girl Salsa
With a name like White Girl Salsa I knew I had to try it. And I was so glad I did. I love tomatillo’s, and this is what their salsa consists of (mild and medium) They also have a few other varieties available. Their Salsa is completely Gluten Free and yum, yum, yummy!
But the true fun came when talking to them as they prepared me for my picture 😉
2) The Bunnery
You may have heard of the restaurant in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. People have become such fan of the restaurant that they started to create their own products. Their granola is to die for, and I am a huge fan of their Cranberry Vanilla variety. They also have their own line of Pancake and Waffle mixes. I can’t wait to try them out!
3) Laughing Giraffe Organics
Did I ever tell you that I am a huge fan of macaroons? From the very first time I made my first batch I have been hooked, so when I tried the Laughing Giraffe Organics macaroons I was in heaven. Absolutely delicious coconut flavor. All ingredients are organic.
4) Noosa Yohgurt
This yohgurt was voted Best of the West by the Press, and let me tell you it’s THAT good! And I was thrilled to find out it was already available in Whole Foods Markets. The yohgurt is smooth and absolutely delicious. A heavenly treat for those yohgurt lovers out there.
5) ThinkThin Bars
From the moment I tried these delicious bars I have been hooked. I absolutely love their Cranberry and Mixed nuts bar, and also their Brownie Crunch bar. These bars are high in protein, gluten free, and zero sugar!
6) Turbana Plaintain Chips
Absolutely delicious! And btw: this won’t be the last time you’ll be hearing about these chips from me 😉
7) Love Crunch Granola
Granola with bits of chocolate in it, who doesn’t love that! But this is a granola I absolutely could snack on at any time of the day, not just in the morning. Convenient for lunches, or during the workday snack time. The chocolate is real organic italian. And has bits of berries in the mix. A sweet tasty joy.
8) Odwalla Snack Bars
I tried their newest variety: White Macadamia, and omg I could go back for seconds and thirds it was that good. Perfect for snacktime, or even after a good workout. You’ve earned it! 😉
9) Rush Bowls
What is a Rush Bowl? It’s a complete meal that truly fills you up. With granola to mix in on the top and frozen all natural blended fruit on the bottom, it’s a perfect wake me up snack. These are to be kept frozen, but they unthaw pretty fast, and are absolute divine. I am a huge fan of the Yoga flavor!
10) Oogie’s Popcorn
I am usually not a fan of popcorn, but the minute I tried Oogie’s Gourmet Popcorn I was hooked. With delicious flavors such as White Cheddar, Kettle Corn, Hatch Chili Con Queso, Romano and Pesto, Smoked Gouda and a few others. This is one popcorn I’ll be munching on in the future!
11) Justin’s Nut Butter
Justin’s launched their very own Candy Bar at ExpoWest this year, and let me tell you, it’s heavenly! Mixed with their own organize peanut butter and infused with organic chocolate. I could eat these every day and be satisfied.
12) Green Chopsticks
Their Potstickers are amazing, and the company is a ton of fun to talk to. With facilities located in Alhambra, California, it’s local, and awesome. They also offer an Organic Seaweed Snack, dumplings, and other asian specialties!
13) Peanut Butter & Company
When I tried their chocolate peanut butter I swooned. I love the combination of chocolate and peanut butter, but never thought of putting it together into one spread. And boy oh boy was I happy to taste this idea.
14) SolBites
A two pack peanut butter and jelly snack. Perfect for on the go snacking!
15) Eat Pastry
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough! Yes please. Gluten free varieties along with dairy free varieties. You keep the cookie dough refridgerated, and pop it out when you want to make a fresh batch of cookies. This is one cookie dough you can eat raw 😉
