Giveaway Day!!! :)

I have been SO excited to do this giveaway for awhile.  This product is something I LOVE, plus I haven’t seen a giveaway for this stuff in blog world yet!! :) 

You might remember a few months ago I was sent a sample from Just Tomatoes.
DSC_1148 A whole box of goodies… which included dried mango, veggies, strawberry/banana mix, fruit munch, strawberry and blueberry powder!
DSC_1141
None of them contain anything except the fruit or veg stated… super clean delicious snack!

I tried VERY hard to not eat any of it until my upcoming trip.
 Because they are so light, but filling they would have been a perfect travelling companion!!    BUT… they kept calling my name and now everything is gone!! 

My very favourite was the strawberries ‘n bananas.
DSC_1147
It was crunchy, fruity and really satisfied my craving for something sweet!   And it’s really a no guilt snack!   Perfect!

I also really enjoyed the strawberry powder! 
DSC_1144
It’s made from "just" strawberries and is amazing in a smoothie and I also made chocolate strawberry oatmeal!! :)  *drools*
____________________________

    I went to the Just Tomatoes site and because I love names, decided to learn why they picked that name. Just Tomatoes is about keeping their ingredients simple and transparent. As much as I've been reading lately about the dangers of hidden ingredients, I think my new motto will be: Just Tomatoes...please!

    Hi there Betty
    Wanted to let you know that I became a fan of Just Tomatoes FB page. You want to know a secret? I don't even like tomatoes! Well, at least I don't like them raw. I love 'em in pizza sauce and spaghetti sauce, and salsa, and ketchup...you get the idea!

    Hi Betty. I think you said to leave separate comments for each of these activities, so here I am again. Wanted to let you know that I became a fan of your FB page. Do you see how intent I am at giving myself a good chance to win this prize? The idea of making my favorite spinach smoothies with that strawberry mix has the better of me!

    Hi! I went to the Just Tomatoes site and learned that they have some REALLY cool products. I had never even HEARD of the powders before- that's just genius! And their dried apples look so amazing and I will have to order some for my next road trip for sure!

    I loved learning that their products contain no additives- no salt, no sweeteners, no preservatives :) That's so great to hear and I've already added them to my list of favorites :) Thanks for sharing this, Jess!!!

    I went to the website when you mentioned it before and everything looks awesome! I LOVE to snack on dried fruit. I've tried different kinds and have found some to be pretty good but I haven't tried these yet. I might just have to place an order! I have some friends who eat the same things so they might go in on a big order or something. Awesome giveaway, thanks! I don't do twitter or facebook. I just don't have the time! Thanks though.

    Hey there!

    What a FANTASTIC giveaway - I am dying to try out these products because they sound pretty great.

    I tweeted it and watch for a blog post about this coming soon. :)

    As for the Just Tomatoes website, I have to say my favourite is the recipe section - you can search for recipes baased on meal categories and one of the categories is "backpacking" which is really cool.

    Nicely done!

    I love the fact that the containers are recyclable AND that JT offers cute suggestions as to how to re-use the containers. And I learned that the Mango powder is 50% off right now which means I may be getting me some regardless of the contest. Mmm... mango...

    (Also wanted to say that just because I haven't been posting over at NV doesn't mean I haven't been reading your blog. I love hearing all the wedding deets as I got married just a little less than a year ago and am enjoying reminiscing about everything I went through. :) )

    Just Tomatoes is a company that sells unique dried fruits and veggies with no added ingredients.

    I am a teacher and I like that there are 'teacher resources' that can be used when teaching about nutrition.

    Also I have just changed my 'eating' I am on week 7 of cutting out dairy/eggs, and sugar (when possible). Any quick easy healthy snack ideas to eat 'on the go' are great!

    Tips for Use


    Before you eat them all... add a few to cereal, sauces, baked goods, smoothies. Eat with Just Gone Bananas for a fun, 'good for you' treat. Use our Recipe Finder for more creative ideas in using our products.
