Vega Vega Vegaaaaaaaaaa

I know Vega products are super loved in blog land…  and I am here to spread my love for my Vega products I received a few weeks ago!!

I got these bars x2

Move over Amazing Grass bars – I have found my new favorite bars… I loved these, they tasted a bit earthy with a fantastic crunch, thanks to sprouted buckwheat!   I love love loved the crunch!  

These bars are RAW, SPROUTED, GLUTEN FREE, ALKALINE FORMING and Ve Ve Ve VEGAN!

These bars pack a punch too with loads of fibre and 9g of fibre per 200 calorie bars! 

I think my favourite was the Green one, but they were all very tasty!!

downside – these puppy’s sell for around $2.99 each.   They will definitely be something I stock up on when they are on sale!!

Next up…

Whole Food Smoothie Infusion!

I have seen this gracing the grocery store shelves for awhile, but because I haven’t been able to buy a smaller sample pack, I haven’t tried it yet  ( I am VERY picky with my smoothie additions) So I was excited to see it in my sample pack from Kelly @ Vega!!

This stuff is brilliant.  It adds great flavor to your smoothie, along with protein, fiber, Omega 3s and greeeeeennnnnnsssss!!!

It’s smooth and makes you feel like you are getting all the goods you need to start your day. 

The protein source is YELLOW PEA protein… and per 30g scoops has 14g protein, 6g fibre!! 

I love this, and would buy it again in a second!! 

The Vega crew has a great website as well as the founder has a very inspirational book and website called www.thethrivediet.com  that has a sample of great whole food/vegan recipes!!  

Plus for all my Canadian readers, Vega is a Vancouver based company!!  SWEET!!

Thanks Kelly for these great samples!

Let me know your thoughts of Vega Products, have you tried any??

ps.  I am looking for a reader to fill out my “get to know you” weekend post… let me know if you want to do it!!
