Spiciness
So I took VeggieGirl & Em’s advice and had the Banana Cookie Larabar as my mid-am snack and I was NOT disappointed… IT was SOOOOOO good… I’m not sure how this ranks in my favorites now… I think I have too many to rank high and can’t decide which is my favorite… It was definitely better than the Lemon Bar I had yesterday, even though I liked that one too… I guess after I try more flavors, I will come up with an updated “ranking” hehe…
Lunch today was full of spices… I totally forgot that a few weeks back I picked up Amy’s Organic Vegan Chili, so I decided to give it a try today… This serving is a cup’s worth (half can), but it does look like a big serving from the picture 
I also had the LAST wheat mini bagel w/ some spicy red pepper hummus on top… All around, this was a pretty protein/veggie-packed lunch, so I’m hoping it has some staying power in my stomach! It was SO spicy that I inhaled a 32 oz waterbottle within seconds… I usually love spices (and I did) but this was spicier than I expected, still delish, though!
Hope you are all having a nice & fast Wednesday like I am (and that the sun makes an appearance for you like it did for me)!
haha banana cookie IS the best. glad you liked it too!!
Your lunch looks delicious. And I can’t find those Larabars anywhere! (I admit- I only looked at Publix…) And tips on who sells them?
I hope your hamstring feels better!
I like that chili.. but I always have to add stuff to it! Hah I guess I’ll never get over not making my own =]
If you like red pepper hummus.. you should try making red pepper lentil dip! It’s basically hummus.. but it has lentils? LOL look at my blog =]
And am I the only one who HATES lara bars?
PHEW!! I’m glad that Em and I had a good suggestion – now you must try the pistachio one!! :0D
oooh, I LOVE spicy dishes – yum!!
I have been on a huge spicy kick lately! (Incase you didn’t notice the contant jalapeno olives, pepper jack cheese, and straight up jalapenos on my blog! lol) I might have to pick myself up a can of this! I tried Amy’s Southwest Veggie soup once and it was super spicy!
Em & VeggieGirl ~ thanks for the suggestion
Ashley ~ I can’t find them locally around me either, except in a health foods store & on their website… However I hear WholeFoods & TraderJoes sells them! Good luck!
Erika ~ Mmmm, never thought about adding stuff to it… That would be great w/ more veggies… I am definitely going to attempt the lentil dip!!
Chandra ~ hehe, I have noticed! You would definitely love this chili
I’ve never tried that chili. =( It looks so good though! I’m a huge fan of Amy’s products. =)
I love spicy food, and because it makes me drink more water it is even better!
Romina ~ Try it, but if you dont like really spicy things, I’d get the milder version
Cara ~ I know, what an added benefit!!!!
Impressed with all of your healthy food choices.
l can not wait until l come over to your house for lunch/dinner sometime after you are married.
You have a busy schedule, Good Luck with the next few weeks of school.
I love Larabars! now if only they could make them a touch cheaper…I’m a bit of a tightwad.
Celine ~ I know they are expensive!
