Have you ever noticed the huge connection between food and family?
- We have family recipes passed down from generations
- Thousands of conversations cherished around the family dinner table
- Every milestone from births to weddings and even funerals warrant a casserole or big dinner shared with family
Food and family just belong together!!! In fact, one of the things I miss most about living in the Philippines, was how blatantly these two were intertwined. If you ever have a bad day in the Philippines the solution is always eating rice and togetherness. There is just a special bond that happens over a bowl of rice, a plate of food or even a good drink, when shared with a beloved friend or a family member.
This is why I was so excited to discover this months BabbleBoxx was focused on food and family! My friends at BabblyBoxx.com sent me a huge box filled with tasty drinks, and food to share with my family. I’m excited to tell you all about them today!
Ready to dive in to this epic box of food for your family? Here’s what’s in it!
The Brew Dr. Kombucha was first out of the box, and they sent two of their popular flavors for us to try. The Clear Mind flavor wins in my book with subtle herb-y flavoring of rosemary and sage this botanical tasting brew is known for it’s ability to assist in mental clarity and focus (winning!!!). The second flavor they sent us was the Herbal Uplift, which is great for promoting overall health.
All of Brew Dr. Kombucha is live and active, 100% RAW, unpasteurized and probiotic! They use a non-heat distillation process to gently remove the alcohol but keep the deliciousness of the fermented tea. This is a great low sugar, low calorie drink to have on hand for your day!
They also sent us this adorable hat that my daughter loved! Food and drink bringing family together for a smile, once again!
JOLLY TIME Simply Popped Pop Corn
This was a huge win coming out of the box for this mom! My kids love microwave popcorn, but it’s one of those treats that I feel I always need to ration, since your average microwave popcorn has all kinds of yucky stuff in it. Not so with JOLLY TIME Simply Popped Pop Corn. This snack is made with just four ingredients, sea salt, popcorn, butter and oil. It has zero grams of trans fats and just 35 calories in each cup. I feel a LOT better about giving my kids this one, and they loved it!!!
With our Spring Break coming to a close, we spent a fair amount of time curled up on the couch together, watching movies and enjoying this healthy eating snack with one another.
nutpods Dairy Free Creamer
Fun fact: my husband makes me coffee at least twice a day. We have a cup in the morning to wake up, and I’ve found that a cup in the evening typically helps me sleep better, so he makes me an evening cup as well. I was so happy to try this new (to me) sugar-free coffee creamers! Three flavors came in the box, Original, Hazelnut and my favorite, French Vanilla.
This is the perfect addition to my daily coffee. These dairy-free, plant-based creamers are made from coconuts and almonds and have no artificial ingredients. Trade in your usual creamer with this plant based creamer!
You can Use the code BABBLE20 to get 20% off of your purchase on nutpods.com from now until April 12, 2018. Limited to one use per customer, and the code is case sensitive. I love that we can order the creamer online and have it shipped straight to the house. So easy!!!
Sprout® Organic Crinklez
Sprout® Organic Crinklez is a new (to me) snack for toddlers. It’s perfectly textured so they can grip the snack themselves and as a veggie and bean based snack, this is one you can feel comfortable feeding your toddler. This snack has protein from chickpeas and is popped with colorful foods like spinach, beets and carrots. This plant powered toddler snack is available in Cheesy Spinach and Pumpkin Carrot flavors. I went ahead and tried them, and they are so good! I would definitely eat these WITH my toddler, instead of letting them have the whole bag.
JUNKLESS Chewy Granola Bars
These came out of our box last, but was definitely a family favorite! These Non-GMO granola bars were a huge hit! These bars are moist and chewy which meant even our littlest family members were able to enjoy them (sometimes harder bars hurt my daughter’s teeth). Each bar is sweetened naturally and with no corn syrups of any kind. With flavors like tasty Cinnamon Roll and Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip, it’s easy to see why our family is in love with this healthy snack!

That’s all of the tasty treats in our box, but these aren’t just snacks and drinks, they each represent precious time spent with family from chewy granola bars in the morning all the way to the cup of coffee we enjoy together in the evenings!
