Save on Easy Plant-Based Meal Solutions at Publix

This post is sponsored by Pinnacle Foods & Boulder Brands. All comments and opinions are my own.

As the mom of a busy family, I love to make sure that I incorporate delicious, yet healthy ingredients into each of our meals. I feel that it can sometimes be a challenge to find items that are rich in nutrients, full of flavor, and easy to get on the table.

Thankfully, I can create healthier, plant-based meal solutions with items found right at my local Publix. With plant-based products from Birds Eye ®, Gardein TM and Earth Balance ®, I can be assured that I am feeding my family high-quality foods without giving up taste or convenience.

Gardein products offer a range of tasty plant-based foods with a meaty texture. While they taste like meat, these products are made from soy, wheat and pea proteins, vegetables and ancient grains like quinoa, amaranth, millet and kamut (to name a few). Gardein products are also cholesterol-free and have no trans or saturated fats. In addition, they are animal and dairy free, so they make a fantastic meal solution for many lifestyles! We tried the Gardein Seven Grain Crispy Tenders and my boys loved them! ! They are bursting with flavor in every bite and I feel good about what I am giving my family to eat!

Birds Eye Steamfresh Southwest Style Protein Blends were the perfect complement to the Gardein Seven Grain Crispy Tenders! Located in the freezer section at Publix, Birds Eye Steamfresh Protein Blends are packed with protein and nutrient rich vegetables, grains and beans. They have 10 grams of plant-based protein per serving and are high in iron. I especially love that these can be cooked right in the bag, and are ready to eat in just minutes! While in the freezer section at Publix, make sure that you also look for Birds Eye Steamfresh Superfood Blends. This line of ready-to-go dishes, are made from nutrient-rich vegetables, grains and fruits. What a fun and quick way to enjoy nature’s healthiest ingredients steamed right in one bag!

Earth Balance Original Buttery Spreads are definitely my favorite when it comes to buttery spreads. It has definitely made a name for itself thanks to its creamy spreadable texture. It is perfect on toast or any of your other favorite snacks. I also love that it is plant-based, vegan, lactose-free, non-dairy, gluten-free and has 0g Trans-fat, no MSG, and is also non-GMO.

Would you like to save on these delicious plant-based products? Head over to www.getthesavings.com/chooseplantbased where you can score fantastic savings! From 2/17/18-3/2/18, you can save $1 off any 1 Gardein Item or $1 off any 1 Earth Balance Buttery Spread. In addition, pick up 2 for $5 Birds Eye Protein Blends, and 2 for $6 Birds Eye Superfood Blends.

No Bake Chocolate Strawberry Lasagna #SundaySupper #FLStrawberry

This post is sponsored by Florida Strawberry in conjunction with a social media campaign through Sunday Supper LLC. All opinions are my own.

It is no secret that I like strawberries. But, I LOVE Florida Strawberries! Living in Florida, I feel especially blessed to be right near the gorgeous Florida strawberry fields. The plump red gems of juicy goodness are the perfect portable bite, and I love that they can be eaten any time in any place. Just wash, eat and enjoy!

You may not know this, but Florida strawberries are actually harvested in the winter. Florida strawberry season is ALL winter long from December through April, so you don’t have to wait until the summer months to enjoy them! If you don’t see Florida strawberries carried at you local grocery store, be sure to ask your produce or store manager. You will be so happy that you did as there is nothing like a juicy and mouth-watering Florida strawberry!

Not only are Florida strawberries packed full of flavor, they are also packed full of nutritional benefits. Strawberries are virtually fat free, have no cholesterol, and are full of Vitamin C! In fact, did you know that just 8 medium strawberries contain more Vitamin C than one orange? You can learn about all of the nutritional benefits of strawberries HERE.

One of the things that I love most about Florida strawberries is just how versatile that they are. They can be preserved, used in desserts and salads and so much more! Today, I am sharing with you just how easy Florida strawberries are to use in no-bake desserts. No bake desserts are often much simpler and easier to make than baked desserts, and many of them are even healthier. I also feel that no bake desserts are such a time-saver! When you pair Florida strawberries into your no bake dessert, you have a win-win! And, you didn’t have to fire up the oven!

What can be better than Florida strawberries combined with chocolate and cream cheese? My recipe for No Bake Chocolate Strawberry Lasagna will definitely have you coming back for more! Layers of fresh Florida strawberries, Oreo Thins and a decadent cream cheese mixture couldn’t be easier to make! This will be the perfect treat for your next party or potluck and your guests will think you spend hours on it!

No Bake Chocolate Strawberry Lasagna

Ingredients:

2 lbs. fresh sliced Florida Strawberries

2 (8oz.) packages of softened cream cheese

1 (8oz.) container of Cool Whip

¾ cup sugar

1 tsp. vanilla extract

2 (10.1 oz.) packages of Oreo Thins Cookies (set aside 4-5 cookies to crumble for the topping)

Directions:

With an electric mixer, combine the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Fold in the container of Cool Whip. Set aside in a small bowl.

In the bottom of a 9×13 dish, place one layer of Oreo Thins. Place a layer of the cream cheese mixture, then a layer of the sliced Florida strawberries. Repeat this process one more time. On the top, you can decorate with the last strawberry layer how you prefer. I did not take them across the entire way so that you can see part of the cream cheese layer. On the top, sprinkle your Oreo Thins crumbles that you set aside.

Chill in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours. Serve and enjoy this berry-licious no bake dessert! You will not be able to eat just one slice!

(All posts may contain affiliate links or sponsored content. Please see my disclosure policy)

Need to spruce up your Spring wardrobe? Today only, February 17, Old Navy  (both online and in-store) is offering 50% off Women’s Dresses! One of my personal favorites are the Old Navy Swing Dresses. With the 50% off sale, they are only $13.50 each! I add a couple new colors/prints to my wardrobe every year as these dresses are seriously the best thing ever. (I just ordered the Red and Navy Floral)  I love that you can dress them up or down. Add a jean jacket, necklace and some booties and you have a cute date night outfit!

Tip: One of my favorite things about ordering with Old Navy online is that you can order in Tall size to add a few inches. I feel that these keep getting shorter every year and I like the dresses right above my knees. The tall always fits perfectly! I do find that these dresses run true to size. I always order a Medium and the fit is great!

Do you ever have those days when something unexpected occurs and you just don’t know what to make for dinner? You want to provide your family with a nutritious and delicious meal, but time is of the utmost importance. Thankfully, Mrs. Paul’s® Seafood and Veggie Meals are now available in the frozen seafood aisle at your local Publix store to help ease your dinnertime dilemma!

Mrs. Paul’s Seafood and Veggie Meals are made with premium seafood, and are rich with Omega-3s that are paired with high protein Birds Eye® vegetables and grains. These meals are not only a good source of protein, but they are also the perfect combination of flavors and textures. In addition, they are super easy and quick to make. In fact, you don’t have to open or plate it, they can be steamed in the microwave in just minutes! Flavors available at Publix include: Lemon Herb Shrimp, California Style Salmon and Garlic Shrimp.

My family and I love seafood, so we were excited to try these “easy-go-to meals” from Mrs. Paul’s. We tried the Lemon Herb Shrimp variety, and it was so flavorful! The shrimp, barley, spinach, sweet potatoes and chickpeas all come together with a pleasing lemony flavor that is seasoned to perfection. Every bite was full-flavored yet delightful! I also loved how vibrant the colors of the dish were when it was plated! Mrs. Paul’s Seafood and Veggie Meals are definitely my new favorite quick and easy meal to pick up for those hectic days that I am pre-occupied. It’s the perfect simple meal for two!

I am looking forward to trying the other varieties of these meals! Thankfully you can save on Mrs. Paul’s Seafood and Veggie Meals right at your local Publix.
