HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!
I know I’ve mentioned my love for Chobani in the past. The plain is my favorite since it’s so versatile (and makes it acceptable to have brownie batter for breakfast), but these new flavors are absolutely phenomenal!

Apple Cinnamon (seems to be the favorite around the blog world), 2% Passion Fruit (with seeds and all) and Blood Orange. I just can’t get enough. They seem to be hard to find at the grocery stores too, so I was pumped when Chobani offered to send me a case – and share a case with one of my readers!
If you win, you could make apple pie for breakfast (like I did on Saturday). Similar to the Cherry Pie idea, but this one is more dough-like than crispy.
1/4 cup oatbran, 2 tsp cinnamon, 4 drops vanilla stevia, 2 Tbsp almond milk…. mushed together:
Quickly microwaved (less than a minute)…

A quick, deliciously cinnamon filled crust for your protein packed Apple Cinnamon Chobani.

I am also in love with Cookie Underground!
I was so excited to win this giveaway on Laura’s blog last week, and tore open the box after my late shift last night:
The packaging, stationary, and print materials were all adorable – but not as cute as the cookies!
Cookies, with vegetables. Yep. Adorable, organic, and perfectly sweet without being big enough to mess up your diet.
I wish Cookie Underground would ship some of these babies to Pittsburgh on a regular basis! Even my veggie phobic family thought they were fantastic. The Almond Beet were my favorite – like a light macaroon flavor. I could have eaten the whole box, but I figured I should share them in the spirit of Valentine’s Day.
Chobani is spreading the love too! Enter to win 4 each of the new flavors described above!

Don’t judge… I just discovered Justin’s hazelnut chocolate spread in oatmeal. Heavenly.
Just tried/loved kale, but that isn’t really NEW now, is it?
Then, I’d have to say these new “relaxed hold” suave hairsprays I’ve been getting. They don’t make me feel like I’m wearing a helmet, but hold the wave I was hoping to rock all day. true love!

I tweeted and liked on FB!! I can’t think of any “new” product that I love…however I have been enjoying the new Chobani flavors and look forward to any additional upcoming flavors they may create!!
Cass recently posted..Where do you go?
My favorite “new” product is egg whites. Obviously they are not new but I never liked eggs, but they are a no brainer when it comes to protein. I’ve been eating them for breakfast. Adding them to smoothies, oatmeal, protein bars… they are so versatile!
Oooo love this giveaway! Thanks Claire!
My fav new product are Rice Works chips! Gluten and Wheat free and so yummy. Costco!
The cherry m&m are my new fave

Shanna, like Banana recently posted..Love

i’ve been loving the larabar blueberry muffin flavor lately
My favorite new product is the Chobani blood orange….even though I have yet to try it I KNOW I will be in love.
Favorite new product… oh jeez! So many to choose from…
So if you are interested… I can vouch it is AMAZING… stock up when you order!!
but recently I have had an obsession with Peanut Flour…
the downside.. the only place to find it is online
I’m loving the new Luna Peanut honey Pretzel bar. Soooo delicious
A new product that I am loving is definitely plain yogurt in general! It may only be new to me but I never realized that all of that sugar from my beloved vanilla yogurt wasn’t necessary… But Apple Cinnamon & Passion Fruit GREEK yogurt?!?! That sounds amazing.
Yey for self-hosting!
A new product I’m loving? Hmmm… Organic ketchup

Brittany @ Itty Bits of Balance recently posted..A Tisket, a Tasket, a V-Day Basket
I love the new apple cinnamon chobani!!
That “crust” idea sounds good, I’m going to have to try it! A new to me product I’m loving is Trader Joe’s Spicy Peanut Vinaigrette. I rarely buy pre-made dressings at the store because of the ingredients and high calories so this was an impulse buy last week but I love it!
My newest favorite product has to be Chobani in general… I LOVE their plain yogurt! But Apple Cinnamon sounds sooo delicious!
I love your apple/cherry pie idea – so smart!
I tweeted again!
My favorite new-to-me product is PB2!!
Maggie @ Running on Fro-Yo recently posted..A LOVELY WIAW!
I’m loving the luna peanut honey pretzel bar.. DELICIOUS!
I liked you on facebook.
I subscribed to your page
My new to me product that I love is Wholly Guacamole. Its great on everything!
Tweeted too!
New product I love, and not just saying this to suck up – the blood orange Cho! I have such a low tolerance for sweet yogurt flavors and this one isn’t too sugar-tasting for me! Though I do always choose plain over a flavor.
