Huel Chili Cold Weather Fuel

 We need nutritious and tasty food  to get through this season. Luckily Huel has come along with its' Hot and Savory line. These are nutrition packed instant meals that can be cooked with just hot water or microwaved.I thought I'd give the chili a try.

Huel is known for its' bars, ready to drink and powders. These are chock full of proteins, perfect for those on a diet or just want to eat better. The new line is perfect for providing the body with the important ingredients. There are three flavors, the Mexican chili, rife with quinoa, rice , peppers and beans, the tomatoes and herbs which mixes in lentils and onions and green curry, a blend of peppers, sweet corn and scallions.

The bags contain a whopping one pound of mix.

and each bag contains seven servings. a scoop is given for scooping out the mix and a cup to mix.You can see the different mix of grains, beans and spices.

since I was making it for dinner, I doubled the amount to four to five scoops and about a cup of water.

It was then cooking it for six minutes. You can use less to make a hot, satisfying lunch with it. 

It's a very thick mix , thicker than home made  thanks tot he rice and quinoa. You can thin the chili with a tablespoon or two of tap water.

It was fiery and super spicy. I feel I could its' spiciness can be cut with more beans but it was flavorful. I like how it could also be served with cornbread or polenta. A small serving is only four hundred calories, good for those on before holiday diets.

Huel Hot and Savory is the perfect cold weather meal for lunch or dinner. Try any of the three flavors for the maximum amount of nutrition. It's tasty and good for you during these hard times.

A Welcome Blast Of Cold.Reveri Frozen Desserts

November s not normally a time for frozen treats yet there is one that is a perfect end to holiday dinners - Reveri  a plant based frozen dessert. This healthy ice cream is not only good but good for you. It's plant based with a flavorful blend of fruits and even veggies!

Reveri started with the idea of a good for you dessert. The creators wanted a frozen treat that could "love" the eater as the eater loves ice cream.It had to be plant based, healthy and low in calories. They succeeded ,combining such diverse ingredients as avocados, beets, cocoa, blueberries , dates, almonds, cashews and strawberries The result is an amazing treat you can eat for breakfast , lunch or even dinner as well as for dessert and snacks. I had to try these, as I 'm slowly cutting down on dairy.

The four flavors are  vanilla almond blossom,purple mint chip, chocolate forest and strawberry patch. What I love the most about all the flavors is the mouth feel. It's like a rich creamy mousse. It's so light and airy that it feels whipped. The purple mint chip is my favorite .I love the added crunch of the cocoa nibs.I paired it with coconut whipped cream for a truly decadent dessert.

The strawberry is perfect too, reminding me of a fresh made summery mousse. I also like the vanilla almond blossom, which has  almond slivers in it. Another favorite is the chocolate forest with the crunch of those yummy cocoa nibs. What is a huge surprise is that these decadent spoonfuls have only fifteen to twenty fat calories in a serving. This is the perfect ice cream for dieters who need the comfort of a cold bowlful. and parents watching their kids' fat intake.

Hopefully Reveri will come out with more flavors, possibly coconut and peanut butter, or maybe a wild raspberry or blackberry. They should come out with popsicles along with a line of healthy cones and bowls.

Reveri is the healthy treat that's even perfect on a cold night. Try a scoop and enjoy this lush  mousse like dessert.It's better than ice cream in so many ways.
