At The Creative Kitchen, we love nothing more than a food that is delicious, convenient, versatile and most importantly, good for your entire family! Vapza 7 Grains is already cooked and can be used in a wide variety of dishes, which makes it perfect for families who are looking to get a boost of nutrients from more meals throughout the week. This medley of nutrient-dense grains is thoughtfully grown in Brazil, steam cooked, and vacuum sealed in BPA-free plastic bag. This blend contains whole grain rice, red rice, white quinoa, black quinoa, red quinoa, flaxseed, and chia seeds. Vapza created this product with the busy, health-conscious parent in mind. Flaxseed and chia seeds can lower blood sugar levels and risk of heart disease. They’re both superfoods, and provide fiber, iron, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids (which are linked to even more health benefits such as improving eye health and risk factors for heart disease, fighting inflammation, and more!).

 

From the Mouth of a Kid:

“Burrito bowls are my favorite and we used this instead of rice. It was really yummy!”

 

From the Eyes of a Parent:

“Vapza 7 Grains appeases my rice-loving children with the whole grain and red rice while the other grains like quinoa, flaxseed, and chia provide protein, healthy omega-3s, and fiber. Squeezing those nutrients in can be tough, but products like this make it so much easier. Also, the fact that it’s ready-to-eat makes dinner time less stressful!”

 

Flavorful Features:

Vazpa has a variety of steam cooked options for your next meal!

  • Pinto Beans
  • Black Beans
  • Quinoa Mix
  • Brown Rice

 

The Icing on the Cake:

Rice and quinoa can be easily under cooked or overcooked, but Vapza 7 Grains takes out the guess work! Because this product is already steam cooked, it can be used in pinch without the worry. Substitute Vapza 7 Grains for rice in a quick stir fry or your favorite burrito bowl. And, Vapza 7 Grains is not only organic, but also vegan and kosher.

 

Time to Eat?!

Vazpa 7 Grains is the perfect addition to lunch or dinner!

 

Mix it Up!

Vapza 7 Grains can be served hot or cold. Try tossing this 7 grains mix on a salad instead of croutons. It’s a great way to sneak in extra plant protein and healthy omegas!

Product Review: Enjoy Life Banana Caramel Grain and Seed Bar https://www.thecreativekitchen.com/product-review-enjoy-life-banana-caramel-grain-and-seed-bar/ https://www.thecreativekitchen.com/product-review-enjoy-life-banana-caramel-grain-and-seed-bar/#respond Mon, 23 Apr 2018 13:00:03 +0000 http://www.thecreativekitchen.com/?p=12084

Every parent knows that a portable, tasty, and healthful snack is a lifesaver. The new Enjoy Life Foods Banana Caramel Grain & Seed Bar is just that! This bar is the perfect solution for busy school day mornings, and a great substitution for a healthy dessert. We also love these treats because almost everybody can have them; they’re free of gluten, wheat, dairy, soy, sulfite, lupin, fish, crustacean, peanuts, tree nuts, casein, eggs, sesame, mustard, and shellfish!

 

From the Mouth of a Kid:

Wow, Mom! Are you sure this isn’t candy? It’s so sweet!

From the Eyes of a Parent:

Finding a bar that my kids really love and is healthy has been a challenge. It’s also difficult and expensive to buy different bars to fit every child’s allergy needs. That’s why these bars are so amazing. They really do taste like banana and caramel, so my kids think they’re sneaking a sweet treat. And, I don’t have to worry when giving them to my children and their friends because they’re free from ingredients that many children are allergic to. But the best part is that I love them, too! They’re a great snack in the middle of my work day.

 

Flavorful Features:

Time to Eat?!

Enjoy Life’s Banana Caramel Grain and Seed Bars act as a yummy after-school snack, or part of an easy breakfast for busy mornings!

 

Good to Go?

These single-serve bars are packaged individually, so it’s easy to throw one in a lunchbox or backpack for a snack on the go!
