Good Morning!!

What a great week! This is was the official last week of school! Woo hoo!! No more homework, super early mornings and strict early bedtimes. I mean we still have structure but things are just more relaxed during the summer! Lots of pool time, beach trips and fun in the sun! I couldn't be more excited! 

I wanted to share with you guys a few things that I am LOVING lately....here goes....

On to my {five favorites} 

1.  GoMacro Macrobar Mini:

Obsessed does not even begin to cover how much I love these bars. I don't usually recommend any kind of energy/granola bar because they are usually loaded with junk and WAY too much sugar. Glorified candy bars some may say. These bars are 100% vegan, USDA certified organic, certified non-GMO, Gluten-Free, and made from mostly raw ingredients. I am a HUGE ingredient freak and when I heard about this company...I felt like they totally get it. They do so much research into every single ingredient that goes in these bars that I totally trust what I am eating. I am on the go a lot (like everyone I am sure) so I am always in the need of something to throw in my purse. Having a snack that is packed with healthy fat and protein to throw in my purse is perfect!! I have been eating the minibars which are the perfect size for a quick bite. My kids love these too! All of the flavors are delicious. I love them all. I could go on and on but I will stop with this.....if you are looking for a super easy/nutritious snack for on the go or when you are short on time....these are perfect and guilt free!

I was sent a box of the GoMacro Macrobar Minis to try. All opinions are 100% mine. I absolutely love them and I am sure you will as well! :)

2.  Toasted Coconut Chips:

Where have these been all of my life! I have always loved coconut but lately...I just can't seem to get enough. I have been making my own trail mix and adding these in. I love the walnut/coconut chip/dark chocolate chip combo. Trust me....try it! These are just a really nice crunchy treat that happens to be  high in minerals and full of fiber!

3.  Pineapple Slicer

I love fresh pineapple but hate cutting them! I saw this on Amazon for less than $4 with free shipping  and thought...why not?? I love this thing! It cores the pineapple and cuts it in rings! My kids think it is super cool to eat their pineapple circles and it is just way too easy! We probably go through at least 2 pineapples a week! :)

4. Grilled Peaches

We have been grilling A LOT now that the weather is nicer. My husband loves to grill and I love that he loves it! We grill a ton of veggies/chicken and shrimp but lately we have been on a grilled fruit kick! Pineapple rings are delicious on the grill but the best thing I have had lately is grilled peaches! OMG! Stay tuned next week and I will tell you exactly how I make mine!

5.  Our First Garden

I am super proud of this one! My husband has taken an interest in organic gardening and he is really doing such a great job! We have spring mix lettuce, baby spinach, okra, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, roma and regular tomatoes, cilantro, peppers, jalapenos and onions. So far we have more lettuce than we could possibly eat! We are going to be eating A LOT of salads this summer! I love it! My kids loved planting the seeds, watching the plants grow and eating all of the yummy vegetables!

I hope you all have a fabulous weekend!! What are your five favorites from this week??
