AlbuqCookie Biscotti & Shortbread Cookies

AlbuqCookies are  biscotti & short bread cookies baked with love all the way from Albuquerque, New Mexico. Cute name and nice packaging with a very interesting story of how the owner of the company moved from New York to New Mexico. Shortly afterward, he started turning his baking hobby into an actual business and the brand AlbuqCookie was born. Check out this website for more high quality picture of the baking process and “meet” the creator of this brand – Stephen Hoffman. At first I was hesitant in trying these because I tend to shy away from baked goods that do not have nutritional information on the package. Glad I took the plunge because these are too good to miss out on.

Lavender Lemon Biscotti: First bite I could taste the subtle lemon flavor. Soft-baked biscotti rather than crispy crunchy kind. The lavender flavor is subtle, but I could barely taste the lemon flavor. 3 bite biscotti that tasted more like a cookie. I think the lavender might be more of a smell than a taste. I am not really use to a flowery tasting/smelling biscotti. Unique, but not my taste. Enriched (wheat) flour, sugar, butter (milk), eggs, organic lavender, baking powder, vanilla extract, lemon juice and salt.

Almond Toffee: Blew me away. Love the caramelized toffee. Crispy, crunchy and perfect for dipping biscotti. A perfect 3 bite biscotti to go with any cup of joe. Hard on the outside, crumbly on the inside, covered in bittersweet chocolate with almond flavor lingering on your tongue. Simple ingredients: enriched (wheat) flour, sugar, almonds, chocolate toffee chips, butter (milk), eggs, baking powder, vanilla extract, salt.

Pistachio Chocolate Chip Cranberry: The base of the biscotti is spot on again. Good size pistachio nuts distributed within although I could not really taste the pistachio flavor. The chocolate chip flavor was the strongest followed by the minimal dried cranberry bits. This combination was definitely interesting with a different taste in each bite. These are another one of my favorite. Simple ingredients: enriched (wheat) flour, sugar, butter (milk), chocolate chips, dried cranberries, pistachio nuts, eggs, baking powder, vanilla extract, salt.

Chocolate Pinon Nut: Harder and more biscotti like than the other 3 varieties. The pinon nuts don’t taste like much to me and there were just a couple embedded in the biscotti. Texture-wise, this one is the hardest of the 4 flavors so I like to dip this one in coffee. Good chocolate flavor, but not uber sweet and drizzled in chocolate. Simple ingredients: enriched (wheat) flour, sugar, chocolate chips, pinon nuts, butter (milk), cocoa, eggs, baking powder, vanilla extract, salt.

Green Chile Pecan Sandia Cookies: Super buttery and melts in your mouth good. Each cookie is not that big. Perfect tea side component. Love the pecan bits in there and the green spice kick. Literally melts in your mouth. These are delicious and are to die for. My favorite of the cookies. Simple ingredients: enriched (wheat) flour, butter (milk), sugar, pecans, eggs, green chili powder, vanilla extract, salt.

Leah Rosie’s Chocolate Pepper Chile Cookies: Hard. Very chocolatey and sweet. Chile spice kicks in at the end.  These taste very hard considering they should be shortbread cookies. Very unique since you get the chili flavor as an end note in these, but I could pass on this one. Simple ingredients: enriched (wheat) flour, sugar, butter (milk), cocoa, eggs, cinnamon, red chili powder, red/black pepper, ginger powder, vanilla extract, salt.

If you ever visit Albuquerque, New Mexico, be sure to bring back some as gifts. Truly a special gem from Albuquerque. Highly suggest the Almond Toffee Biscotti, Pistachio Chocolate Chip Cranberry Biscotti and the Green Chile Pecan Sandia Cookies. Want some AlbuqCookies of your own?

POMx Iced Coffee

The wonderful people over at POM Wonderful just launched their new healthy buzz POMx Ice Coffee Lines and sent a couple of bottle for me to try. Their line includes flavors such as: Cafe Au Lait, Chocolate and Vanilla.

POMx Cafe Au Lait: Cute bottle as always with Pom Wonderful products. Milky tasting coffee. Similar to an iced latte you would get from Starbucks only it is pre-sweeten. The shot of antioxidants in not detectable, but good to know it is there. As with a lot of sweeten products, it is generally aimed to capture the taste of the general public, but can either be too sweet for some or not sweet enough for others. Judging by the palette of a person that does not add sugar to her coffee, of course I think it is sweet, but not as sweet tasting as other ready to drink coffees out there. Taste like something you can get at Starbucks. One bottle (10.5 oz) is 170 calories, 4 WW, 3 grams of fat (2 grams saturated), 15 milligrams of cholesterol, 130 milligrams of sodium, 29 grams of carbohydrates, no fiber, 20 grams of sugar, and 3 grams of protein. Good choice for a supermarket coffee. Ingredients include: reduced-fat milk, brewed Rainforest Alliance Certified coffee (water, coffee), POMx (POM Wonderful Antioxidant Extract — patent pending), organic cane sugar, natural caffeine.

POMx Chocolate: I was expecting some sort of mocha tasting drink, but I was surprise that it felt like I was just drinking chocolate milk — something I have not done in a long time. Then, upon closer taste testing, I found that there is a light residual coffee taste that lingers in your mouth after you sip it. Very chocolaty and delicious, but the coffee taste is masked by the strong chocolate flavor. One bottle (10.5 oz) is 190 calories, 4 WW, no fat, zero cholesterol, 160 milligram of sodium, 49 grams of carbohydrates, 30 grams of sugar, 10 grams of sugar alcohol, and 10 grams of protein. Ingredients include: non-fat milk, organic cane sugar, PomX (POM Wonderful Antioxidant Extract — patent pending), brewed Rainforest Alliance Certified coffee (water, coffee), erythritol (natural sweetener), cocoa, natural flavors, natural caffeine, carrageenan.

Overall, I think POMx iced coffee taste pretty good. The Cafe Au Lait has good strong coffee taste and the chocolate one tasted very indulgent and chocolatey with a coffee aftertaste, but the sugar in these are too much for me to handle, especially the Chocolate and Vanilla ones which has 30 grams of sugar plus 10 grams of sugar alcohol in the bottle. Scaling down the 10.5 ounce bottle back down to a normal 8 ounce serving, you are looking at about 133 to 145 calories per 8 ounce drink so it is similar to a can of regular soda. Although made by the POM Wonderful company, these coffee do not have any fruity pomegranate taste in them, just the extra boost of POMx antioxidants.

Almondina

I always thought Almondina are thin versions of biscotti, but upon closer examination of the package and actaully trying them out, these are no biscotti. Rather, they are delicious thin cookies, in the shape of a mini biscotti, only thinner. So thin, in fact, you can see all the goodness baked into these cookies. Almondina does not skimp on the almonds and raisins that makes these so delicious. These cookies are hard and does not soak up liquid like a biscotti would. I just got a wet biscuit when I tried to dip mine in coffee. The mix of the chewy raisins, crunchy biscuit and almonds  makes these unstoppable to eat. I love the crunchy and chewy textures combine with the nutty, subtle sweet, and vanilla flavors. The package is rather small and contains 4 serving of 4 biscuits per serving. Comes out to be 133 calories per serving or 33 calories per cookie. Does not taste overly sweet but it does have 10 grams of sugar per serving. The package comes with 3 sections with 5 biscuits in each slot. So easy to finish off 1 slot at a time. These are very addictive. Besides the original, which is their all time best seller, Almondina offers flavors in: Choconut, Almonduo (almonds and pistachios), Sesame, Gingerspice, Anniversary, Brantreats (30% bran w/ cinnamon), Cinnaroma, Chocolate Dipped and a new flavor for Fall — Pumpkin Spice. Besides online and at Trader Joe’s, which only carries the Original, I have never seen Almondina at any of the stores I shop at. Time to keep my eyes peeled for the Almonduo and Pumpkin Spice flavors. I heard from a little bird (a.k.a Twitter), that Almondina has new seasonal flavors coming out REAL soon — like January to March 2010 soon. Surprise us, okay? Follow them on twitter  @Almondina. One serving of 4 biscuits is 133 calories, 3 WW, 3.9 grams of fat (0.30 gram  saturated), no cholesterol, 8.9 milligrams of sodium, 88 milligram of potassium, 1 gram of fiber, 21.5 grams of carbohydrates, 10 grams of sugar and 3 grams of protein.

Simple ingredients list:
Almonds, Flour (wheat flour and malt barley flour), Sugar, Egg Whites, Raisins, Natural Flavors. Kosher Pareve.

Can you see that the FIRST ingredient is almonds. Love that there are almonds in here more than anything else. Almond lovers rejoice.

Trader Joe’s Wheat Pizza Dough

What’s a bloggette to do when the pizza craving strikes? Make a homemade pizza of course. With the convenience of Trader Joe’s Wheat Pizza Dough, making healthy pizzas and calzones is as easy as ordering take-out pizza. Taking a little inspiration from Kate over at Cooking with Kate, the pizza queen, I whipped up my first batch of homemade pizza. First thing I did was separate the dough into 4 smaller chunks and wrap the portion I will not be using in saran wrap and stow it away in the freezer. They freeze really well. Following the directions of letting it stand for 20 minutes, the dough got a little bigger. I then preceded to add my ingredients. My sauce was the Trader Joe’s Fat Free Pizza sauce, with mozzarella cheese, spinach, mushrooms, shredded carrots, zucchini and a generous shake of oregano. I like to spread my pizza dough really really thin to get more surface area. If you fold the pizza dough over each other to encase the toppings, then you have yourself a nice little calzone. I thought I did a pretty good job, but I realize that after it cooks, the dough puffs up and raises a little so I could have thinned out the dough even more. All-in-all, my pizza creation was delicious and so simple with pre-made pizza dough. The pizza came out thicker than I had hoped, but the pizza had really good texture. Very chewy and with my topping and seasoning, it was not bland at all. A little high in the sodium department, but I don’t make pizza often so these are nice to hand on hand in the freezer.

Simple ingredients: unbleached wheat flour, whole wheat flour, filtered water, canola olive oil blend, sea and fresh yeast. One serving of 2 ounce (1/8 of package) is 120 calories, 2 WW, 1.5 grams of fat, no cholesterol, 440 milligram of sodium, 24 grams of carbohydrates, 2 grams of fiber, no sugar, and 3 grams of protein.

Check out these simple instructions straight from the bag:
Gently remove dough from bag and place on lightly floured work surface. Let dough rest for 20 minutes, then, for best results, stretch with hand or roll out with rolling pin to 12-inch diameter. Top with your favorite toppings and bake in a preheated 450 degrees oven or BBQ grill for 8-10 minutes, or until cheese begins to boil and the bottom of crust is golden brown.Use a hot pizza stone or lightly oiled pan for optimum results. Mangia!

Justin’s Nut Butter

What do you think of when you want single portioned nut butters? I think of Justin’s  Nut butters that usually grace the bottom shelves of the Whole Foods nut butter/jam wall. The peanut butter are $0.69 a packet and the almond butter are $0.99 a packet. It is very easy to over eat with nut butters so I really like these pre-portioned packets. I eat more peanut butter and almond butter now because I can take them with me every where I go since these require no refrigeration. Simply just knead the packet before opening and squeeze the goodness out. Justin’s Nut butters offers 3 types of peanut butter and 3 types of almond butter for your choosing: Classic Peanut Butter, Honey Peanut Butter, Cinnamon Peanut butter, Classic Almond Butter, Honey Almond Butter, and Maple Almond Butter. Justin’s just launched their CHOCOLATE line: Chocolate Peanut butter, chocolate almond butter and chocolate hazel nut butter. So exciting. I wonder if the chocolate hazelnut butter will taste like Nutella?

Classic Peanut Butter: Smooth and easy to spread. No salt added so it is a on the bland side.

Honey Peanut Butter: The peanut butter is technically smooth, but at times, it felt a little nitty gritty. Must be from the honey powder and sea salt added to it. Since the salt and honey powder are added in crystal form, some bites of peanut butter is salt and some bites are had strong honey flavor. You really don’t know what sensation your taste buds will get until you taste it. I like the surprise. The combination of sea salt and honey powder makes this pb very savory, but not overly sweet. BTW, I was eating this plain with a spoon.

Cinnamon Peanut Butter: Your classic peanut butter with a hint of cinnamon. Very good on apples.

Classic Almond Butter: Delicious, but not as smooth as barney butter. Has a little gritty texture. Again, no salt so a little bland.

Honey Almond Butter: Delicious like the peanut butter version. Good almond butter taste. Had this on top of a homemade bran muffin. I don’t add any sugar to my muffins to this Honey AB complemented my muffin perfectly.

Maple Almond Butter: Tasted wonderful. The maple flavor is slight, but there. Almond butter is good, but almond butter with flavor is even better.

Honestly, I only use half of a packet eat time I use these Justin Nut butter squeeze packets. Luckily, Justin’s do carry smaller 100 calories versions. I pack my lunches with these easily portable packets. No mess, easy to squeeze, but if you want every single drop of it out of the squeeze pack, then it can get messy.

Nutritional Facts:
Almond Butters: One packet is 190-200 calories, 5 WW, 16-18 grams of fat (1.5 – 2 grams saturated), no cholesterol, zero to 65 milligram of sodium, 3 grams of fiber, 1-4 grams of sugar, and 6-7 grams of protein.

EatSmart Precision Pro Digital Kitchen Scale

EatSmart Precision Pro Digital Kitchen Scale. The scale itself only weights 270 grams (about 0.60 pounds). Super light weight and easy to move around. Runs of 2 AAA batteries and very user friendly. Two buttons, but has your basic on/off function, tare and unit changes among grams, kilograms, ounces and pounds. Super simple to use. Personally, I think a scale is an essential kitchen tool, not only for weight-loss/weight- maintenance, but for cooking well in general. Instead of measuring recipes out with measuring cups and having to wash so many things, I like to weight my ingredients all in one bowl if I can. I find that more accurate and saves me a lot of prepping time. The scale has the capacity of 11 pounds which is plenty for cooking and baking needs. So small you can even travel with it, but I am not anal with my food like that. My kitchen is generally used for baking, and cooking with high calorie ingredients such as oils, nuts butters, avocados, pasta, and grains. I love the tare button. After each ingredients, just press the tare button with your bowl still on the scale and you can go ahead and measure in the second ingredient. Love this scale. Big numbers and easy to read. No lag time for readings to come up. Very study and well built and durable for everyday use. The only problem I can see with this scale is that the weight surface is pretty small so if your have a large bowl, it might cover the readings. If you really need to use a big bowl, pick a transparent one. Overall, EatSmart precision Pro is a great little scale.

Whole Foods Black Chia Seeds

I first learned about Chia seeds over at Heather Eats Almond Butter which linked me to Mizfit’s post. I’ve been seeing Chia Seeds popping up in many bloggers posts recently. I know you can get them at chiaseedsdirect with free shipping (US residents only), but I did not want to commit to a 4.5 lbs bag before even try it out so naturally I ventured to Whole Foods to pick some up. I spotted this 8 oz container around the bulk bin section. It was decently priced at $5.99 for 8 oz. Whole Foods also carries the Navitas Natural Chia seeds for $8.99 (8 oz) and the Chia powder for $11.99 (8 oz) so you have more option to choose from. Once in contact with moisture, Chia seeds form this gummy gel around itself, which is good because it means it will expand in your stomach to make you fuller for longer. And if you like thicker oatmeal, do what Heather does and pour 1-2 tbsp into your morning oats to create a omega-3 packed, thick and creamy oat bran. I personally do not think it had much of a flavor itself so it can be added to basically anything. Be sure to check your teeth before you head out after you eat these because they can stick in-between your teeth without you noticing. Heather and Mizfit does a better job at describing all the wonderful benefits of Chia seeds so please do check out their posts. Here is my attempt to list a few:

*Easily digestible and does not need grinding like flaxseeds
*High in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acid
*High in protein and fiber
*Rich in vitamins and minerals such as iron, calcium, potassium, magnesium etc.
*Gluten-Free

Nutland Foods

Hope you guys were able to sign up for a free sample on Nutland Foods‘ website before they ran out. After reviewing the 3 bite sample they sent over (signed up online), the kind people over at Nutland Foods sent over their other varieties for me to try out too.

Berries and Cherries Crunch: Love the combination of nuts. The berries stuck to my teeth and molars which made them a little annoying to eat. The sweetness in here makes me like to end my meals with it. A nice nutty and sweet end. Visually, I see mostly almonds, then cashews, pistachios and then the dried fruits (cherries, cranberries, and blueberries). The cherries add a bit of a tart taste to the whole combination. Previous review here.

Cashews: Love the cashew goodness. The sugar flavor was pretty prominent, but not as much as the varieties with mix nut in it. The buttery-ness of the cashews shone through easily. My favorite variety of the bunch.

Almond: Lots of almonds– duh. About 5-6 almonds per bite. Yum. Fresh tasting like all the other varieties.

Pistachio Crunch: Pure pistachio goodness. I counted about 10 pistachios molded together per little square crunch. A tad sweet, but nevertheless, really good. The nuts are fresh  and each bite is pure pistachio goodness.

Pecans: Pecans are naturally higher in fat content than other nuts so I was not surprised to see that 6 pieces came out to be 170 calories. Each bite has about 4 dry roasted pecans molded together. The pecans tasted really fresh with sweetness added to it. I swear I could taste a faint hint of cinnamon in there too, but cinnamon was not on the ingredients list. Maybe it is hidden under “spices”. Not as sweet as candied pecans, but I think these will serve well on top of salads to add your healthy fats.

Trail Mix: If I did not look at the bag, I thought I was eating the Berries and Cherries Crunch variety. Those two are very similar, but the Trail Mix lacks a little tartness the cherries provide. This and the Berries and Cherries variety are noticeable sweeter than the other single nut varieties. Also, maybe because those varieties are “stickier”, the pieces tend to stick to each other, but you can easily break them apart. The sugar gloss that molds the nuts and berries together are clearly visible. Sweet, but not sickeningly so. Did not even noticed the pecan in here until I looked at the ingredients list.

Overall, Nutland Foods are very tasty snacks that are easy to take along with you in their resealable packaging. I wouldn’t be afraid of the fat content since we all know nuts are good for all their MUFA which I find helps satisfy the body a lot longer than a fat-free/low fat diet. What I would be mindful about is the sugar content. If you enjoy snacks like Mareblu Naturals and Mrs. May Trio nut snacks, you will find these enjoyably. Comparing the three brands, I find that the individual nuts as well as the “nugget” size in Nutland Foods are bigger. Maybe it is because they do not mold the nuts together as tightly as the other brands.
