Dreamy Clusters - Milk Chocolate {Skinny Cow}
Also available in Dark Chocolate
Normally I recommend going for a dessert-y protein bar when the sweet cravings hit (lots of chocolate varieties are available now, full of protein and fiber rather than empty calories). However, if you’re really craving something decadent, these Dreamy Clusters are to die for. Totally rich, caramely-chocolatey goodness, in just 120 calories! Pretty impressive, and totally Health Foodie! worthy.
Coconut Water {Naked}
You’d be amazed how many coconut water brands are loaded with added sugar and preservatives. Luckily we have this mouthwatering option! Its only ingredient is coconut water, and not from concentrate.
P.S. What’s so great about coconut water? Not only do I love the unique flavor, I’m hooked to its hydrating qualities, nutrient content (e.g. calcium, potassium, magnesium), and juice-like richness, which comes without all the sugar and calories of juice!

Formerly on Health Foodie!
We’re constantly on the search for healthier and more delicious groceries. Accordingly, we sometimes find better versions of finds we already thought were great. This is true of the products showcased below. These products were formerly published on Health Foodie!, and, while still noteworthy, we recommend you check out the new finds noted at the top of each post.
(Why keep this so-to-speak graveyard of once glorified posts here then, you may ask? So that in case you had an old link, the next time you clicked it (a) you wouldn’t have the (ever pleasant) surprise of discovering it was broken and (b) you could discover the latest and greatest version instead!)
Double Fiber Wheat Bread {Nature’s Own}
This wonder packs 5g of fiber plus 3g of protein… in just 50 calories per slice! That’s significantly fewer calories than other breads with comparable nutritional benefits.
Imported European Dairy {any brand}
Substitute for US dairy products
Did you know that most developed nations EXCEPT
the US have banned the use of rBGH, or genetically-
engineered bovine growth hormone, in milk and milk
products? rBGH is completely banned in the
European Union, Canada, Australia, New Zealand
and Japan. (In fact, American milk is a banned import in the EU!) So next time you debate which cheese or yogurt to buy, reach for the imported one.
Cooking
For the little chef, voila secret tips and tricks to make your cooking effortlessly healthier and, of course, no less scrumptious.
We’re now on the quest for… vegan cheese
February 2013
We’ve just discovered the glories of vegan cheese—melty, delicious goodness with nutrition facts that pay homage to protein rather than fat. Pretty amazing huh? Now we just need to find a truly delicious one!
Just wanted to you know we’re on it, this challengeing quest, and will report back when victorious. If you have your own discoveries already, please feel free to share.
Yours Truly,
The Health Foodies at Health Foodie!
Chocolate Spread {I.M. Healthy}
Just as delicious as Nutella (unfortunately, also just as addictive ;), but with…
1/3 of the sugar (8g vs. 23g per 2 Tbsp serving),
3x the protein (6g vs. 2g), and
3x the fiber (3g vs. 1g)!
Other bonuses: this product is peanut, nut, gluten, and dairy free.

Tip: Craving a chocolate bar? Try a protein bar instead!
They’ve got so many great, chocolate protein bars on
the market now, that it’s easy to grab one of these in
place of a Snickers, Twix, or what-else-may-have-you.
This also means that instead of packing away empty
calories and inviting in a blood sugar spike-and-crash,
you’ll get nutrients, satisfaction, and stable blood sugar.
(Just beware of protein bars that have more calories than
a candy bar, which happens more often than you think.
Here’s our favorite low-calorie super bar: TheSimplyBar)
