It happened again! My Degustabox arrived and I am so excited about all of this month’s goodies! Everything looks amazing!
Whenever my Degustabox arrives, I always call for my daughters to help me ‘unbox’ all of the goodies. We have so much fun looking at all of the contents together and deciding who gets what. We have a fun mother-daughter bonding time as we taste test some of the goodies. We also discuss what we might make for dinner, using some of the Dugustabox ingredients. It is a blast!
Here are the products that were included in the September 2016 Degustabox:
MICHEL ET AUGUSTIN Shortbread Cookies
These delicious little butter cookies are the perfect combination of sweet and salty, buttery goodness. My entire family loves these!
The English Provender Co. believes in keeping it simple – their products have clean, all-natural, premium ingredients packaged in an attractive upscale glass jar. The English Provender Co. has been making small batch, traditional English recipes since 1979. Non-GMO, Vegetarian, Gluten Free.
Luxury Lemon Curd: A decadent, creamy jam-spread with a bright sweet flavor. A Perfect Breakfast spread on waffles, warm toast, muffins. Ideal Pie filling. Delicious on ice-cream. (This lemon curd is my favorite! It is heavenly! I would use this as the filling of the lemon bars I make.)
Caramelized Red Onion: A delicious savory, rich, jam-style condiment. Delicious in Burgers, on spuds, hot dogs & with a deli-cheese plate. Degusta Box favorite – Caramelized Red Onion on Stilton & Bruchetta. (I haven’t tried this one yet.)
Sweet Tomato & Chili : A sweet, rich, ketchup with a kick. Perfect in grilled sandwiches, burgers, with chicken, fish or cheese. A yummy, jam-style condiment. (I haven’t tried this one yet, ether, but I will definitely try it out on my burger the next time we have a bbq.
This gluten-free, satisfying snack tastes great and gives you all the healthy benefits you expect from the good foods you put in your body.
Each of Toosum’s delicious 100-calorie snack bars are made with nutrient-dense (and certified gluten-free!) rolled oats, and other delicious ingredients straight from nature, all with benefits that go way beyond their good taste.
I love Toosum bars. They are the perfect low-calorie, healthful snack for me, and for school lunches! Thankfully, my son, Braxton likes them, too! (This is wonderful, because he does not like most anything that has any type of nutritional value.)
Zollipops and Zolli Drops, The Clean Teeth Pops and Drops are a sweet cause-based product that helps reduce tooth decay. Zollipops naturally raise the pH in your mouth after a meal or sugary snack, leaving your teeth feeling smooth and clean as they help teeth naturally remineralize faster and help to prevent development of future cavities.
Zollipops are deliciously fruity. I like the way my mouth feels so clean when I am sucking on one. I would be kind of worried giving these to my kids, however because they are so hard that they could be a choking hazard.
Ripened chunky tomatoes slowly stewed with zucchini, carrots, garlic and onion finished with a blend of herbs de provence. This family favorite is a comforting sauce that can be used mildly or spiced up with chili pepper flakes.
I found a recipe on Hak’s website that showed me how to make a delicious looking Pan Roasted Chicken Parmesan using this sauce. It loks so good, and looks easy. I haven’t had the chance to try it out yet, but my mouth is watering just thinking about it!
I must say that unless you have a taste for this type of bitter drink, you might want to stay away from it. I thought it tasted nasty. I felt like it was some kind of a joke. Who would think that this stuff is refreshing? I thought it tasted like stomach acid. On a positive note, the bottle is pretty!
BustaNUT! takes your old school peanut and injects it with knock-your-socks-off flavor. These ain’t your Daddy’s peanuts. No cartoon figures here. Top quality peanuts with a selection of unique flavors to satisfy anyone’s cravings.
My samples were Maple Bacon and Bourbon. I liked the Maple Bacon, but not the Bourbon flavor. And isn’t BustaNUT a dirty word? So I may just refrain from taking them to church and sharing them with the Sunday School class that I teach.
Post Honey Bunches of Oats
Honey Bunches of Oats is my family’s favorite cereal! I was happy to see that it came in this month’s Degustabox. I love it!
Nando’s Peri Peri Medium Sauce
When I first opened this sauce and tasted it, I thought it kind of tasted like a really good enchilada sauce. This evening, I decided to add a little bit of it to my chicken and rice dish, which was otherwise bland. It ended up being perfect! My entire family loved that little ‘kick.’ It is not too hot at all. It is made with African Bird’s Eye Chilli and a blend of ingredients – sun-ripened lemons, garlic, onion and spice. Very impressive!
