It’s time for the June GoodnessMe Box! The June GoodnessMe Box celebrated the 5th Birthday of GoodnessMe Box and it was another winner. Mine arrived nice and early in the month this time which is always appreciated. As per usual I got the vegan box and it was packed with goodies – shall we see what was inside?
Broccoli Chips
Who knew broccoli chips were a thing! These were crunchy and lightly salted and made for an excellent snack. I love broccoli in all its forms so the fact I enjoyed these shouldn’t have come as a surprise, but I definitely did! I think I need to try the wasabi flavour next!
Corn Tortillas
These tortillas have long been my go-to whenever I can get my hands on them, so I was excited to see these in the June GoodnessMe Box. I’ve even eaten at the restaurant before which was equally delicious! I used the tortillas for an excellent couple of nights of tacos and was a very happy camper indeed.
Prebiotic Chocolate
I have to admit, I was pretty intrigued by these prebiotic chocolate when I spotted it! I liked that this was dark chocolate so it wasn’t too sweet, although the raspberry definitely added plenty of sweetness. It wasn’t as smooth as some of the other vegan chocolates I have tried, but it was fairly tasty and made for a good snack.
Organic Coffee
I’m not usually one for instant coffee but I’m also not one to waste coffee in any form! Turns out they weren’t kidding when they called this one dark & intense – it was full flavoured and really tasty. I also loved that it was certified organic and that the company gives back to local farmers and communities. I’ll definitely be checking out more of their products.
Queso Sauce
I had seen these sauces in my local health food store before and had always been intrigued, so I was excited to see this in the June GoodnessMe Box. It was super simple to whip up and made an excellent addition to some weekend nachos, as well as the aforementioned tacos. It was creamy, tangy and delicious.
Empowder
This was another item I was intrigued by the in June GoodnessMe Box! It’s a shiitake mushroom powder that they recommend adding to basically anything to add a nutritional boost. I used it in the base of a broth for a noodle soup which added delicious flavour and made for an excellent dinner. I can’t really know whether it did anything for my gut health, but it certainly didn’t hurt!
Pea Protein
Last but not least was this pea protein. I liked that it didn’t have any added flavour so I could use it in pretty much anything. I have been mixing it into my yoghurt on my muesli in the morning post the gym which has been working well. I’ve only used a little bit so far, but so-far-so-good!
