Lean Cuisine Salad Additions

I was able to try the new Lean Cuisine Salad Additions free through Bzz Agent.  I tried 2 of the 4 varieties.  I tried the Southwest Style Chicken and the Cranberry Chicken varieties.  I liked the Cranberry Chicken one better, mainly because of the dressing.  I didn't love either of them.  This past month I've been focusing on eating healthier.  I have been making salads at home with lots of fresh veggies and fruits and homemade dressing.  I'm not a huge fan of hot meats and veggies on my salad so this wasn't the best fit for me.  If I was short on time and working away from home I might consider these.  However for now I'd rather make my own salad, or buy a salad kit in the produce section.

Stella Artois

I got an awesome Chalice from Bzz Agent. It was for the Stella Artois Bzz Campaign.  Obviously it is illegal to get free beer in Utah as they have some very strict drinking laws.  It was also a little difficult to come by this beer as you can only purchase it at a state owned liquor store.  That's because it's considered a high point beer. This also means you can't get it on tap here.

So I found it in a liquor store here so we could give it a try. I'm not a huge beer drinker, however my husband is.  So I thought he would be the perfect one to test it out.  We followed the 9 step pouring ritual (our beer had too much head so we need a little more practice).  You can check out the 9 step pouring ritual here.  My husband thought it was an ok beer overall.  It's just not what he normally prefers.  However next time we are out of state I'll make sure to pack the chalice so he can try it out on tap (that could make a huge difference).

For some reason I can't get a picture to load on here today.  I'll try later, or you can check the pictures out on my facebook or twitter accounts.

Don't forget to check out Bzz Agent if you'd like to try free products just for reviewing them.

Private Selections

Over the holidays my family and I were able to try Private Selections.  You can buy it at your local Smith's or Kroger store.  As with most other people I thought this was just another generic product.  However after trying it I'm hooked.  This is way better quality than you would get from a generic labeled product.  It's gourmet food without the expensive price tag.  Check out what all I got in my Bzz Kit from Bzz Agent in the picture below.

I also got several coupons to try some other foods for free and some discount coupons.  I still have a couple discount coupons left, they expire in just over a week so let me know if you'd like one too.

With my free products I got some marinara sauce and made some delicious squash ravioli.  I was really impressed with how good this bottled sauce tasted.  I usually doctor up my sauces if I get them out of a bottle or can.  This however was seasoned to perfection and I didn't have to do anything but warm it up.  We also were able to get some free garlic stuffed olives which are to die for.  The cheese we tried out for free also was amazing too.  In fact the cheese is over in the deli with all the other high quality cheeses.  My family and I all loved each of the products we've tried so far.  I highly recommend heading to your nearest Smith's or Kroger to try them out for yourselves.  You won't be disappointed. 

 

 

 

Also before you head to Smith's make sure you look on their website.  You can add coupons to your shoppers card.  It's great because you don't have to clip the coupons.  You can also go to Saving Star and register your savings card.  Then you can load these coupons to your card.  This is an added way to save.  When you purchase the item it will add the amount of the coupon to your "bank".  Then you can cash them out when you get up to $5.00 or more.  I've cashed in over $15 with Amazon gift cards.  Happy shopping, let me know what you think and what recipes you try out!
