FEATURED FLAVOR OF THE DAY

Raspberry Lemon is my featured seasonal flavor of the day 🍋

 I like to cook/bake in season.  You get the most out of your produce because they are at their peak and are the best quality and have the best flavor!

Today, I am talking about raspberries and lemons: a beautiful partnership 😉

Here are some benefits of raspberries:

  • They are a good source of Vitamin C (antioxidant)  and fiber
  • 1 cup has only 62 calories
  • They also come in a variety of colors which you are more likely to see at Farmers Markets
Here are some benefits of lemons:
  • They are also a good source of Vitamin C (antioxidant) and fiber (so pairing these 2 fruits together maximizes their benefits)
  • They are a citrus fruit so they contain citric acid which helps to prevent kidney stones
  • There are different varieties ranging from sweet (meyer lemons) to sour 
Raspberries and lemons together produce a nice balance between sweet and tart and offer you lots of vitamins and antioxidants together 

I keep it real  with my seasonal raspberry lemon bread: A Spring and Summer time delight featuring fresh lemons and raspberries picked at their peak folded carefully into batter ensuring their fresh taste in every bite

IT'S NATIONAL FLUFFERNUTTER DAY

What is a Fluffernutter?? A Fluffernutter is basically a peanut butter and marshmallow cream ( fluff ) sandwich 🥜🍞 If you've never had one.....you should.....just to try, they're delicious but filling and full of sugar thanks to the highly processed marshmallow creme.  At Garcia Bread Co ., we don't have a Fluffernutter flavor so we're going to celebrate with our new addition to our family:  Banana Peanut Butter Chip   🍌🥜available in loaf, muffin, or baked donut form 🙌👏: A unique combination of fresh bananas and sweet and salty creamy peanut butter chips all throughout the batter. This is so decadent it feels like a treat or dessert but is so nutritious it can be enjoyed as a quick breakfast any day of the week.  And, remember.....all of our products have no added sugar (sweetened with applesauce and honey ) and no added saturated fats (a small amount of sunflower oil which is rich in vitamins ....especially E , and antioxidants to stay moist and flavor...

I MADE IT!

I did it!! 20 Day Challenge is successfully completed!!! Here is what I learned from this experience: You can do ANYTHING for 20 days! Eating real, whole foods all the time keeps you satisfied with more energy and feeling better about yourself. It forced me to eat better and be creative in getting the best nutrition into my body it gave me new, healthy recipes that I didn't know existed I will do this again....maybe a few times a year I am proud of myself 👏 While I am excited I completed the challenge, I will need to be careful in introducing certain foods back into my diet; sugars, etc.... I know I am going to limit my fried and processed foods if at all.......no real benefits to them.....with that said.....Where are the jelly beans????  If you know me, you know I love my Easter candy.....in moderation people....in moderation 🙌                                     ...
