MISS MARIA'S GUIDE TO A HEALTHIER HALLOWEEN

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE 🎃

 If you're like me, you love Fall 🍂 (the beautiful changing colors, warm smells in the air, cooler weather, and yummy fall foods) and all the Holidays that come with up.....starting with Halloween!

I'm going to  Keep It Real for you and share with you my favorite Halloween treats that are healthier for you than others......Here we go:

  1. Dark Chocolate of any kind: Dark chocolate contains lots of antioxidants and can help fight inflammation.  Look for chocolate that has at least 70% cocoa....the darker the better 
  2. Any candy with nuts: Nuts are high in good fats and Vitamin E which can help lower cholesterol 
  3. Candy Corn: You either love it or hate it.  I absolutely love it!! It actually has less sugar (22 grams opposed to 30 grams in other candies)  I like to pair my candy corn with peanuts for added health benefits.  
  4. Mini size candy bars: Anything mini is going to better for you because it helps you control the portion size so you'll eat less fat and calories 🙌
And of course, my favorite Halloween treat is my famous Pumpkin Dark Chocolate Pumpkins: Our same Pumpkin Dark Chocolate Chip Bread recipe in the shape of cute pumpkins perfect for any Holiday Party especially on Halloween 🎃

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 🙌                                     ...
