Today I enjoyed a PBF favorite… a noodle bowl!
My bowl o’ pasta was a bit different today, as it did not include my beloved red sauce. Instead I opted for a cheesy sauce made with melted Laughing Cow light original Swiss cheese wedge and Babybel cheese.
The combination of the two cheese flavors was delicious and definitely stood out against the chopped spinach and lightly steamed broccoli I also included in the bowl.
Though my bowl of noodly goodness was pretty darn fantastic, something else managed to steal the show.
So stinkin’ good!
Last week Stonyfield (the company that makes Oikos organic Greek yogurt) sent me some coupons to sample their new caramel and chocolate Greek yogurt.
If you read this blog with any regularity, you know I am basically in love with Greek yogurt for its creamy texture and fantastic protein content, so naturally I jumped at the chance to try the new dessert-like flavors.
All I can say is hoooooooly (organic) cow! 😀
Both flavors were incredibly delicious, though I think for the first time in my entire life I preferred the caramel variety to the chocolate.
I really liked how the caramel and chocolate “topping” was located at the bottom of the cup, because it allowed me to enjoy as much or as little of the sweetness I wanted to at any given bite. Gotta love a healthy way to satisfy that sweet tooth!
Now that I’ve all but professed my love for these new flavas, it’s your turn to give ’em a try!

My favorite chocolate indulgence would have to be fudgy, dark chocolate brownies. Bonus if they’re still warm from the oven.

I am in Guatemala right now, where they don’t have much eating chocolate. But the hot chocolate is to die for! Generally, though, my favorite combo of chocolate and caramel is in turtle candy!
I should add…I get back in a week-so I could still take advantage of this where I to win. 😀
Anything that has chocolate in it is fabulous but my fave is vanilla ice cream with hot fudge and rainbow sprinkles….Yum!
