The new Alouette Portions will be available in two flavors – Original and Italian Herbs and are hitting grocery store shelves this summer!
Alouette was an “all-natural” fit to sponsor the Portion Size Me Summer Tour, which will travel the country in a 1974 Airstream Sovereign Trailer and make stops at local zoos, book stores, walks and festivals.The brand recently launched Alouette Portions, a new line of 100 percent all-natural, ready-to-eat portion-sized spreadable cheese with 40 calories per individually wrapped serving, and 60 percent less sodium than other spreadable portion-sized cheeses on the market. The new product is available in two flavors – Original and Italian Herbs – and retails for $3.99 in grocery store deli sections nationwide.
I am loving these little Alouette Portions, I take them with me to the race track for my snack with rice crackers.
Tired of being picked on, unhappy with his appearance, and feeling down on himself, Marshall Reid decided to change his lifestyle and demanded that his family help him along the way. His plan was simple. For thirty-one days, Marshall made a conscious decision about every piece of food he put into his body.
An idea was born. For an entire month, the Reids as a family "portion sized" themselves. Weary of trying to follow strict, depriving diets, they instead paid close attention to how they ate by looking at portions, reading labels, and learning about ingredients. In the process, they came to know so much more about each other-and about themselves.
Follow Marshall and his family on their journey and learn the helpful and healthful tips and tricks they used to create a whole new lifestyle. Marshall knew his plan wouldn't always be easy, but his safe advice and kid-friendly tips will have your child eager to take charge in the kitchen, and in life as well!
“With the Portion Size Me lifestyle, I didn’t want to give up cheese as one of my favorite foods,” said Reid. “Thankfully, Alouette has done the ‘portioning’ for me by offering a 40-calorie all-natural option of their delicious spreadable cheese that I can enjoy virtually anytime of day – on a whole-grain bagel or toast before school, with crackers or pretzel sticks at lunch, or even with my fruits and veggies as a snack. Plus, the Portions are made with just fresh milk and cream, and you can’t get anymore all-natural than that.”
Fans of Alouette Cheese can follow the Portion Size Me Summer Tour on Facebook (facebook.com/alouettecheese) beginning on June 12 for thechance to win exciting prizes.

The kids loves the granola mix on some yogurt, and they even loved the freeze dried veggies!! The corn was pretty good I say. I found the drinks to be too sweet for me (used to drinking plain water), so my oldest is enjoying those. I made some burgers with the Jalapeno Jack Cheese mix and they were great, and not too spicy, even the little ones didn't notice.Jalapeno Jack Cheese burger seasoning mix, made for some tasty but not too spicy burgers.
My oldest loved all these flavored drink mixes.

Keeping Cool with R.W. Knudsen Family and Santa Cruz Organic Drinks
The R.W. Knudsen Family have these wonderful fruit juice water Spritzers, a refreshing alternative to sodas. They are made from real fruit and sparkling water. The RWK Spritzers have no added sugar and no artificial ingredients and come in a variety of flavors.
Flavors we were sent to try are:
Boysenberry SpritzerJamaican Lemonade SpritzerMango Fandango SpritzerRed Raspberry Spritzer
I had my Nephews over that day so they were lucky to get to try them too. After a hot day at the park they were great to drink down. As you tell from the look on the kiddo's faces, they all loved them!
I snuck a Jamaican Lemonade Spritzer for myself to sip later on (too many carbs for this diabetic) but love the big Gluten Free they put on the can. I think it's pretty great tasting, it has white grape & lemon juice with ginger ale flavors. The Mango Fandango Spritzer is probably my fave, with apple juice, mango and passionfruit juices.
R.W. Knudsen Family links: Store locator, Facebook and Twitter.Thumbs up all around!
The Santa Cruz Organic folks also sent us a few of their fruit juices to try out too.
These are packaged in 32-ounce glass bottles and are certified USDA organic. They offer over 20 wonderful flavors of juices and nectars.
We were sent their Lemonade, Mango Lemonade, Limeade, Peach Lemonade flavors, and have been enjoying them in a glass of ice. I loved the flavored lemonades, but as you know, I can't do sweet flavored drinks anymore so the kiddos enjoyed them.

Oransi Fridge Air Purifier Giveaway and Review
The Oransi Fridge Air Purifier is an economical way to refresh any kitchen. This tiny kitchen gadget (it’s only 2” x 4”) easily fits into any fridge and silently removes all bacteria and odors.
It helps fruits and veggies stay fresher longer thereby reducing food waste which saves money on your grocery bill. Best of all, it eliminates the strange stink that can sometimes fill your fridge and kitchen. There are no expensive filters to replace and no harmful ozone. It takes 2 AA batteries (not included) which last up to 3 months on average.Can you find the Oransi Fridge Filter?
I have been using it in my fridge for over a month now and my biggest stink before were onions, mostly the chopped ones. Honestly I have not been smelling them in my fridge like they used to before the Oransi moved in. What a great little gadget, it's super duper quiet (you can hear the fan faintly when held up to your ear).
Find Oransi on Facebook and Twitter.
