Review: Blue Isle Mediterranean French Onion Yogurt Spread

So here we are.  The final Blue Isle review out of the batch of free products that Blue Isle so graciously sent me to try out.  There were a couple of flavors that I didn't review, but this 8.0 ounce container of Blue Isle Mediterranean French Onion Yogurt Spread will be the fourth and last that I take a look at (unless they send me more).  They've been successful so far, so I was very anxious to give this one a try.  Before I jump into the review, I'll get the nutritional stuff out of the way:  this one has eight servings that are each sized as two tablespoons.  Within each of those servings are 70 calories and one gram of protein.

Review: Blue Isle Mediterranean Strawberry Yogurt Spread

Today is once again me plowing through another Blue Isle review as I was given several samples to try out.  So far, I've been struck by the absolutely utility of these as they can be used as spreads, dips, etc.  Today's review is no different as this 8.0 ounce container of Blue Isle Mediterranean Strawberry Yogurt Spread can be used for many purposes as well.  Something I found interesting about this was that at the time of this review writing, the Blue Isle website lists this as its newest flavor.  Seems odd that a company would take so long to create a product based on one of the most common fruits.  Anyway, this container has eight two tablespoon-sized servings and each serving is 60 calories with one gram of protein each.  As with yogurt in general, this spread is also high in probiotics.

Review: Blue Isle Mediterranean Spicy Vegetable Yogurt Spread

I mentioned in a previous review that representatives of Blue Isle sent me some samples of their flavors to try out.  Today's review is another one of those samples.  Like all of their products, Blue Isle proclaims that these can be used in smoothies, dips, spreads, mayo replacements, etc., so that's how I'm going to think of this 8.0 ounce container of  Blue Isle Mediterranean Spicy Vegetable Yogurt Spread.  There's eight servings in each container and each serving is two tablespoons that will measure out to 70 calories per serving.  The advertise the probiotic qualities of this front and center on the lid, so I guess I should point that out too.  Hooray for probiotics!

Review: Blue Isle Mediterranean Blueberry Yogurt Spread

The free sample gravy train has been running pretty hard for me over the past couple of months and for me (and possibly the readers), that is a good thing.  It gives me a variety of different things to eat and also review.  Today's review is another product off of that free sample gravy train as I'm looking at this container of Blue Isle Mediterranean Blueberry Yogurt Spread.  Now, everyone is familiar with flavored cream cheese (well, almost everyone), so this is a spin on that with the spread being made from yogurt as opposed to cream cheese.  What's also unique about this is that Blue Isle advertises this as being able to be used in spreads, dips, smoothies (?!), replacements in recipes for mayo, etc.  It's a very versatile product.  A container of this is 8.0 ounces and within that container are eight servings, each measuring out to about two tablespoons.  Each serving packs in 60 calories and a gram of protein.

Review: Mediterra Yogurt & Oat Bar with Apricot & Pistachio

I'm trying to steadily plow through my last few purchases from my Fresh Thyme shopping splurge a while back and as I work my way though, I'll be hitting on another Mediterra review today.  I had some nice success with them in my first review, so I was anxious to dive into this Mediterra Yogurt & Oat Bar with Apricot & Pistachio that I picked up for $1.99.  The bar itself is 1.6 ounces, 180 calories and has seven grams of protein packed in.  It's all natural and gluten free, so it does have those healthy taglines slapped onto it as well.

Review: Mediterra Yogurt & Oat Bar with Cherry & Pistachio

Fresh Thyme strikes again!  It's another new product from my first trip to the store itself.  In that trip, I picked up a very interesting, Mediterranean inspired product when I grabbed this Mediterra Yogurt & Oat Bar with Cherry & Pistachio off the shelf for $1.99.  The bar itself is 1.6 ounces and packs in 180 calories and seven grams of protein.  It's also all natural and gluten free, so there are some clear benefits to this one.  I wish one of the benefits would be that when eating this bar, I would automatically be transported to a beach (preferably nude) somewhere in the Mediterranean.  Probably not going to happen though, unfortunately.  Instead, I'll just have to settle for testing out this bar.

Review: MorningStar Farms Mediterranean Chickpea Veggie Burgers

I've eaten my fair share of MorningStar Farms products for the blog, but the funny thing is that I rarely think to purchase them when I am at the store, so I don't eat them at all except when I do reviews. I guess I don't get them often because they are at the opposite end of the freezer case (let's call it the Netherworld) from where I usually frequent. Recently, I just happened to be strolling thought the Netherworld and I glanced in and saw the "NEW" label on these MorningStar Farms Mediterranean Chickpea Veggie Burgers and being that I'm a sucker for new stuff, I hurriedly reached in and grabbed a box. This box set me back $2.99 at Kroger and each box contains four frozen veggie burgers. Each burger is 2.36 ounces and has 110 calories with 10 grams of protein.
