Happy Friday ALL! Today sure didn't start out like a Friday should, but, I have a rule for Fridays ~ They have to be good days and you have to be happy ALL day! So, I am "faking it til I make it" today! My breakfast alone was enough to seriously improve my mood and forget about the crazy start to my day.
I started off by sampled the AppleBerry Vitatop ~ Check out the stats (1 WWP for the entire top)! Plus ~the top of the muffin is the absolute BEST part - such a win, win!
It was THIS description that sold me on trying this one first ~ "made with real apple chunks, cranberries, blueberries & organic evaporated cane juice. All natural, 100 calories, low fat, cholesterol free muffin tops with oat bran and 15 vitamins & minerals."
I popped it in the toaster to make it crispy and warm.
OMG ~ So amazing! This top is loaded with apples and tons of berries - there was definitely no skimping here. I liked how moist and sweet it was ~ it doesn't taste like a "healthy bran" muffin at all - LOVED it!
I made up a big side bowl of fruit ~ organic strawberries, blueberries, apricot.
All together with my FAVORITE TJ's Fat Free Honey Greek Greek Yogurt for 2 WWP of protein.
Here are some FUN THINGS going on in The Bay this weekend:

Catch ya'all later!
Yum - I definitely need to try those vitatops!
ReplyDeleteOoh that Vitatop sounds so good! I love the description. That fruit also looks great-- what an awesome breakfast :D
ReplyDeleteHappy friday!
Your breakfast looks great!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear about the challenge!
Glad you liked that Vitatop as I wasn't much of a fan! Maybe I should have tried it toasted instead? Have a great Friday!!
ReplyDeletethe vitatop looks really good! i've had the muffins but haven't been able to find the tops yet- you're right though, the top is the best part! i'll have to keep an eye out for them...
ReplyDeletecant wait to hear the challenge! and hooray for appleberry love! i also toasted mine :)
ReplyDeleteRunSarah ~ I LOVE all the chocolate flavors, the corn bread and this flavor so far. They are awesome.
ReplyDeleteAnne ~ It really was the best breakfast.
Marybe ~ It's going to be a fun two week challenge that I think will interest everyone. I am pairing up with another blogger so hopefully we get great results.
K ~ Yup, you have to toast them to make them extra tasty for sure. It makes them more like they just came out of the oven.
Steph ~ I've had the muffins too, but, honestly find the tops to be better. It's a mental thing, I do not like having to cut my muffin in half to get 100 calories :)
Janetha ~ I just saw that - yeah! I think it's a challenge you will like. Now I just need to find time to type up my post.
OMG those muffins looks fabulous! Awesome review. And great idea with toasting them. I'm totally drooling at this breakfast! :)
ReplyDeleteHealth ~ LOL, it was an awesome breakfast for sure! Toasting them makes them perfect and just out of the oven like.
ReplyDeletei ALMOST bought that flavor yesterday!! But im differing wether or not I want to do the Vita top or not as it has egg whites in it.. i have been vegan for over a year.;.. but there is NO such thing as a PERFECT diet, right?
ReplyDeleteDevan ~ I think there is always room for a little indulgence here and there. Life is too short to miss out on things you want to try...it's ok to be veganish on occasion I think. Vita's are pretty tasty and you can keep them in the freezer for occassional indulgences :)
