GIVEAWAY & Review: Tropical Traditions Coconut Oil

I was very excited about the opportunity to review Tropical Tradition Virgin Coconut Oil. You may have noticed that I have been posting recipes that I have come up with and tested that are clean eating recipes, well, in my research and learning about clean eating coconut oil keeps coming up.

I wanted to share a few ways I used this coconut oil with you that  are not related to a recipe that I was pleased with the results:
* As a deep conditioner to rub in to ends of my long, curly hair (it seems to help from it becoming too tangled and easier to comb through when it does.)
* As a lip balm- simply just apply a tint amount to your lips and rub in (it made my lips soft.)
* As a makeup remover (just a tiny, tiny bit is needed and I found it very effective in removing makeup, even the harder to remove eye liner it removed easily.)

Hopefully you also had a chance to read (and try out!) these recipes I have recently posted on my blog that I used coconut oil in.

Baked Puff Pancake






And you just have to try this!!!!

Blueberry Banana Bread

Every time I make this, my house smells absolutely wonderful and my family can't wait for it to be done. I am hammered by "How much longer?" through the entire hour it is in the oven. I used Tropical Traditions coconut oil to make both of these recipes.

Tropical Traditions is America's source for coconut oil. Their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil is hand crafted in small batches by family producers, and it is the highest quality coconut oil they offer. You can read more about how virgin coconut oil is different from other coconut oils on their website: What is Virgin Coconut Oil? You can also watch the video they produced about Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil:

Tropical Traditions also carries other varieties of affordable high quality coconut oil. Visit their website to check on current sales, to learn about the many uses of coconut oil, and to read about all the  advantages of buying coconut oil online. Since the FDA does not want us to discuss the health benefits of coconut oil on a page where it is being sold or given away, here is the best website to read about the health benefits of coconut oil.

Review: Paradise Coconut Oil



My Thoughts:

I love using coconut oil and was thrilled to be able to review TheraVita Paradise Coconut Oil. Below you can see a list of 8 different recipes that I have shared on SGBG in the past that I used coconut oil in, plus a link to see all the recipes that I have used coconut oil. It is such a wonderful oil that add a very slight coconut flavor and makes a baked product moist and more palatable. Coconut oil offers wonderful health benefits including being a source of fatty acids, helping increase your energy, are ketogenic, make help lower your risk for heart disease and help you lose weight.

To see more benefit from coconut oil, you need to consume more that just in a few baked goods here and there, so I thought I would try a teaspoon in my coffee every morning. It melts very quickly in hot coffee (see picture at the bottom) and can easily be consumed in your coffee. It does float on the top (since oil and water separate) but as you drink it you do get some of the oil and coffee.

I plan to start trying to make my own beauty products using coconut oil, so check back with me later as I share some recipes and thoughts with you on that.

Product Description from TheraVita:

Paradise is a 100% natural coconut oil that can be used for hair, skin, eating, cooking and smoothies!

Here are a sampling of some of the recipes on Save Green Being Green that I use Coconut Oil In:

Or look at all the recipes with coconut oil on Save Green Being Green.



I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Slow Cooker Saturday: Pork and Pea Curry




This recipe was a bit of an experiment because I was trying to see if I could achieve the desired flavors I wanted without using coconut milk, since so often curry recipes only call for half of the can. What am I going to do with the other half a can? I suppose I could make Pina Coladas! :) I had great success in achieving the flavors I desired by using coconut oil and greek yogurt instead. I hope you enjoy this recipe too!


Slow Cooker Pork and Pea Curry
2 lb pork, cubed
1 can garbanzo beans
1 med onion, thinly sliced
1 16 oz. bag frozen peas
3 C tomato sauce
3 T curry powder
2 T coconut oil, melted
3/4 C plain greek yogurt
1 C chicken broth

Directions:

  • Lightly brown cubed pork on the stovetop.
  • Mix together browned pork, garbanzo beans, onion, and peas in the slow cooker.
  • Whisk together broth and yogurt, then mix in tomato sauce, curry powder and melted coconut oil.
  • Pour sauce over the contents of the slow cooker and stir together.
  • Cook on low for 8-9 hours
  • Serve over brown rice.
  • Enjoy!

Make It Monday: Cherry Coconut Bread

I just love breads and muffins and they are generally always well received by my family. You might recognize this recipe as being very similar to my zucchini bread recipe, which it is. Once you have a good base for a muffin or quick bread recipe, it's just a matter of finding the right fruits/vegetables and seasoning to add to it. Yes, you do have to accomodate for the differing water content, so it might not work across the board, but you'll be close.

2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2/3 C raw sugar (honey or maple syrup works too)
1/2 C unsweetened shredded coconut

Popcorn Teacher/Coach/Neighbor. Gift & Review of Franklin's Gourmet Popcorn Packs #ad






You still have time for a last minute teacher or coach gift and all you need to do is print off the FREE printable above and check out your pantry for some popcorn, head to the grocery store, or if you have a bit of time yet, I would highly recommend Franklin's Gourmet Popcorn Packs that you can buy on Amazon.



My Thoughts

What I love about Franklin's Gourmet Popcorn Packs is that they are made with 100% Organic Non-GMO popping corn and 100% Organic Coconut oil. My packs of popcorn were all 6oz, which makes a pretty huge bowl of popcorn that is the perfect for a family movie night for our family of four. They also sell pack in other sizes that include 2oz., 4 oz., 8oz., and 12 oz. All of them come in a pack of 24 individual packets that include the oil and seasoning and popcorn you need to make the given size of popcorn. This box of packets if perfect for using to make up gifts for teachers, coaches and neighbors.

We have tried the popcorn ourselves and is very tasty. There is quite a bit of seasoning, so you might want to season carefully and only use about half and then taste to see if you need more. It tastes much better than getting popcorn at the movie theater plus is it made with higher quality ingredients.

Product Description from Franklin's


Franklin's Gourmet Popcorn is a delicious organic popcorn portion pack that can be cooked in your popcorn machine or in a pot. The pre-measured pack includes popping corn (organic, non gmo, gluten free), seasoning, and 100% coconut oil. Its pre-measured for a perfect pop every time. Makes delicious popcorn that tastes just like the movies!




I received the above product for the purpose of reviewing on this blog. No monetary compensation was received. All thoughts,opinions and images within this post belong to this blog.

GIVEAWAY and Review: Earth Balance Products

I was pleased to have the opportunity to review Earth Balance food products, which you can find in many Natural Foods stores or in the Natural Foods Section at conventional grocery stores. I was sent some free product coupons so that I could choose products from my local grocer and I am going to share one of my coupons with a lucky reader. The prices on these products featured in the photos in this post varied from $2.97-$4.97.

My first choice for a product to sample was the Earth Balance Natural Buttery Spread with Olive Oil, which I thought sounded like it was closest to the light butter spread we currently have been using. It was sampled just the spread on a piece of toast and we found it to taste buttery without having a fake butter taste, which I have found that sometimes butter spreads have. The Natural Buttery Spread was available in 3 varieties including Original, With Olive Oil, ans Soy Free.

It was also sampled in the kids' conventional macaroni in cheese. I have found that my kids will notice it tastes different if I use a butter type product that has too fake a flavor or an after taste. This spread had neither of those. I had the macaroni & cheese with them and thought it tasted great.

Other products that were available at my local grocer in the Natural Foods section were 3 different varieties of soy milk, 2 varieties of mayo and coconut spread. I plan to try both the mayo and coconut spread in the near future. I currently use coconut oil in baking and really enjoy it. I am also a big Mayo fan and have not found a natural version that compares to the conventional version that I enjoy. I am hoping that Earth Balance Mindful Mayo will be the natural mayo that I have been looking for.




ONE LUCKY READER WILL WIN THIS COUPON FOR A FREE EARTH BALANCE PRODUCT!!!!!

Make It Monday: Banana Cake

Extra ripe bananas? Milk gone sour? Use them both up and make some delicious banana cake. Don't throw away food that could be used in a recipe that calls for it. If don't have any sour milk, don't worry, a 1/2 tsp of lemon juice in the milk will turn it sour easily enough. This cake is perfect on it's own, dusted with powdered sugar, served with whipped cream, or -- my favorite -- topped with cream cheese frosting!






Banana Cake


1/2 C butter or coconut oil
1 C raw cane sugar
2 C whole wheat flour (I like to use white whole wheat)
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp. sea salt
1/2 C + 2 T sour milk
1 C mashed rip bananas
2 eggs
1/2 tsp almond extract

Gluten-Free Banana Muffins Recipe, PLUS Good Cook Kitchen Tools


I took the opportunity to make some Gluten Free Banana Muffins while I was reviewing these 5 items for Good Cook. I was not able to use all 5 items for this one recipe, but I did use 3 of them. I did take pictures of the other 2 items for you to see what they were and how I used them. I will talk more about his 2 items below with their pictures.

I used the Good Cook egg separator to do just that, separate my egg whites from the yolk. This fits very nicely on the side of a kitchen aid mixer.

Next I used the Good Cook Double-Sided Flip Measuring Spoons to measure out the baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and vanilla.

Finally I used the Good Cook Smart Scoop Ice Cream Scoop to scoop out the mixture in to muffin cups. This ice cream scoop scoops out the perfect amount to fill them 2/3 full.

Gluten Free Banana Muffins

3 bananas, mashed
3 eggs whites
3/4 C raw sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp pure vanilla
1/4 C coconut oil
1 1/2 C all purpose Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Baking Flour

Directions:


  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Blend together bananas, egg whites, raw sugar. 
  • Stir in baking powder, soda, cinnamon, vanilla and coconut oil.
  • Fold in Gluten Free Baking Flour
  • Scoop in to muffin cups (makes 15)
  • Bake for 18 minutes
  • Enjoy!

I was also sent the Good Cook 4 in 1 Safecut Can Opener and I have to tell you I just love this! This is going to make saving cans for crafts a breeze since it cuts the top completely off and there is no sharp edges.



Lastly, I had a chance to use the Utensil Pot Clip and what I love about this is that my spoon sits over the top of the pan and I am not dripping anything on my stove top or a spoon rest (that I would have to wash). It makes clean up a breeze!



Readers can participate in the first Good Cook 5-day product giveaway on Facebook starting June 2 – June 7 and win selected products they can add to their drawer. Also, there will be Instant winners! Every drawer entered has a chance to win an instant prize, and participants can submit a new drawer every day for a chance to win.
