Evol Mini Burritos

I recently had the opportunity to try these Evol (which is "love" spelled backwards!) burritos. 

They were shipped to my house in a huge styrofoam container full of dry ice.  My mom had a field day learning how cold dry ice actually is.


I got a variety pack with bean/cheese, veggie fajita, and chicken/rice.  I tried the veggie fajita variety first because it is vegan:


Yes, these are actually MINI burritos, perfect for a snack!  I had this as part of my breakfast.  Although I don't normally like bell peppers, this was actually pretty tasty, and I appreciated the wheat tortilla.


Some time later, I tried the bean and cheese burrito.  I didn't like this as much (I would have liked another wheat-y tortilla), but for 7 grams of protein, I guess complaining wouldn't do much!


I've seen these burritos at Whole Foods, but I believe I've seem them also at other "healthy" markets.  They seem like perfect little things to keep in your freezer for those moments.  I know burritos are definitely one of my weaknesses.

    I've never even heard of those! But I have a few of those not-so-good Tina's burritos in my freezer and so I probably should look into some of these!

    Mmmmm burritos. I can eat those non-stop so I tend to stay far far away from them. I have no self control with certain foods

The Return of My Favorite Things

Over the years, I've learned a lot about website optimization, SEO, and all the things I should have been doing with my blog to increase its hits.  Also during that time, I've encountered many blogs that are "well-optimized," and boy, do they feel impersonal.  So that means, I'm just going to carry on however I want (it's not like I'm making any money here [anymore -- yet??])! I'm going to review a few things, not because I was sent anything (though I'm still happy to do that -- contact me !), but because these are things that I use, and if you are so inclined, so should you! I will probably be adding more reviews here, since, let's be honest, they are what bring hits to the blog, and I want people to come and read so I don't feel like I'm writing to a cyber vortex! Invisibobble Hair Tie I have been using this for close to two years now, first tipped-off by a video by one of my favorite YouTube creators, FrmHeadtoToe .  Th...

Yep, on March 20, 2006, I went to the track and ran my first 3.25 miles with the dreams of marathon glory (or even half-marathon glory). I think it was one of the best decisions I've ever made.  I was a sprint/tra...

Sharkies Prize Pack (giveaway)

It's giveaway time! On a long run recently, I took a couple packs of Sharkies Organic Sports Chews  with me to keep me going on a hot day.  I got through those 15 miles  eating these, versus normal gels.  I've been opting to eat chews over gels in my running nowadays because I just find them more palatable and easier on my stomach for some reason.  Plus, they do pack a few more calories, which is a good thing in this case. I normally associate cute little chews with candy, but these actually contain natural electrolytes.  Plus, they were light to carry and very tasty, too!  Each pack is about 140 calories.  The only downside I found to the sport chews is that they stuck to my teeth a tiny bit more than my normal choices, and the packaging gave me a fight at times.  This could easily be solved by conslidating them into a baggie pre-run, or eating them BEFORE running would be much easier than during. Want to win the prize pack below?...
