August Degustabox

Lots of lovely treats in this month’s Degustabox. I have been enjoying the latest Nutripots for my lunches while everyone else is out at work or school.  They are the perfect size for me and are very tasty.  I like the fact that they are nutritionally balanced and contain plenty of protein to keep me full for longer.  this time we have been trying the Moroccan Couscous flavour and the Aromatic Thai Noodles variety.  Cooking for the family has taken on an Indian flavour this month with Geeta’s Curry Pastes: packed full of exotic flavours. Mexican food has been up there too as we have been trying Tabasco Sweet & Sticky Barbecue Sauce & Marinade, as well as Capsicana’s Chilli & Honey Mexican Cook Sauce.

For breakfast I have been indulging in a trip down memory lane remembering my time in Switzerland working in a hotel.  I had Bircher Muesli every day for breakfast and it’s been nice to try out Dorset Cereals Bircher Muesli, which has been super easy to prepare and very tasty indeed. Snackwise we have had Rakusen’s Snackers which are great served with dips or cream cheese.  Also for those who like olives, Oloves are a good way to eat them on the go as they have no stones and come in a handbag friendly snack pack.There was also Willy Chase’s Fit Corn to try which went down very well with the troops here.

To drink we’ve had Clipper Tea which is a favourite brand of mine, but we have been trying the Lime & Ginger Green Tea which adds a bit of zest to the usual green tea flavours. On the alcoholic front there has been Mahou Cinco Estrellas, which is an international premium lager from Madrid.  I’ve drunk Get More Multivitamins quite a lot over the last few years, so  was pleased to get sent one of their bottles and the chance to try out a new flavour (to me).
