See that drink up there? That is what I have for lunch every day using frozen fruit like blueberries, mango, peach, strawberries or raspberries. Two weeks off while in NC and I really missed them. I should have used store kefir while away but I was bad and now paying for changing my eating habits. Remember that plate of boiled peanuts I had for lunch? No will power at times. The protein shakes with kefir are so convenient and tasty, plus all the health benefits. I use a low carb protein drink from BJ's called "eas advantedge". Using frozen fruit makes it like a milkshake thickness.
Strawberry, kefir and protein shake.
Do you know what kefir is? It is similar to yogurt. I make my own kefir but it is in the dairy section of most grocery stores. You know me and my "real deal" opinion. Kefir is full of protein and low in sugar/carbs plus a great probiotic. Definitely I can not eat it plain but I don't like plain yogurt either. Kefir is great for the digestive track. My main reason for using it and I do see a change for the good. I'm not trying to push this on anyone but if you have problems with IBS as I do it might be helpful.
Here is a great site to read about Kefir and the benefits of drinking it.

There are many informative videos on youtube. If you think it is something you would like to try let me know and I should have some extra grains to give away. If not we can split an order if enough are interested.
Speaking of interested............message me if you would like to come for a demonstration with a pressure cooker. I would like to do the demo around the middle of April. Remember "Pass it On"
I have never heard of Kefir, but will sure get some now and give it a try...sounds like a keeper for sure!
