PROPERCORN : Food Product Review

Everyone enjoys a good munch in the evening and this truly is my biggest down fall!  Picture this... you crawl home from a busy day at the office and slide onto the sofa for a well deserved netflix and chill session.  Your halfway threw your favourite series episode and a serious case of the munchies kicks in.... But OH NO your on a diet!  Well worry no more, PROPERCORN is a low calorie snack but with all the flavour.  Guilt Free Goodness at its best.

The company are very proud of the fact that they are keeping people healthy.  As a fashion designer visual is always important to me and the cute and quirky designs would grab anyone eye straight off the shelf.  Fun branding all the way keeps this brand unique and fresh (literally).





  • Sweet & Salty
  • Lightly Sea Salted
  • Sweet Coconut & Vanilla 
  • Sour Cream & Chive
  • Fiery Worcester Sauce & Sun Dried Tomato





I literally love them all but if I had to pick my favourite it would have to be the Sweet Coconut and Vanilla.  Tho my partner in crime prefers the smooth peanut and almond (Peanuts arnt my jam).  I would love to try the new Twisted Honeycomb flavour as I def think its right up my street.

Its no secret that I am not the healthiest person but I do try and make some small substitutes like these and they really make all the difference in the grand scheme of things.  So next time your in Tesco or Asda pop over and grab a bag you wont be disappointed (Pun intended)

Easy One Ingredient Healthy Banana Ice Cream Recipe - Step by Step - Vegan/Dairy Free/Gluten Free

I have a terrible sweet tooth especially in the evenings.  My ultimate weakness is chocolate.  I would probably be a super model right now with out my addiction (Just Kidding :P).  Joking aside I would happily eat a whole share bar on my own easily and I find it very hard to have a cup of tea without anything to nibble on!  So I have to (for my own well being) have healthy alternatives on hand to beat the cravings.  Banana ice cream is not only delicious and easy to make but it also has some great health benefits too.



Some Facts on the Benefits of Bananas!
-Bananas contain nutrients that can help moderate blood sugar levels after meals. They may also reduce appetite by slowing stomach emptying.
-Bananas may help with weight loss. They are low in calories, high in nutrients and fiber, and may have appetite-reducing effects.
-Bananas may help relieve muscle cramps caused by exercise. They also provide excellent fuel for endurance exercise.
What you will need for this recipe
Serves one
2 bananas
Your flavours or topping of choice (optional)
Blender
Chopping board
Bowl

1.  Crop Bananas into 6 parts each.  Put in the bowl and freeze for approx an hour (until fairly hard)
2.  Take bananas from freezer.  
3.  Optional - At this point you can add some flavouring.  You can include peanut butter, caramel syrup, fruit or as I usually do a tea spoon of hot chocolate powder to give it a chocolatey kick. Grated dark chocolate is another great option.  You can add just about anything you like!
4.  Put all ingredient in blender and well... Blend.
5.  Put back in a bowl and leave in freezer until hard again (approx an hour)
6.  You can now eat it as it is or add a topping such as nuts, fruit, marshmallow or as I some grated chocolate. 



If you do decide to try this send me some pictures!  or if you have any flavour ideas for me I would love to hear them.
Enjoy
Peace and Love
