My go-to Dairy Free Products

March 28, 2017

FacebookTwitterPinterestMixEmail

Since shortly after Mason was born we realized that he had a sensitivity to dairy so with a bit of resistance I decided to try going dairy free to see if that was in fact Mason’s issue. If you know me well, then you know that I am obsessed with cheese. I think me biggest misconception/fear before getting pregnant was that I was going to have to give up my favorite cheeses, fresh mozzarella and burrata. Thankfully my doctor let me know that it’s totally safe to eat soft cheeses as long as they are pasteurized so I thankfully did not have to give it up during my pregnancy. So, to have to give it up now that Mason was born was a hard pill to swallow at first.

It’s been almost six months of me eating no dairy and I have to say the longer I go the less I miss it. Every now and again, I’m not gonna lie when I walk past the fresh mozzarella at the store or see burrata on the menu at a restaurant I get a little FOMO. But thankfully I’ve found so many great dairy free alternatives that I thought I’d share with you all. There are products that I love so much now I don’t think I will go back to eating regular yogurt, ice cream, or milk again. I’ve even found some dairy free cheese that I love.

Dairy Free Alternatives-Dairy Free Products-Best Dairy Free Options-Have Need Want

1. Kite Hill soft truffle cheese. 2. So Delicious coconut milk. 3. Bobo’s bar. 4. So Delicious ice cream. 5. Silk almond milk yogurt. 6. Amy’s Kitchen dairy-free burrito. 7. Daiya vegan mac n cheese. 8. Amy’s Kitchen Thai green curry. 9. Daiya vegan pizza. 10. Pacific almond milk. 11. Kit Hill ravioli. 12. Amy’s Kitchen quinoa bowl. 13. Kit Hill cream cheese spread. 14. NuGo organic vegan protein bar.

I must say that the Kite Hill products are by far my favorite. Everything I have tried has tasted absolutely delicious. My test for if a dairy free alternative product is worth a gold medal is having Justin taste it. If he’s loving it as an option for lunch, dinner, or a snack then I know it’s good. Cause if he doesn’t then I’m having to buy double. One dairy free option for me and one regular option for him. I’d much rather find things he’ll enjoy eating and not feel like he’s having to give something up because I’m having to be dairy free for our baby. Just last night Justin requested that I buy another one of the Kite Hill soft truffle cheese spreads. He literally finished it before I was able to have any with my favorite crackers from Whole Foods.

Next I’ve got to give a shout out to the Daiya vegan mac n cheese. Oh boy it’s good. I mean honestly, I could barely taste the difference to regular mac n cheese. I was so surprised at how good it was I forced Justin to take and bit and his reaction was priceless. He literally took my spoon and scooped out a second tasting of it before handing it back to me. Thank goodness I know don’t have to buy him the Kraft mac n cheese anymore because I think he’ll be more than happy with my Daiya mac n cheese.

Now I’ve always been an Amy’s Kitchen fan. I was a vegetarian for 20 years. I love their frozen food for quick no fuss meals. I found that they have a slew of dairy free options of some of my favorites, like their bean burritos. The bean and rice burrito fixes my craving for them without needing the cheese. Their Thai green curry meal for two is so yummy. And almost all of their light & lean options are dairy free.

Since I’ve been doing my body back workout classes I’ve been really liking have protein bars to snack on before or after class before dinner. Finding a good dairy free protein bar was a little tough at first. I was so happy to find the Nugo organic bars. They’re so tasty, not powdery like some protein bars are.

One product I forgot to put in my main roundup that as I’m writing this I realize that they really need a mention are the bites from LARABAR. When you need a little pick me up or something to cure your sweet tooth craving then look now further than LARABAR mint chocolate truffles. No joke, they are the bomb dot com. I’m eating one now as I finish up writing this post.

Are you dairy free and don’t see a product that you think should be on this list, let me know! I’m always up to trying new foods!!

My gift to myself. My latest @chanelofficial bag a My gift to myself. My latest @chanelofficial bag and a freshly organized living room with new faux floral stems that fit in my amber glass vases perfectly! I purchased this beauty @therealreal and couldn't be happier with it. It's the perfect elevated everyday bag. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw the color. I'd been eyeing the Gabrielle Bag for a while and was glad I waited to pull the trigger till now. It was definitely worth the wait to score this color. Chanel has one of the best resale values so I know I can't go wrong splurging on this baby! ⁣

I also just sent out a large box of goods to The RealReal to consign as I am trying hard to pair down my closet and get everything organized before baby arrives in June. I know I have a long way to go but making a little progress daily is so much easier and not at all overwhelming.
16 weeks today and finally getting a first trimest 16 weeks today and finally getting a first trimester blog post out! I'm talking about the differences between first and second pregnancies. Some of the common changes most women will experience the second time around as well as some personal differences I've experienced thus far. I'm also sharing some bump pics that show just how different my baby bump can look depending on angle as well as time of day. I tell you, it's constantly changing in size! So if you're at all curious, click on over to the blog (link in bio) to give it a read! And if you're also pregnant, I'd love to know which of the differences you've experienced this pregnancy!
My favorite photo from the weekend. Truly blessed My favorite photo from the weekend. Truly blessed to live by the beach. Mason loves watching the waves with us and going down to the beach to build sand castles. When it's not so cold it's almost impossible to get him out of the ocean and off the beach!

This look is currently up on 𝒽𝒶𝓋𝑒 𝑛𝑒𝑒𝒹 𝓌𝒶𝓃𝓉 today so be sure to click on over to the blog (link in bio) to check it out and get my outfit deets. PS my booties are super old but I found them still available and on major sale in black and grey.
𝒩𝑒𝓌 𝒴𝑒𝒶𝓇, 𝒩𝑒𝓌 𝐼𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉𝒾𝑜𝓃𝓈. I've been getting a slow start back into blogging after a nice long Christmas break. Mason is back in preschool so this mama has got to get back into a routine. I will say that I did get a new blog post up on Monday talking about my intentions for the New Year. Somewhat of a New Years Resolution. ⁣
⁣
Outside of that, I haven't really set any specific goals other than focusing on having a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐠𝐨𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫?
