Tropical Traditions Whole Golden Flax Seed Review & Giveaway {US & Canada}

Well, I am sad to say that I didn't win the weight loss competition against my family. :( The bride-to-be actually won and I am really really happy for her! She is marrying my brother on Friday and we couldn't be happier for them. I am happy to report that I did come in third out of everyone that participated, which is really cool. :) During my weight loss journey, which I am still on, I enjoyed eating salad alot and it has become a staple for my lunches. Salad is such an amazing food...filling, healthy and so many ways to dress it up! It also helps with digestion and the fiber found in lettuces and spinach is wonderful. Along with eating salads, I have found some really yummy toppings that just make the salad even more tastier! Today, I am going to share a review of Tropical Traditions Whole Golden Flaxseed and how I used it to spruce up my salads.
Tropical Traditions has been a long-time favorite of mine and they are best known for their amazing Coconut Oil. I never realized what I could do with Coconut Oil until I met Tropical Traditions. If you (like I was) are wondering about how to use coconut oil, then you should really check out what Tropical Traditions suggests. I never knew I could use it in so many different recipes, candies and beverages. Check out this video on the many uses of coconut oil...
 Ok, so I totally want to try and make the fudge. Doesn't it look amazing?!? Oh, and I had never thought to add coconut oil to my coffee...what an interesting idea.
For this review I was sent a pouch of Tropical Traditions Whole Golden Flax Seed. Back when I was on a vegan diet I used flax seed daily as a fiber and fatty acid addition to my smoothies. It didn't have a whole lot of flavor but added some much-needed nutrition to my diet. This Flax Seed comes in a one pound pouch and it is definitely a good amount of seeds! In case you aren't familiar, here is a bit more information about golden flax seed...

Flax (Linum usitatissimum) is a beautiful blue flowered plant grown on the plains of Central Canada and the North Central United States. Our organic flaxseed is "golden flaxseed" from North Dakota. Modern research has taken great interest in flaxseed. Study after study confirms that the oil and fiber components of flaxseed have wonderful health benefits. A valuable source of Fiber, Essential Fatty Acids and Lignans.

The flax seed I used when on my vegan diet was brown so seeing it a golden color was different! I like it though...it kind of reminds me of sesame seeds.
This came just in time for my lunch and so I fixed my salad as usual. Adding the Golden Flax Seed really added nice color and flavor to my salad. Combined with my other ingredients, this flax seed is now a regular addition to my daily salad. It is nice to know that something so tiny can provide such wonderful nutrition for me. I also love to add Whole Golden Flax Seeds to my fruit smoothies, casseroles and yogurt. Oh, and this is also a WONDERFUL way to add a bit of extra nutrition to your children's foods as well. I sneak it into my youngest son's yogurt and he doesn't even notice. :)

A one pound pouch of Tropical Traditions Whole Golden Flax Seed retails for $10.30 and can be ordered in one bag or multiple bag quantities.
Tropical Traditions has offered to giveaway a pouch of their Whole Golden Flax Seed to one of you! Here are your entry options...

Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil Giveaway! {US & Canada}

I have been a fan of Tropical Traditions since I began doing reviews. Prior to doing reviews, I had never heard of them and was so thrilled to become aware of them and their wonderful products! Probably their most popular product is their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil and I know exactly why this is. It is full of flavor and tastes absolutely wonderful when added to recipes or just used alone. My favorite way to use this oil is when I am cooking pancakes. It adds a wonderful taste to my pancakes and my family LOVES them! Once my mom found out about Tropical Traditions, she has been a dedicated customer and raves about the coconut oil. She uses it in everything and also has been able to get my father to use it regularly too. He is a diabetic and has found that it is very tasty in many foods that he eats.

Win 1 quart of Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil!

Tropical Traditions is America’s source for coconut oil. Their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil is hand crafted in small batches by family producers, and it is the highest quality coconut oil they offer.

Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil Giveaway {US & Canada}

 
As you all know I am a huge fan of Tropical Traditions. I regularly use their products for my beauty routine, cooking, cleaning and baking. The first time I became acquainted with this company was 2 years ago when I started to do reviews. I was sent a quart of their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil and fell in love as soon as I tried it. The main thing that I use my Coconut Oil for is making pancakes. Oooo, the flavor it adds to my pancakes is just amazing, not to mention how much better it is for you then regular cooking oil or butter.
 
If you are unfamiliar with Tropical Traditions, here is a short 3 minute video that will introduce you to this company and the journey that they took to give us Virgin Coconut Oil...



As you can see, there is alot of effort put into making and keeping this product a high-quality one and one that is organic.

My mom has recently discovered Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil and she LOVES it. She talks about it constantly, sends emails to her friends about it and has been including it in her and my father's daily diet. I had told her about it before but for some reason, she never seemed interested. Then, when my father was diagnosed with diabetes she started trying to cook more carefully for him and that is how she discovered the Coconut Oil. Now, she uses it daily.
 You can buy coconut oil from Tropical Traditions directly and they do offer several varieties as well.

Tropical Traditions would love to give away a quart of this amazing Coconut Oil to one of you! Here are your entry options for this giveaway...
