Healthy Surprise Review & Giveaway

Sometimes it can be hard to eat healthy, especially when you are in the mood for a snack! Often even knowing what is and isn’t healthy can be a puzzle. You all know I love the idea of monthly boxes that allow me to sample things before I commit to bigger packages and I have  a wonderful subscription box for those of you who are looking for something healthy to munch on - Healthy Surprise.

This is a fantastic box filled with full sized products so you will really get the chance to decide if you like something! I tried the starter box which has 16-20 servings and was the perfect size for me and my husband. It is really one of the bigger monthly boxes I’ve seen. Inside we found:

Live Smart Flax Bar which was a delicious earthy and fruity snack. I love that it is vegan, wheat free and made with organic flax and oats!

Brothers All Natural Asian Pear Fruit Crisps which was so unique. I’ve never had freeze dried fruit before so it was a totally unexpected texture to me. This is a great way to keep fruit in the house and also fantastic for tossing into lunches. Best part to me was there was just one delicious ingredient 100% freeze dried Asian pear!

Alive & Radiant Foods Kale Crunch Cheezy Chipotle which was also very unique to me since I had never tried kale before. It was a crunchy snack with a lovely bit of spice to it as well. I love that it has organic ingredients and nothing mysterious.

Gopal’s Vegan Curry Power Wraps which was so delightfully different. My husband is a huge fan of curry so he was instantly drawn to this snack. Aside from the delicious flavor I love that a portion of the proceeds from this snack goes to cow protection.

O.N.E. Coconut Water which I had tried before and really loved. It is a great way to stay hydrated with natural benefits you won’t find in sports drinks and in my opinion it also tastes better.

Sprouties Cheesy flavored pumpkin seeds. I really like seeds and nuts of all kinds and these had a very nice flavor without adding any bad ingredients. In fact they only have three simple ingredients!

CocomoJoe Fig Joebar which was very tasty. I love that it is made with all organic ingredients! It has an unmistakable sweet coconut flavor with a nice amount of figs as well.

Peter Rabbit Organics Peach and Apple which is a lovely organic fruit snack with no filler ingredients. This went great in my oatmeal! I could see this making a great addition to lunches for all ages.

Skinny Crisps Toasty Onion crackers are on my list of things to track down now.  These tasty little crackers are delicious on their own and sturdy enough to handle the thickest of dip or spreads. They are low carb and gluten free too!

Fearless Organic Super Chocolate Midnight, which is chocolate like you've never had before. It has two organic ingredients, so all you get is pure deliciousness! And the missing bit is not only super cute but it reminds you that portion of the proceeds goes to good causes!

My absolute favorite was the Cherry Vanilla Dream Almonds from Olomomo Nut Co they are so sweet and decadent and guilt free. This is the tastiest guilt free snack I've ever tried! When the ingredients list dreams and love they are not kidding - you can taste it! They are so good I literately ate them slowly one at a time!

Now that you are hungry for something delicious and healthy head on over to Healthy Surprise and see which size box is right for you and your family. I'm excited by the idea of having healthier snacking options delivered right to my door!
