A Creamy Greek Pita Sandwich with Summer Fresh Tzatziki Dip Makes a Delicious School Lunch

August 24, 2016 by Kathryn 20 Comments

Preparing for a new school year means preparing ideas for school lunches that are quick to pack, healthy and tasty enough that my boys will actually eat them! I have a few tried-and-true favourites, but I’m always trying out fun new recipes too. And when I want to add extra flavour to any of my creations, I turn to Summer Fresh!

Summer Fresh hummus, dips and salads are delicious, nutritious and made with fresh, wholesome ingredients that my whole family loves. To be honest, my favourite way to use Summer Fresh products is to just cut up a big plate of fresh vegetables, open up a container of my favourite Avocado Hummus or Three Cheese Dip and dig in! But I do like using the products in other ways too. And this tasty Creamy Greek Chicken Pita is the perfect example of how Summer Fresh can make fall lunches easy and delicious! With only six ingredients and minimal time, I was able to whip up a sandwich the whole family loved!

Going Back to School is Better with a Mexican Breakfast Pizza Recipe

August 6, 2015 by Kathryn 170 Comments

The school year is fast approaching and I’m already starting to plan out some easy and delicious meals for the busy school season. While I tend to stick to fairly basic sandwiches and snacks for the most part, I like having some fun and creative meal ideas at the ready as well.

And that’s especially true for breakfast! Even though my boys love their cereal, they also love heartier options in the morning and since breakfast is the most important meal of the day, I want to make sure that they head out the door feeling satisfied.

This year, Ozery’s Pita Break is helping with that thanks to its extensive variety of delicious and healthy Morning Rounds and OneBun products. I recently received a variety of products to create a tasty back-to-school recipe, so I decided to combine a few kid-friendly favourites into one quick and easy breakfast idea: a Mexican Breakfast Pizza recipe!

May 22, 2015 by Kathryn 162 Comments

I am a huge fan of barbequing and once the weather is warm enough to eat outside, I’ll sometimes use the barbeque all week long. From chicken and steak to hot dogs and hamburgers, it’s a sure-to-please meal if it’s been on the grill!

But I’m not a fan of the big, doughy hamburger and hot dog buns and their high calorie count, so that’s why this year I’ve fallen in love with Ozery’s Pita Break! The company’s OneBun® flatbread buns are a lighter alternative to traditional buns and are free of artificial colours, flavours, additives and preservatives. To help you have an extra delicious barbeque season, Ozery’s Pita Break has ten great barbeque tips you’ll want to check out before you hit the grill!

Give Your Kids a Quick and Healthy Lunch with the Extreme Pita Kids Menu-Giveaway

October 29, 2013 by Kathryn 168 Comments

My boys can be picky eaters, so finding tasty, healthy food that they will actually eat is a never-ending challenge in our household. And when we’re out and about, keeping our meals healthy is even more difficult! The kids may be happy with hamburgers, fries and soda, but I can’t help but want them to have something more nutritious. So when Extreme Pita gave me the chance to review its fresh and healthy Kids Menu, I couldn’t resist. I had been wanting to try Extreme Pita for quite some time and I had high hopes that the company’s veggie-packed, freshly-made pitas would be something my boys enjoyed too.

Extreme Pita is passionate about creating healthy food that tastes great, something I noticed as soon as I walked into the restaurant. Fresh vegetables are abundant and for hot pitas, veggies are sautéed in water instead of oil to keep the fat minimal. Best of all, a variety of the pitas both on the regular menu and the Kids Menu have earned the Heart and Stroke Foundation’s Health Check Symbol! [Read more…]
