So Delicious 7 Ways in 7 Days Giveaway-Now CLOSED**

by Nicole on February 23, 2011

This is a compensated review from BlogHer and So Delicious®.

I was compensated for this review, but all the opinions reflected on this blog are my own. You know how honest I am about EVERYTHING on this blog! Read my race recaps, and you will find that out if you haven’t noticed already.

As you all know, I try to stay away from dairy most of the time since it does a number on my stomach. I’m always trying to figure out how to make my meals sans dairy.

The hubs and I are big proponents of non-GMOs. We try to buy the least amount of genetically modified foods as possible, and that can be very difficult sometimes.

I’m also gluten intolerant. I sound high maintenance, don’t I? haha. I am. I admit it.

You can imagine that I was quite delighted when I was chosen to be part of the So Delicious Program through Blogher. Visit their Official site! I don’t promote things on my blog very often unless I believe in the product AND it fits my lifestyle.

As part of their program, I was sent a coupon for a free half gallon of their coconut milk and an 8-pack of their vanilla milk singles.

This is their product information:

Life should be a delicious adventure. So at So Delicious ® Dairy Free, we’re committed to making dairy-free natural foods that celebrate great taste.

Like our So Delicious Coconut Milk. Smooth and creamy, with a light, refreshing taste, it’s rich in MCFAs. Medium-chain fatty acids are a good fat and provide the energy you need to live life to the fullest.

Dairy-Free
Soy-Free
Cholesterol-Free
Gluten-Free
Made from Organic Coconut
Kosher
Vegan
Certified Non-Gmo
Naturally Energizing
Tastes Just Like Milk—Only Better!

That is a long list of good things especially for people with “high maintenance” intolerances and/or preferences. And what other dairy-free milk can you say all those things about?? Keep reading, this giveaway is GOOD!!

So, for the past week, I have been trying out the So Delicious Coconut Milk in different ways. So far I have:

1.Poured it in my cereal (less slimy than my normal almond milk)

2. Combined the Vanilla coconut milk and a scoop of my protein powder as a post workout recovery drink

3. Made my oatmeal with it!! Really creamy, and when I topped it with coconut butter I felt like I was off in the Caribbean somewhere rather than in 20 degree weather in Spokane.

4. Substituted the milk that was called for my peanut butter chocolate chip cookies for the So Delicious Coconut Milk. I could not tell the difference, and they tasted great like they always do. I paired them with a glass of the coconut milk as well. Great for cookie dipping!

5. Hot Chocolate!!!!! My husband, a long time organic whole “cow” milk drinker, drank some too, and he ACTUALLY LIKED it!! Victory!

6. Combined 1 Vanilla Coconut Milk Single and 1 cup of regular coconut milk with 2 cups of mixed frozen berries and 1 scoop of protein powder in the blender for my post “butt kicking” track workout recovery drink / dinner. It was late. I was tired. A shake was easy, and the good fats from the Coconut Milk and the protein I added filled me up. And it actually tasted good. That’s always a plus.

7. Added a splash to my Chai Tea the other day with my afternoon snack. It added just enough creaminess to the tea without making me heavy after drinking it.
