 My morning favorite! Starting my day with a latte, made with fresh brewed, hot coffee and new Coffee-Mate's Natural Bliss Sweet Cream I love coffee, but especially in the morning, I like take the “edge” off and use cream and sugar. If you use creamer too, have you thought about what’s in your creamer? I’ve found a great new product from Coffee-Mate called “Natural Bliss”. It’s a perfect name, because all the ingredients are natural (and pronounceable) and the taste generates bliss!
Come with me shopping for creamers and check out some of these ingredient labels. There are tons of choices, dry and liquid, when your looking for creamers. But the ingredient panels can be quite different. Check it out! Which ended up in my basket? One…
Two…
Three?
Four…
Five…
Six…
or Seven?
Easy Choice, Lucky Number Seven!
Coffee-Mate’s Natural Bliss is going into my cart! I love that it has only four ingredients and all of them are recognizable. I can even pronounce them! Nonfat Milk Heavy Cream Sugar Natural Flavors Yay! That sounds much better to me than “Dipottasium Phosphate” or “Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate” or “Polysorbate 60″. And because it is ultra-pasteurized, it has much longer freshness dates than milk.  Use by August 19th! Coffee-Mate Natural Bliss comes in three flavors, Sweet Cream (my favorite), Vanilla and Caramel.
I use all three flavors, not only in my coffee but also in recipes! Stay tuned to see my taste test of coffee, crepes, pancakes and waffles – all made with Coffee-Mate Natural Bliss! A recipe post is coming soon!
Now, I’m going to enjoy something natural…. Coffee-Mate Natural Bliss Creamer and my daughter watching some baby geese! If you want to join me, head to Walmart like I did, and here’s a coupon to save on your own Natural Bliss! Save $1.00 on the purchase of two creamers – redeem it at Walmart!

 The prize here at Kelly’s Lucky You is sponsored by the Midwest Dairy Council and it’s an awesome one!!
This fitness pack (valued at $100, shown above) provides you with all the essentials for your favorite outdoor activity, including an iTunes gift card, a Cuisinart hand blender for your post-workout smoothies, and Dairy Makes Sense wicking gear.
The Cuisinart Smart Stick Blender has a powerful 200 watts, easy one-touch control, a stainless steel blending shaft, and effortless (really!) cleanup. You can blend right in the pot, beaker or bowl. I’ve used mine in a plastic bowl, stainless bowl, glass measuring cup and stainless pot. I was amazed last Sunday how quick and easy it was to blend my pancake mix ingredients. My mom says she thinks the pancakes were fluffier too! You can use it in hot (soup) or cold (smoothies) recipes. And the cleanup? The bottom portion snaps right off and goes in the dishwasher. Did you know dairy is Sports Fuel?! Chocolate Milk is Nature’s Sports Drink! It has nine, yup, NINE essential nutrients! Carbohydrates for quick refuel. Potassium and magnesium, two key electrolytes lost in sweat. Protein to stimulate muscle growth and Vitamin B12 for energy! Calcium and Vitamin D strengthen bones and reduce stress fracture risks. Low-fat chocolate milk is a perfect post-workout beverage. Who knew, right?
I used dairy and my Cuisinart Smart Stick to make a Peanut Butter and Banana Breakfast Shake. Yummy! Here’s the recipe: Peanut Butter and Banana Breakfast Shake Ingredients: 1 cup of fat-free or 1% low-fat chocolate milk 1/2 cup frozen banana slices 1 tablespoon peanut butter 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon Preparation: Combine all ingredients in a blender; blend until smooth and creamy.
