Promising review: "I love this ridiculous thing! I don't have a stove/oven due to gas hookups, and I'm on oxygen 24/7. I use an air fryer, Instant Pot, slow cooker and microwave to cook. Microwave eggs usually leave a lot to be desired. For some reason though, omelets turn out very well when using this. All in all, it's a fantastic addition to simplify breakfast. Would be perfect for dorms or efficiencies." —Kiwi B.

Not only is each serving packed with 23 g of protein and 8 g of fiber, but the flavor is still incredibly delicious. I actually prefer this to regular pasta because there's just that extra bit of depth to the flavor! This six pack comes with two boxes each of penne, rotini, and shells.
Promising review: "This pasta is so freaking good. Came across it at Target. I am not gluten intolerant, I just like trying new things. This pasta is great, I made a pasta salad with it. The taste and even texture isn't far off from regular pasta. I didn't tell my husband what it was and waited to tell him that it wasn't regular pasta and he said he couldn't tell other than a slight texture difference." —Aurora

Promising review: "Only protein bar brand I buy!! I have a gluten allergy and lactose intolerant so it’s hard to find a GF DF protein bar WITH 20g OF PROTEIN or more...literally impossible. What I love best about No Cow is that the ingredients are pretty good! No stomach ache and is a great quick snack. I also recommend the mint, birthday cake, PB crunch and my fave the PB chocolate. All are amazing, def recommend!!" —Taylor Fox

These impressive power cakes comes in three scrumptious flavors: buttermilk, almond poppyseed, and chocolate chip. Plus, you can always experiment with your own variations, too!
Promising review: "Oh, my goodness, this stuff is the BEST. High protein, mixes easily and great whole wheat taste without being too wheat-y. A suggestion on the box is to make this with milk instead of water and add one egg. This produces the best overall pancake in my opinion. I'm sold. I need no other pancake mix after this." —David Eck
Get it from Amazon for $16.50+ (available in three or six packs, and three flavors).
Promising review: "We have a larger ninja blender prior to purchasing this, but it was such a hassle to clean when you wanted a single serving smoothie. This is the perfect size for single use shakes and smoothies. Cleans easy, blend ice and other hard things easily, and it's much easier to store than a larger blender obviously. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to blend things and drink them right away or take it in the car." —Shaun

Promising review: "Alright folks, I may be a little biased here as I LOVE their protein bars, but this is by far my FAVORITE vegan powder. It’s got a great taste, but it’s the thickness and consistency for me (i mixed with almond milk). It legit has the taste and feel of a chocolate milkshake. It’s not as 'thin' as other drinks." —Jake McGreevy

Once you start making this fluffy, protein-packed rice, you'll never go back! There's even five flavors, so you can get creative with your dishes: original, cilantro lime, garlic herb, lemon pepper, and Spanish.
Promising review: "I LOVE starchy carbs – pasta, bread, you name it. But rice is my real kryptonite, and I had given it up because of its low nutritional value. That's until I discovered RightRice. OH MY IS THIS STUFF TASTY!!!! I actually prefer it to the taste of regular rice because it has an added freshness that comes from the high vegetable content. It's really a game-changing, life-changing food for me.
I eat it every day for lunch and dinner – there's enough variety in flavors to always keep things interested." —Matt Sack

Promising review: "For a long time I was making homemade burgers by hand. Attempting to shape uniformly and getting it all to hold together well was a bit frustrating, but always a good meal. I finally decided to get one of these patty makers, and I must say I am very happy I did. This product is great! The instructions are easy to understand, there are multiple sizes and it works great. If you are tired of struggling with making patties by hand, or you have a patty maker that just doesn't work well, then I strongly recommend giving this thing a try, it's great!" —Rick

Promising review: "I have been using this once a day for weeks to help with weight and muscle gain. I use it as either a quick meal or as a supplement on a lower calorie day. It tastes great but is much better cold. I love the fact that it has 20 grams of protein and tastes nothing like the typical protein shake." —Jessica T.

Promising review: "Set it and forget it. I've been a vegan for 13 years, and I can't believe I went this long without a tofu press. So much more enjoyable cooking with tofu after pressing it. This press is different than all the rest, as it has a tray that catches all the water. You can put the whole thing in the fridge, and it's hassle free. Take it out the next day and drain the liquid and you're good to go. The other presses require a plate underneath and some require tightening and adjustments as it presses." —Conner

Promising review: "For a QUICK INEXPENSIVE PROTEIN-PACKED MEAL, I mix one of these packets with the KRAFT WHITE CHEDDAR BOWLS. REALLY FAST and EASY and helps me get more protein in my day (while also TASTING GREAT)! If you work in an office and don't have much time or money, keeping these packets and Kraft bowls in your desk will save you bucks, time and better than vending machine fare." —pleinelune
Promising review: "Very happy with my purchase. Really enjoying this recipe book. Everything I've made so far has been really tasty. The recipes are simple, healthy, and inexpensive to make. There's also a lot of recipes in the book so that's great too." —Spencer Y.

Promising review: "My GO-TO snack! Love this product! Let's start with the texture. It's like an airy chip that is absolutely satisfying my needs for something crunchy. The seasoning is like a party in your mouth! This by far is my favorite flavor. And love to pair it with sour cream or use it for "tacos on a bag" if you haven't tried it you must!!" —WalmartCustomer
