Check out our Cherry Almond Hemp GRANUESLI in the February 2019 edition of Bon Appétit !
The February edition of Bon Appétit magazine which hit newsstands January 18, 2019 is the annual Healthyish edition. This years publication focused on twenty-one people who are all changing the way we eat, shop, and live today. One of the twenty-one people chosen was Jessica Young, the founder of BUBBLE GOODS, an online health food paradise that we partnered with since it launched in 2018. The Bon Appétit team dubbed Young as the “Healthy Snack Oracle” and we couldn’t agree more.
We’re honored to have our GRANUESLI included in this selection of healthy snacks and in Bon Appétit Magazine and to also have our GARDEN GRANOLA® featured in a larger roundup of nine snacks that can be viewed online Healthyish, a Bon Appéit Brand’s website, available here and pictured below.
We are beyond grateful for our partnership with BUBBLE and all they have done to support our brand and all the other amazing brands that make up the health food paradise that is BUBBLE.
Garden Granola and our Cherry Almond Hemp Granuesli can be seen in the back row with six other snacks all picked by Jessica Young in collaboration with Bon Appé

When we saw this gorgeous pink soup on Instagram featuring our favorite veggie, beetroot, we just had to reach out to its creator Kimberly Espinel and ask if we could share it with our followers! She very graciously said yes thanked us for asking.
2 - 2 ½ cup potatoes, roughly diced
2 large white onions, finely chopped
3 cups of vegetable stock
1 cup Whole Mylk
3 - 4 tbsp white wine
1 ½ tbsp almond butter
3 - 4 tbsp olive oil
Pinch of salt
1 small beetroot, peeled and diced
Optional garnish: Black sesame seeds, ground black pepper, olive oil, beetroot leaves or other
1. Add water to saucepan and boil potatoes with a pinch of salt until soft. Then drain and set aside.
2. In a frying pan over a medium flame, heat the olive oil and sauté the onions until soft and translucent, for around 10 minutes.
3. Place the boiled potatoes, sautédd onions and all other ingredients in a large pot and bring to the boil.
4. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes.
