Last year I tried the Dark Chocolate Pomegranate Flavored VitaBrownie and they soon became my favorite Vitalicious product, until now! Recently I got a chance to try the Dark Chocolate Pomegranate VitaTop and I like it even better! I mean they taste identical but the size and shape of the VitaTop is nicer, especially when you pull them out of the freezer. They defrost fast and (I can’t believe I’m going to admit this) even taste good frozen. That’s right, I’ve eaten them frozen and so has the toddler. ;~) They also have a better shape to top with a scoop of your favorite lite ice cream!
If you remember I announced a few months ago that I had a Vitalicious store front. Vitalicious and I have been talking about a few promotions and I’m really excited about our new relationship. We are working on a “Roni’s Favorites” sample pack, a contest and I got them to agree to a Roni’s Weigh promotion code! So if you plan on buying any Vitalicious products please use the code RonisWeigh, you’ll get 10% off and be supporting my sites at the same time! Vitalicious will also be launching a new blog soon and asked me to supply some videos! How cool is that? :~)
I’m super excited about this. Vitalicious and I have had an informal relationship for a while. They’ve sent me samples to try and even used some of my ideas in newsletters but this is more “official” and I feel like my blog is growing up in a way. Plus I really like their products! :~)

What's Cooking in my kitchen?

Finally my first Farro idea! I have to say, I love this stuff! It's chewy and yummy and, well, fun! I tossed it with what I could find in my pantry and it made a wonderfully satisfying lunch. Filling but not heavy, tasty and quite nutrient dense. According to NutritionData.com this [...] -
I've seen it mentioned in a few of my clean eating and healthy cook books but honestly, I never even thought of Farro as an option for me. I refuse to shop at specialty stores and I try to use only common products that I can keep in stock and purchase from a typical grocery [...] -
I've never had a tuna melt. Is that weird? I guess that's what happens when you grow up not liking mayonnaise. I never ate tuna salad or egg salad or chicken salad. Honestly, they always kind of grossed me out. Then I realized.. hey.. why does tuna salad have [...] -
I have no idea where this idea came from. I was hungry. It was lunch. I had Brussels Sprouts. That was all the catalyst I needed.:) I decided to use a slice of real bacon to add flavor and little fat that would help sauté the sprouts. I'm trying [...] -
WOW was this good. I mean seriously good. It's not vegetarian so don't start throwing stones. I'm calling it a Garden Vegetable Burger because I use the new Laughing Cow Smooth Sensations Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese Spread. It was this recipe on Allrecipes.com that inspired [...] -
I drink water 99.9% of the time but every so often it just doesn't cut it. I want something else. Something more. Something slightly sweet. Today was one of those days. I decided to make a refreshing drink based on the famous Arnold Palmer, half lemonade and half iced [...] -
The other day I made a whole chicken on the grill in pieces. It was delicious! Just a little BBQ sauce and an open flame is all I need to make The Husband happy in the dinner department. I also picked up a few ears of corn from the grocery store. They aren't in season [...] -
Let me explain so you don't think I'm making a chili recipe and just put it on pizza. I'm calling this vegetarian Chili Pizza because chili is what inspired flavors. I think I told you. Little Bean is really into, well, BEANS! We go through a can about every 2 days. Yesterday [...] -
I've confessed my inability to follow recipes here on GreenLiteBites many, many times. I don't know why it's so hard for me. I can barely follow some of my own and I wrote the darn things! I think most of my problem stems from not having all the ingredients listed and, [...] -
Leftover brown rice and leftover sauce meet in this quick lunch idea inspired by my favorite food of all time: Pizza. I swear I can turn anything into a pizza concoction. Have you seen all my pizza ideas? I've used everything from pumpkin to zucchini, polenta to wontons. Nothing is off [...] -
This isn't a recipe just an idea I had to share. I can't believe how good it was! I've never had grilled pineapple. Can you believe it? I just never really had the desire to grill it before. When you love something raw sometimes it doesn't occur to you to cook it. [...] -
I whipped this up for lunch on a whim today because, well, I have a baby who's obsessed with three things… Cheese, Beans, and Avocado. No, really. Look... It's my go to meal for him so I find myself with beans and avocado readily available. [...] -
You know that tradition 7 Layer Mexican Dip? The one with the cream cheese, guacamole, salsa, lettuce, cheese, green onion and olives? Yea. That's the one. Well I had a craving for it the other day. Well, not exactly for it as I can never make anything the way it's suppose [...] -
If you go through the archives of GreenLiteBites I have about 5 total beef recipes. Five. Compare that to the 80+ I have tagged with chicken/turkey there's a clear winner in the meat department on my blog and in my home. I don't have a beef with beef (omg The Husband [...] -
I'm a kitchen sink smoothie maker. Whatever I have on hand goes in the blender and viola! A quick breakfast or a healthy snack. Last year I posted an "Elastic Approach" to how I make smoothies but I still like to share specific combinations that worked really well. This was one [...] -
The other night it was just the kids and I home for dinner and I decided to make what I wanted to make no holds barred. Without The Husband home it's much easier for some reason. Hmmm wonder why? Ok, not here to husband bash.. really.. I'm not! I'm here [...] -
*sigh* I was really hoping to share an awesome turkey burger idea. I had grand plans for my leftover ground turkey. The results was alright but they could have been so much better. I added diced pineapple, red pepper, green pepper, oats and soy sauce to the meat and formed 2 patties. In hindsight I [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday having no idea if it would work. To my surprise it did AND the husband actually said he liked it... UNSOLICITED! Here's the story. I had only 4 tilapia fillets defrosted for dinner. I knew it wasn't going to be enough for us [...] -
This is a slight reboot of a recipe I posted last year simply called Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili. Staying true to my use-what-I-have-on-hand roots I, well, used what I had on hand and made a similar dish with a spicy twist. Topping the result with avocado added a cool creaminess that [...] -
Did you hear? The Laughing Cow recently launched Smooth Sensations a line of 5 cream cheese spreads. There's Classic Cream, Classic Cream Light, Strawberries & Cream, Garden Vegetable and my favorite… Cinnamon. It's a sweet wedge of creamy goodness! Today I decided to use my new favorite flavor [...] -
Confession time, I recorded a 30 minute video making this with both kids (partally) 2 nights ago. I miss videos. I really do but they seem so much more difficult with 2 children. I'm also having technical difficulties with my video recording and audio syncing making it VERY time consuming to edit. [...] -
A couple of years ago I shared a modified version of Sloppy Joe's I made for a party. Everyone loved it but I've been wanting to try to make something similar for the family on a smaller scale and without the pre-made canned Manwich sauce. I don't particularly have any issues [...] -
Yesterday I was dreaming about a salad. Not just any salad, but a chickpea filled, cucumber, and red onion salad with a fun, tangy dressing. Unfortunately, I had no cucumber or red onion. Well, that's a lie. I had a half of cucumber but it was a mushy mess and [...] -
Dinner meals are getting harder and harder for me to share lately. I've gone back to just whipping things up without really measuring anything (this meal was going to be one of those until I realized I still had enough light to take some photos.) I've also instituted a few brainless meal nights [...] -
Three years ago I posted a video called "Makin' Hard Boiled Eggs" where I shared my system for, well... making hard boiled eggs. Genius name, I know. I'm smart like that. Anyway, since then I've gotten tons of feedback and comments thanking me but all the information is locked in a long winded 10 minute [...]

That ROCKS!!!
Ha! Funny, I just made myself a cup of coffee and nuked a blueberry vitatop before sitting down to catch up on my blog reading. Good stuff : )
that is so cool! Haven’t tried any of their products but plan on checking them out.
that is awesome!! i’ve always wanted to try the corn bread vitatop…but they never have it in the stores. i may have to make a purchase sometime~
Congrats that is very exciting!
i LOVE titatops and THANKS roni for the coupon code. your 10% code is better than the 5% codes that come directly in the vitalicious emails!!
i ordered the cornbread vitatops and they are a new fave in addition to the choco and bran. i take the cornbread vitatop, nuke it for 25 secs and add 1/4c. chili and a sprinke of WW cheese! this is a yummy chili/cheese/cornbread comfort food dish for me! all for THREE points!!
That’s so exciting!
I have to say, I love vitamuffins and vitatops! I really love the fact that you can buy the mixes online because it’s such an affordable option!! I buy them in the 6-mix boxes because they often have sale promotions on those and the shipping is no different than if you buy one box. Gotta love vitalicious!!!
oh thanks for the cornbread vitatop review annabanana!
Hey Roni,
I found you page from Leigh Peele’s blog. I really like your site. I love Vita Muffins! I have not seen these yet. My favorite is the Chocolate Chip ones in the box that you make yourself. I am definitely going to try these.
I love vitamuffis! I buy the chocolate mixes and make my own. I have one every night with a WW Giant Fudge Bar cut up on top of it. What a great treat for 2 points!
Oh – and I have had the chocolate pomegranite brownies – they are to die for!
I’ve been sort of “lurking” around a few weight loss blogs in the past few months as I embarked on what I hope will be my last weight loss journey. I found a link to website on another page and I am just as impressed as I am inspired by your site. I still feel a bit funny sending you or any blogger a comment, but I had to finally write and thank you. Your words echo many of my thoughts and it’s just nice to know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I can do this.
Now off to check out the VitaTops! I had heard of the company but never tried anything. Any ideas for sweet tooth cravings are much appreciated.
Thanks again and congratulations on your collaboration with Vitalicious.
Hi Roni,
Is your code/discount available for use in Canada? I order from Vita online, but it’s the Canadian “store”. Just wondering if it’s inter-changeable? I’d love to support your site when I order!
Krista
Congrats! That is so awesome. Pretty soon everyone will be recognizing you. Maybe I should have asked for your autograph. You could have signed my baby! hahaha I’ll have to remember that next time we bump into each other. :)
Hi, I am Roni’s friend from Vitalicious. I thought it would be easier for me to answer some of your questions directly and save Roni from being the “middle-man”. First off, I just want you to know that I also eat VitaTops frozen especially the chocolate flavors- they kind of remind me of the chocolate cake part of the ice cream sandwich.
Most stores are carrying the Golden Corn VitaTops or VitaMuffins & I believe they will eventually be in all stores very soon. Also, the website offers flavors that are not available in the stores.
The mixes are a better bargain because they are approx. 50% the cost per muffin, shipping is less expensive (unless you add frozen items to your order) and they taste better fresh-baked (my opinion- don’t tell the owner).
We can extend the coupon for Canada for 5% off. Pricing is different on that site.
thanks for the discount. I just ordered some and had then sent to my mom so that she can send them to me overseas. I cannot wait until they get here. I am excited. I just hope they are still okay to eat after being in the mail for a week…grr…
Christy, tell your mom that they must be frozen when they arrive & should be shipped frozen. They should NOT be in transit for more than 3 days. She’ll need to explore some rush shipping options. You should also freeze them upon arrival to you. Our product is designed to be re-frozen without any loss of integrity to it. Hope this helps.
