This post is sponsored by BabbleBoxx

It’s one of my favorite months of the year! Not only is it now officially Spring, but it’s also National Nutrition month! To celebrate, I’ve teamed up with my friends over at Babbleboxx to share some amazing, nutritious products, and there may even be a discount for you to enjoy along the way!

Coconut Secret Organic Coconut Aminos

If you are looking for a great soy and gluten free alternative to soy sauce without the MSG, I highly suggest giving Coconut Secret’s Organic Coconut Aminos a try! They have that great soy sauce-like taste with 72% less sodium. I love to use it as a 1:1 alternative for soy sauce in stir fries because it perfectly savory with a slightly sweet umami flavor. It’s also great for marinades, dips, or on its own!

Mighty Sesame Harissa Tahini

I’m a huge tahini fan, and Mighty Sesame’s Harissa Tahini is at the top of my list! Not only is it vegan, gluten free, kosher, and dairy free, but this tahini packs in the most delicious kick of roasted-chile pepper flavor. Iam obsessed with the convenient squeeze bottle. Just give it a shake and add it to your favorite dips, veggies, or meats. I personally love to use it as a salad dressing. It’s also packed with 7g of protein and 260mg of calcium per serving!

Minute Rice

Not only is Minute Rice super convenient (as the name says, it’s ready in a minute), it’s also super tasty and wholesome. It’s great for when you’re on the go or meal prepping, and sometimes I just like to whip up Minute Rice to go along with some leftover protein and veggies after a long day. I also love the variety of options. One day I can enjoy basmati and the next I can have the brown rice and quinoa, both of which are Non-GMO Project Verified, gluten free, vegan, and have no added preservatives. Plus, all of their cups are BPA-free and recyclable!

Nutiva Organic Classic Hazelnut Spread

Nutiva’s Organic Classic Hazelnut Spread has been a favorite of mine for years! It’s absolutely delicious and contains 40% less sugar than the leading brand. It’s also vegan, non-GMO, and rainforest and orangutan safe! I love to make little dessert tacos with the spread and fresh berries, and it’s also great on pancakes, waffles, and in a cozy bowl of oats. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it!

RECIPE 33

If you haven’t yet tried Recipe 33’s infused almonds, you are missing out! They’re truly brilliant - deliciously flavored almonds without the sticky, messy hands. RECIPE 33 developed a process to take real ingredients and infuse the flavor into each almond without the addition of any artificial additives or flavors. These almonds come in five delicious, unique flavors - black truffle, smoky serrano, garlic dill, lemon rosemary, and cinnamon vanilla. They’re perfect whether you’re enjoying them on the go, as part of a snack plate, or adding them to your favorite salad. You can use the code TryRECIPE33 here to get $2.00 off any 4oz bags.

When thinking about fitness, it’s generally the norm to just think about various exercises and ways of working out, but there are so many different pieces that go into a balanced fitness routine. From fueling and refueling the body to wearing the right gear, there are a number of crucial components to consider. That’s why I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite products that make all the difference in my fitness routine. So whether you’re looking for your next favorite supplement, a place to store your wedding ring while you work out, or even a way to tap into your spirituality and keep a sound mind before, during, and after a workout, I’ve got you covered.

One of the biggest parts of health and fitness for me is what I’m putting into my body to not only fuel my fitness routine but also my everyday life. That’s why I’m a huge fan of Ancient Nutrition. Their Multi Collagen Protein combines five types of collagen so that you don’t have to choose between bovine and marine collagen and can get the benefits of both. It supports a healthy gut, skin, hair, nails, and joints and all of the collagen is sourced from non-GMO, pasture-raised, cage-free, and cruelty-free sources. I also love their Zinc + Probiotics supplement to support a healthy immune defense and gut digestion.

When it’s time to suit up for my workout, the right leggings are absolutely key! I want them fitted but breathable, and I can’t stand when a legging rolls down mid-workout. That’s why I love these No nonsense Wide Waistband Sports Leggings. The fabric is lightweight with a built in stretch that moves with you. The wide waistband stays in place without rolling down for a nice, smooth look. You can use the code Sports25 for 25% off!

Another key piece in my fitness routine is the perfect snack bar. Whether I’m grabbing one to bring on a hike, or I’m fueling up before a spin class, a delicious snack bar with great ingredients is key. Queue the new Nature ValleyTM PackedTM sustained energy bars. Both the Peanut Butter & Cranberry and Almond Butter & Blueberry flavors are amazing, and these bars have the perfect balance of creamy, crunchy, and chewy textures. They’re really the ultimate snack bar and perfect for any occasion!

So now that you’re fueled and ready to go in your perfect workout outfit, you’re still missing one thing - a place to put that ring so it doesn’t keep getting in the way (or even worse fall off) during your workout. RingHero to the rescue! These adorable wrist bands are not only stylish, but they discretely store your rings or other jewelry while you get in that me time! RingHero protects your jewelry from sweat and damage while also keeping it within view right on your wrist. You can use the code BabbleBoxx10 for 10% off!

We’ve made it through our workout, and now it’s time to refuel with the most delicious, easy plant-based meal. That’s where Veestro comes in. They ship fully-prepared plant-based meals straight to your door, and all you have to do is heat them up and enjoy! It really doesn’t get any easier, especially after a nice, hard workout. You can use the code BABBLE25 for 25% any order through October 31, 2020.

One thing we don’t often think about in terms of health and fitness that truly plays such and important role is the mind and spirit. That’s why I love this Amenti Oracle and Feather Heart Deck and Guidebook. It’s a unique and fun way to tap into your spirituality and spark the imagination. It makes for a great gift or self-purchase for anyone who’s into divination or mystical, and it pairs great with tarot cards!

From the perfect workout gear to some of my favorite snacks, supplements, and meals, there really is so much that goes into a fitness routine outside of the actual workout. I hope you’ve enjoyed some of my fun finds! Let me know which you try and how you like them in the comments below.
