I am currently obsessed with the Ezekiel english muffins I bought this week! My very first Ezekiel english muffin is documented in this post when I made a sandwich with it. They are dense and chewy and taste like homemade bread to me.
I love them so much that this morning when I woke up, I was craving an english muffin more than my usual bowl of oats! This is really saying something as I have become slightly addicted to my oatmeal breakfast.
So for breakfast this morning, I made an toasted Ezekiel english muffin with almond butter, a banana, and cinnamon!
Another new food discovery I made recently is a tangelo. My roommate found them a Costco 
. A tangelo is a mix between a tangerine and a grapefruit. I don’t think I’ve ever tried a tangerine, but I’ve never really liked oranges that much (I know, I’m weird…) or grapefruits. However, I love these tangelos! Especially with cinnamon
I told one of my nutrition class friends today about my tangelo discovery, and she said that she eats them all the time! I had never heard of them until a few days ago! Has anyone else ever heard of tangelos and/or tried them before?
My tangelo loving friend thought that my addition of cinnamon was pretty weird. I do like cinnamon more than normal people, but I don’t think cinnamon + orange/tangelo/tangerine etc. is too weird of a flavor combo. In fact, when I was studying in Austria, all the bars served tequila shots with cinnamon and orange instead of salt and lime! Anyway, I highly recommend adding cinnamon to ANY fruit
Trying new foods is so much fun, and I am a reformed picky eater, so I think there is still a lot out there for me to try .
Have any of you made any recent and exciting food discoveries??
what an awesome idea! i LOVE cinnamon on anything and EVERYTHING
Enjoy your new discovery!
Okay, I’m a cinnamon freak but tequila + cinnamon?! I don’t know about that
Glad you’re liking the new food finds!!
New food finds: kumquats! I saw them at wholefoods the other day and couldn’t resist buying them. To me, they taste just like candy. Tart at first, then really sweet. Too bad they’re so expensive. I’ll just have to conserve them for special occasions. ha…;)
Your discovery looks a lot like my most recent breakfast obsession: whole grain toast with peanut butter, honey, and banana. I actually toyed with the idea of putting cinnamon on it last week but didn’t. Maybe I will try it tomorrow! Must see where I can get my hands on those Ezekiel muffins.
Ezekiel EMs ARE awesome. I tried them once. I savoured them. They’re pricy though. Sigh. I might need to get some again soon though, I’m nearly out of my bag of generics and it’s been awhile since I had the Ezekiel good stuff!
Tequila shots with cinnamon and orange? No way! That is SO cool!
I honestly don’t know if I’ve ever tried a tangelo! For some reason I feel like I have but I don’t know for sure. I feel like through the food blog world though I’m making new food discoveries ALL the time. I LOVE it! I used to be picky when I was younger but now I try (and usually like) almost anything! Within reason of course haha
The Ezekiel looks SO good! I need to pick some up
Actually, no
. But I have a list! And when I get home I’m literally going all out… can’t wait!
I just tried Ezekiel bread the other day and I’m in love! I’ve never had a tangelo, but I love tangerines and grapefruits so I would think I would love tangelos! And cinnamon… makes everything so much more yummy!
And I actually just tried adding egg whites to oatmeal after seeing it on another blog.. you really can’t taste the egg whites AT ALL, but it does add a LOT of extra protein! I think that’s my most recent food discovery! Have a great weekend!!
I like tangelos, but I prefer tangerines. I’ve actually just been eating plain old navel oranges almost every day for a few months. I am a cinnamon addict too, I have like 4 different kinds in my spice drawer!
I love tangelos! My grandpa used to grow them in his grove in CA, and we’d eat them off the trees. I’ve never tried cinnamon with one, though..what a tasty combo!
You can’t go wrong with the Food for Life products… I have yet to find one that I don’t love!
As far as recent food discoveries, I’m LOVING dates right now, although it’s not the first time I’ve had them. I guess I just forgot how good they are!
I really like cinnamon too–esp. with apples! I am glad you’re enjoying those muffins-YUM! Have a great day!

Ezekial english muffins are the best! I love them toasted with almond butter, banana, cinnamon, and a drizzle of honey. I love cinnamon with my fruit too, especially pineapple. I always mix my yogurts with some pineapple chunks, cinnamon, and flax seed. I highly recommend it. Enjoy your week!
The English Muffins are my favorite, but the hamburger buns and trotillas are great too!
