August Newsletter- Down Time!



 Did Someone say Down Time?

It’s almost the end of the summer!  We’re super busy at NibMor getting ready to unleash our NEW full sized bars in September.  It’s been a ton of work but we’re sure you are going to be so happy with the results.  You’ll be the first to know when they hit store shelves.

Check out what we’ve been up to on NibMorTV. We’ve also included a list of things you can do to unwind before the summer’s out. Get out there and enjoy yourselves!

Brain Food for Nibblers!


Staying Cool with your Girl Heather!

We are in the dog days of summer Nibblers!  As much as I dread going out into the heat, I love how many fruits and veggies you can get at this time of the year- and LOCAL at that!  Nothing is better than purchasing a bunch of veg that looks great- cooking it up and viola!  You’ve got a summer hit!  Here’s a recipe I threw together last week.  Quinoa is great vehicle for summer salads so just mix it up and go for it!  Stay cool! 



Quinoa summer salad:

1 cup of cooked quinoa
1 orange bell pepper, diced
2 ears of corn cut from the cob (boil for 5 minutes and then blanch the corn before cutting it from the cob)
1 onion, diced
1/2 pint cherry tomatoes
1 small zucchini, diced
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
Feta cheese (optional)
Nutritional Yeast
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp olive oil

In a large sauce pan heat olive oil.  Add the onion, sautee for 1-2 minutes.  Add zucchini, salt and pepper, cook for 2 minutes.  Add bell pepper and tomatoes, cook for one more minute.  In a large serving bowl  combine all ingredients and stir well.  Divide into 4 bowls and sprinkle with feta cheese or nutritional yeast- or both!  Enjoy!

School is Back!

School is Back!

 Summer may be over but school starting means smart lunching and snacking... Right? 

Check out what Lauren came up with, it's mouth watering and delicious! Enjoy Nibblers!

"I came up with a delicious and simple snack!  Here at NibMor we love our palm sugar (a low glycemic natural sweetener!).  We use Palm Sugar in our delicious Drinking Chocolate.  As I was packing up my lunch this morning to bring into the office I put my watermelon into my bag.  I thought to myself how can I make my watermelon taste better then it already does.  I then saw my ground flax seed and palm sugar and thought about mixing the two up!  So now its about lunch time and I am getting hungry.  I pulled out my watermelon and my flax-seed with palm sugar mixture.  I them proceed to dip my watermelon into the flax-seed mixture and it is very tasty!  This is my new favorite healthy treat and I wanted to share it with everyone!  You can put this mixture into your yogurt or on top of any other fruit you enjoy!  Have a great week!"
