A Protein-Packed {P28 Giveaway}

I hope you had a lovely and relaxing weekend leading up to this holiday week!  Welcome back to the next 3 MONTHS of Monday giveaways on the blog!  If you missed last week, Jennifer C won some Lemon Coconut awesomeness in the form of The Simply Bar.  This week I am excited to introduce to you a new line of high protein breads made by P28.  They are named that because each bagel, 2 slices of bread, and wrap have 28g of protein in them!!  This compares to the amount of protein in a chicken breast, or piece of salmon...but IN A BREAD.

See for yourself:

A few more highlights:

  • 100% Natural
  • 100% Whole Wheat - Made with Oat, Flax Seed, Sunflower Seed, and Millet
  • Made with 100% Whey Isolate - The highest quality source of protein
  • A rich source of 8 essential Amino Acids that your body needs for growth, energy, and vibrant health
  • Cholesterol Free
  • A Good source of Fiber
  • Contains Omega 3's
  • Excellent for people who are trying to build muscle and/or lose body fat.

This arrived at my doorstep (thank you P28!), and the tasting/creating began.

The Good, The Bad, and the Outta-this-World:

The bread is good.  It has a similar look/feel/taste to "normal" bread, but with a slight chewiness that takes some getting used to.  I decided after multiple sandwiches, a few pieces of toast, and a grilled cheese that I prefer the bread toasted.  And if it's not toasted, I cut the crust off like a picky toddler :)

You'll have to wait 'til tomorrow for the recipe for this Lemon Blackberry Grilled Cheese (I know...I'm such a tease!). But, it was perfect on 2 slices of P28 high-protein bread.

The bagels were bad.  At least the ones I received.  (Maybe I got a bad batch?!)  Sorry P28 peeps, just being honest...this blogger girl did not like them.  They were chewy and tough and dry. Not how I like to get my protein, or anything for that matter.  I tried to make another one this morning to see if I could improve my review/description. Nope.  They went in the trash.

But, they sure did make up for it with what I'm about to show you next.

The wraps are outta-this-world!!  This is a new product for them, which will be available for sale in about 2 weeks.  They sure did find a winner!! They are similar to a chalupa bread... just the right thickness, nice flavor, and soooooo versatile.  I had one with scrambled eggs, bacon, and cheese.  One with peanut butter and fresh strawberries (which happens to be one of my 7 low-sugar tips, in case you missed them). One pan-fried as a quesadilla.  And one with hummus, turkey, and red peppers.  YUM!!  This is a great (delicious) way to get in some extra protein!

They're fairly large, so after I rolled this one up, I cut off a bit of the excess to save a few extra calories.

So now for the giveaway!
