Wildtree Review and Giveaway[Closed]

Wildtree offers the highest quality herbs, spices and culinary blends that are free of preservatives, additives, fillers and promote a healthier lifestyle.
Amanda P. with Wildtree graciously offered to sponsor a review and giveaway.
She sent me their Scampi Blend, and Brownie Mix to review, and is also offering the same gift to one of our readers. Amanda is a stay at home mommy to five kids. She enjoys hosting parties and selling the Wildtree products.

  I personally am not the "best" cook, but I do try my best to always offer my family healthy meals and snacks. Sometimes we get bored of the "same old things." Wildtree offers an amazing assortment of products that are not only easy to prepare but healthier than most processed food choices. I began my review with the Scampi Blend. I went to the grocery store and purchased shrimp, pasta, and oil. The Scampi Blend had everything else already in it! It took me literally 10min. to prep and cook the shrimp. In fact the pasta was the part that took the longest. I started the pasta before the shrimp like the directions on the Scampi Blend suggested. This was by far one of the best Shrimp dishes I have ever had/made.
Here is how it's done! Scampi with Linguine.
Following the directions on the jar of Scampi Blend is sooo easy!!!!!
Boil some water, add salt.

Cook the noodles! save 1/4c. of pasta water for sauce!

Here is the Shrimp and the Scampi Blend.

Add the oil to the cold pan.

Add the blend to the oil in the cold pan.

Add the shrimp to the oil and blend in the cold pan. Stir to coat.

Cook on medium till pink :)

Remove shrimp from the pan, add more oil and more blend.

Toss in the pasta and shrimp

Enjoy!!!



The family loved it so much that we made another batch the very next night!
The Brownies were just as easy(trust me I DON'T bake well)!!! Here's how they went!
Pre-Heat 325
Mix up the eggs milk and butter or oil.

Add the Brownie Mix

Put it in the greased pan!

I added walnuts.

Bake 45 min (estimated)

Yummy!!!
Both of these products were so easy to make. I could not believe how delicious they both turned out! I am  used to "easy" food being really bad for you but in this case I was comfortable knowing that the natural ingredients in the Wildtree foods were better for my family!

The Wildtree Story
"Until the mid 90’s, Leslie Montie never dreamed she would become the founder of a company that helps families from coast to coast enjoy great tasting and nutritious meals that can be prepared in minutes.  When Leslie discovered that her two young children had medical conditions requiring special dietary restrictions, she began her search for healthy alternatives.  “It was amazing how this impacted our entire family.” recalls Leslie.  I needed to come up with meals that my children would not react to, yet still enjoy.  And since I was a full-time working mom, they had to be easy to make.”
