Are you done with your holiday shopping? I’m not, but I’m doing pretty good. I took a trip to Whole Foods this weekend and was surprised at how many great gifts there were. I wanted to share them with you in case you need to pick up a few more too.
Parducci Sustainable White (or Red) – Whole Foods listed Parducci’s Sustainable White wine on their Top 10 Wine list this year. Its made at the first carbon-neutral winery in the U.S., and the bottle is cute too. Plus, it only costs $10. Can’t beat it!
Pancake Breakfast Basket - Pick up a bag of Arrowhead Mills’ Oat Bran or Multigrain pancake mix and fill a basket with pure maple syrup, honey, nuts, a spatula, and fruit for a homemade breakfast treat. If you give it to a family member, you can offer to make breakfast for them!
Gourmet Olives or Red Peppers – Fill some glass jars with gourmet olives and roasted red peppers and voila, another easy gift is done.
Organic Cocoa Mix (or coffee, tea) – Pick up some organic cocoa mix, coffee, or tea and wrap it up with a bright-colored mug or teapot.
Fresh almond or cashew butter - Make your own nut butter (recipe here) and give it to friends with a whole-grain baguette or a bag of organic apples to dip in it.
Homemade hot sauce – Find a hot sauce recipe online (one with great reviews) and make a big batch at home. Pick up some glass bottles and give to your spice-loving friends. It should last about 6 months in the refrigerator.
Dark chocolate – Pick up bars of high-quality dark chocolate as stocking stuffers. Look for high cacao content.
