Last summer around this time I supported a Kickstarter for Cocomama Foods to launch their new “Crunched Out” Granola. You may know Cocomama from their original product line Cocomama Quinoa Cereal. The Quinoa Cereal is a delicious, ready-to-eat hot or cold cereal in convenient pouches. This is a protein and fiber rich, tasty and convenient breakfast that comes in Wild Blueberry, Banana Cinnamon, Honey Almond and Orange Cranberry flavors.
Cocomama founder Sara Gragnolati learned of food allergies in 2008. She worked to develop new recipes for delicious gluten and allergen free foods, because she didn’t find much that appealed to her in the market at that time. She launched her Quinoa Cereal pouches in 2010.
The Kickstarter in 2014 was to support the launch of their new ancient grain granola in Fudgy Chocolate and Vanilla Cinnamon. Crunched Out cereal is “snackable” granola clusters. They start with toasted seven ancient grains, almonds and infuse vanilla and cinnamon to make Vanilla Cinnamon clusters. They add chocolate to the mix for the Fudgy Chocolate variety. Each cluster is lightly sweetened and filled with a healthy balance protein and fiber. The promise: Crunched Out will “leave you satisfied and energized to crunch out the day’s duties.”
Cocomama cereal and granolas are all natural and made with seven Ancient Grains. They are free of gluten, dairy, corn and soy. They are vegan and high in fiber and protein.
As perks for supporting the Kickstarter at a pretty high level, I got a bunch of bags of the Crunched Out cereal, some original Quinoa Cereals, some delicious tea and T-shirts. The Husband wears his “Eat Quinoa – Leap Tall Buildings” shirt all of the time (which is pretty ironic if you have ever seen The Husband eat!) The granolas are delicious, not too sweet and have protein from quinoa so they are very filling. I love the chunks and texture of this granola. It goes well with almond milk (or whatever milk you choose), as a topping for ice cream — or wherever you use granola.
You don’t have to take my word for it. I am going to giveaway one 9 oz. bag of each flavor to one lucky winner. Please use the Rafflecopter below to enter. The giveaway runs through June 25th. A winner will be selected and notified on June 26th. Winner must be a US resident or have a US postal intermediary, be 18 years of age or older and the offer is void where prohibited.
In the meantime, you can get Cocomama cereals online here. You can also follow them on Facebook and Twitter.
