Funfetti Cake Batter Breakfast Bake

If you’re uncertain what’s in a breakfast bake, let us break it down for you. This one is a combination of oats, almond flour and vanilla almond milk (plus a few more very special ingredients). It’s a healthy spin on a sugary treat. (via Running With Spoons)

Not only is there a whole box of funfetti cake batter in these cookies, but there’s also a full eight ounces of cream cheese. Holy crap. Cream cheese in cookies is definitely the way to sign us up for this trend. (via Cookies & Cups)

Cake Batter Dip Recipe

We know a thing or two about savory party dips, but this sweet, cake batter version is a whole different ballgame. We feel like dipping animal crackers in this just *might* taste like heaven. (via Budget Savvy Diva)

Healthy Funfetti Protein Bars

This is the ultimate non-cake recipe, because unlike cake, it’s actually kind of healthy. Boasting tons of vanilla protein and cashew butter, it’s basically a protein bar disguised as a cake. (via Bests and Bites)

I didn’t ever expect the Avocado Toast Bar to actually taste like avocado toast, and Compartés never promised that either. Their mission is *all* about creating chocolate magic, and I got an extremely pure taste of that upon biting into the avo-based bar.

Described on the packaging as a “creamy avocado chocolate with crispy crunchy homemade toast,” each succulent bite was equal parts rich and textured, thanks to the toasty bits. I'm obsessed!

Although made primarily with avocado, its flavor notes went mostly undetected during my time of indulgence – but it was still delicious AF. The white chocolate came bursting through with every single mouthful without being extremely overwhelming. I can't help but picturing myself using this bar for white chocolate chip cookies! 🤤

Apparently, the culinary world is no stranger to avocado desserts (see our pistachio chocolate pudding, mint chip avocado ice cream, and avocado bars), and the green fruit is a big helper in making sweets that much creamier. After trying this avocado toast bar, I see it now! It’s going to be astronomically hard not to eat this whole bar in one sitting.

Would you try the avocado toast chocolate bar?

Meet the Snapdragon Chicken Pad Thai, a microwavable meal that includes chicken, rice noodles, bell peppers, and bean sprouts in a “tangy” stir fry sauce. The item was surfaced to the Costco community by a Reddit user that definitely had a bone to pick with it.

“This was not a good choice,” they wrote. “The sauce was absolutely dry and the mix of undercooked noodles was not a pleasant experience. Even added a bit of water to the tray, after the general cooking time, to bring some moisture to it. Didn’t work.” Oof.

Now, one shopper with a single negative review is one thing, but many more fellow Costco patrons chimed in re: the disappointing nature of the Pad Thai on the same Reddit thread.

“I'm surprised Costco still carries this,” one person wrote. “I thought it was awful.”

“It was so awful,” another said. “I couldn't make myself eat it.”

“Might be the single worst thing we’ve bought from Costco,” one more user commented.

A lot of people also noted that the noodles in the dish were dry, the chicken was not of good quality, and that the overall flavor was lacking – which, according to my hunch as a food lover, is a simple lesson that authentic international dishes shouldn’t always be replicated in a quick and convenient, “heat and eat” format.

So, all this to say: if you’re craving Pad Thai, it’s best to skip this Costco pick and order takeout from your local Thai joint. It's always better fresh!
