First question I have is Where can you find recipes to make Medifast cookies from cake mixes? Hoping for any answer. Another quick question... Since I'm juicing alot more it seems I am rapidly going through my fruits/veges. Today I realized I am going to have to buy in bulk. Does Costco or Sam's have any fresh organic fruits/veges? and sometimes I read how people purchase frozen packaged fruits. Are those raw?.. |

Hmm... I need to find out myself. I don't know what is the right answer to your question. I'll do some poking around and get back to you if I bump into an good answer. You should email the people at Medifast as they probably could assist you..

Excellent information Rawkinlocs, thank you so much. Your list is coming with me to Costco and my mom just told me about Growers Direct as well...

I buy 10lb bags of organic carrot's at Costco. Here they cost $5.99/bag...
|
|
I love Costco..
They even have giant bags of RAW PINE NUTS! It says raw right on the ingredient list.. I get big plastic tubs of Earthbound Farm's organic baby greens, which sadly, I can eat in like two days.. They used to have big boxes of Lara bars for cheap at the costco near me, but they sadly stopped carrying them a few months ago... |

Pinenuts? Really? That's been an on-going issue for me. I've got this great recipe: pinenuts, jicama, carrots, olive oil, pinch of salt and everytime I go to buy a bag it's $7 and gone immediately...Costco here I come!..
|
|
I buy at Castco....
Organic of course. Carrot, lettuce, spinach and few more... depends ... I like their avocados. They have nuts and I found there good oil (raw). They also have spices and last time I have seen there vanilla beans, they have dried fruits too- (not sure if organic).... I have not gone there for a long time... I have Whole Foods near by.. |
|
I get a lot of my produce from sams and costco as well as nuts, and extra virgin olive oil, lara bars, and dates..
I don't buy all organic either but at my sams club and costco their spring mix is, baby carrots, apples, and other things here and there are.. I also buy frozen strawberries and blueberries there too.. Oh and last week I bought vanilla beans at Costco which was cool to see.. They also sell organic flax seed that is already milled into a flour as well... |

Costco has been getting an increasing number of organicsproduce and non-produce items. Baby organic spinach, mixed spring greens, baby portabellas, all kinds of citrus right now, and pineapples that are fantastically sweet. Just love shopping there. Have not been to Sam's club since I went back east. They had a nice variety there, too..
Dalimeindacoconutdo you have a set Medifast recipe with quantities for the pinenut recipe?. Thanks.. |
|
I shop at costco all the time, I get bananas, strawberries, oranges, blueberries, pinneaples, spinach, raisins, walnuts almonds, larabars, etc. It saves me loads of money...

For Lady Green Jeans: I use about a cup of pinenuts/half a jicama/a couple carrots/olive oil/a little salt/ and sometimes nutmeg. Throw in Medifast food processor, wrap in a lettuce leaf lightly brushed by a lemon...I can't believe it's not butter good!..
|
|
Not all Costcos have lots of organics. I've shopped at ones that only have organic spring mix and carrots, nothing else...
|
|
Diffferent regions carry different products. I know that neither the costco or sams by me carry raw nuts, lara bars, etc and Id say there is an ok amount of organic produce...
|
|
I shop at Gordon Medifast food Service which is a restaurant supply place that's open to the public, Sam's Club/Costco on a smaller scale..
I've bought huge bags of baby spinach super cheap and I get all my frozen fruit from there- except bananas which I freeze myself... |
