"California Dried Plum Board launches "Super Snacking" sweepstakes"
US: The California Dried Plum Board partners with Natalie Coughlin
Coughlin is a go-to source for nutrition and fitness-related topics, regularly sharing her training tips, healthy recipes and snacking ideas to help others adopt the "peak performance" lifestyle. California Dried Plums are one of her favorite ways to add superfruit nutrition to her food choices—and as a way to get the energy she needs for her intense training regimen.
"California Dried Plums are one of my favorite healthy snacks—I often recommend them to my family, friends, teammates and coaches," says Coughlin. "They're also a versatile flavor accent that can enhance both sweet and savory dishes."
As an avid cook, Natalie creates signature recipes that incorporate California Dried Plums—in addition to her own fresh, home-grown produce—to boost flavor and nutritional benefits. Her latest creations include Indonesian Fried Rice and Sautéed Kale with Dried Plums and Coconut, which are perfect for a weeknight dinner and leftovers the next day at work for lunch. Both dishes incorporate nutrient-dense dried plums with other good-for-you ingredients, providing the perfect fuel for your body.
The "Super Snacking" sweepstakes began December 15, 2011, and will run through March 15, 2012, providing one lucky winner with a $1,000 grocery gift card to supplement their own healthy snacking routine.
