I’m a sucker for monthly subscription boxes. I love the excitement of getting a box in the mail and having no clue what’s inside. I love the anticipation that comes with checking out the new products I received to try out, and most of all, I love to eat good food. This is why I jumped at the opportunity to try one of the newest subscription boxes on the market – the Bestowed box.
Bestowed is the creation of Heather Bauer, a nationally recognized nutrition expert, author, and entrepreneur. Each month she selects the products that Bestowed includes in each box, and you get 5+ healthy, new products to try out at your doorstep. I was excited to see that so many of my favorite brands had been included in past Bestowed boxes. I knew that I would be getting some good stuff, if their past boxes were an indication of what was in store for me.
In my box I received:
- Oloves Hot Chilli Mama Olives
- Nature’s Earthly Choice Easy Quinoa Lentil Soup Mix
- Happy Family – Happy Squeeze Smoothies (which was promptly consumed by my little guy)
- Manitoba Harvest Hemp Hearts
- Artisana Coconut Butter
- Nature’s Bakery Fig Bars
- $25 iTrain Gift Card
The box also came with a sheet describing the product and its benefits and two tips on how to use it. I found this handy for the hemp hearts, since they were something I never used to really heard of before.
Overall, I was very happy with what I received in my Bestowed box. All of the food items were great and I especially loved the Quinoa Lentil Soup. I ended up making it for dinner on an evening when I came home from work to an empty fridge. All I had to do was bring some water to a boil and a yummy, hearty and filling soup was ready for my belly.
Bestowed box retails for $19/month or for $209/year, but if you use code 5OFFBSTOWED01 you get $5 off your first month’s box!
The absolute best part is that Bestowed agreed to let one of my readers try one of their boxes for free! Just use the Rafflecopter below to enter. U.S. residents only, please!

Ps: I am dying to try that quinoa soup!
