I believe it was that great philosopher, The Incredible Hulk, who once said, \u201cYou won\u2019t like me when I\u2019m angry.\u201d While my even-tempered disposition tends to safely stay in the Bruce Banner realm, there\u2019s one time of day when irritability\u00a0can get the best of me \u2013 when I\u2019m hungry. I know I\u2019m not alone in that. There\u2019s a reason why the word \u201changry\u201d has become a well-known descriptor for that time when being hungry merges with being angry\u2026 Then just wait for the green skin to appear and for my dress pants to become shorts.<\/p>\n
The time when the Hulk is hardest to keep under wraps\u00a0is while making dinner. I don\u2019t want to eat a snack that will ruin my appetite, but I also need something to quiet my grumbling stomach, so that I can focus on chopping and saut\u00e9ing.<\/p>\n
Then recently I was introduced to Millies Savory Teas<\/a> via a review on Vegan Crunk<\/a>. Once I heard about these \u201csipping broths,\u201d I had to try them out for myself. Instead of being your typical tea, they come in flavors\u00a0like Tomato Basil, Indian Spice, Thai Lemongrass, Spicy Tortilla, Smoky Facon, and Snappy Butternut.<\/p>\n The tea is made by just pouring hot water over a tea bag in a cup and giving it time to steep. The teas have a bit of green tea in them, but the overwhelming flavor is of broth. The soothing soup-style drinks sate my hunger and make it easier to wait until dinner is ready. \u00a0Plus, each cup of tea is only about 20 calories, and so it doesn’t cut into my regular meal.<\/p>\n The teas can be purchased individually or in packs on the\u00a0Millies Savory Tea website<\/a>. I chose the Five Flavor Snack Pack, so that I could sample a variety of the flavors. My favorites are the Tomato Basil, Spicy Tortilla, and Smoky Facon (short for “fake bacon”). All of the flavors are gluten free and vegan.<\/p>\n Image Credit: Photo by Cadry Nelson\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I believe it was that great philosopher, The Incredible Hulk, who once said, \u201cYou won\u2019t like me when I\u2019m angry.\u201d While my even-tempered disposition tends to safely stay in the Bruce Banner realm, there\u2019s one time of day when irritability\u00a0can get the best of me \u2013 when I\u2019m hungry.
