“Rethink what you drink.” I did! Now I’m in love with Silk Pure Almond Milk.
For those of you who haven’t heard me mention this before; I have been trying switch up some foods in my diet due to some stomach problems I have been experiencing while running. Decreasing the amount of dairy and gluten I consume, were at the top of my list.
A little problem though…I LOVE my cereal/granola and milk in the morning. However, lucky for me, this is when I spotted Silk Pure Almond Milk at Wegman’s and decided to give it a try. This proved to be one of my top 10 best ideas as it was a great dairy milk substitute AND a perfect match with my Glutenfreeda’s Apple Almond Honey Granola in the morning. I love it so much that I go to bed at night excited to wake up and eat this beautiful combination!

Best protein shake mixer…ever
good call Kat!!
I am a huge Silk almond milk fan! I converted about 2 years ago and haven’t looked back since. My favorite treat is tossing chocolate almond milk, frozen banana, a little peanut butter, and some chia seeds in my Ninja and making a smoothie, so GOOD!
YAY!!
I haven’t tried it but I”m seeing lots of great recipes that include it
Yes, everyone is so creative, I’m plain, but still love it!
I definitely need to try Silk Almond Milk! I’m loving everyone’s recipes and reviews!
yes, you do Mindy! It’s yummy!
Hi Jenelle! Has limiting you dairy and gluten been helping? I have also been experiencing stomach issues a lot as I’m building speed & mileage and was curious. I’ve been reading your blog for a while but I think this is the first time I’m commenting. I love it!
I think limiting dairy has definitely helped. I’m not sure about the gluten-haven’t noticed major differences with that. What have you noticed or tried?
I love this milk and with all the talk about additives in almond milks I’m glad to see that that this one does NOT have Carrageenan from what I can tell. Yay!
I drink silk everyday in cereal or a shake! I love it soooo much! I go through it so fast I buy two at a time always! Yummmmm! :0)
I loveeeee Silk!! I use it in my smoothies/shakes and it tastes good in cereal too. I love the dark chocolate flavor, but I will drink the entire carton in a day. The unsweetened vanilla is my go to!
Love that stuff!!
I’ve cut out dairy and it’s been fabulous. The best part has been unexpected weight loss!
I may have to give this a try. It’s been years since I’ve had a milk alternative and I just remember them being too sweet and artificial tasting. But it sounds like they’ve improved them considerably and I love that there is the unsweetened option!
I have never tried it before, but all these posts are making me quite curious.
I do like Silk! I like using it in smoothies, oatmeal and cereal. I’m not a big fan of just drinking any kind of milk plain, though.
