My Favorite Water Bottles!

With so many water bottles on the market, I wanted to share my absolute favorites! I drink over 100 oz of water a day so I like to think I am an expert on reusable water bottles! My favorite water bottles are ones that can hold a lot of water and also can keep your water cold all day!

Stanley 40 oz

favorite water bottles

My Stanely has become my everyday house water bottle. It’s so big that I just fill it up like 3 times a day and I get all my water in. I don’t love to take it out because it’s kind of bulky due to the handle. But the handle really makes it so I wouldn’t just get rid of it if that makes sense!

Hydro Flak 40 oz

Black- Shop Here

This is my I’m going to be out all day water bottle. It’s easy to throw in a bag or just take on the go because it’s just a little sleeker than the Stanley. I’ve had my hydro flask for literally years and It’s still going strong. I do swap out my straws every few months just to keep everything extra clean.

Simply Modern 28 oz

My Simply modern water bottle is literally my errands and out and about water. I take this to work, a workout class, or when I’m in and out of stores shopping. It’s small so it’s easy to go out with and I love it. It’s also great when I’m washing my stanley to have this as my back up.

As you can see, I literally have a water for every part of my day. This list here is really my favorite water bottles ever and I truly use them all the time. It’s so important to get your water in and having these just makes it easier!

My Iced Matcha Recipe!

As I mentioned in my last week’s post, I have been loving this Iced Match Recipe! I look forward to it each and every morning! Matcha is so great for me because it doesn’t leave me anxious and jittery like coffee or chai does so this is a great alternative.

Before you start making matcha, you definitely want a few things on hand to make your life easier! I’ll link my go to matcha essentials below! They’re affiliate links so I do make a small commission if you purchase through me!

  2. Prep the cup you’re actually going to drink out of by adding ice, 1-2 pumps sweetener, and 1 cup of milk.
  3. Pour the hot matcha over the iced cup and stir with a straw to combine!

Brussel Sprout Pasta Salad Recipe!

Summer for me is all about a good pasta salad. I live for it at BBQs and just weeknight dinners in general. Lately I’ve been trying to really use up all the produce in my fridge and I found myself making this Brussel Sprout Pasta Salad!

This combines some of my favorite summer flavors and does well on its own or as a side! You’ll be obsessed with the flavor combo once you give it a try!

brussel sprout pasta salad

Ingredients

1 can chickpeas rinsed and drained

7-8 Brussel sprouts thinly chopped

1 package cooked orzo

1 tsp oregano

diced walnuts

feta or parmesan cheese (I used vegan)

1 tsp parsley

1 tbsp lemon juice

salt & pepper

1/2 cup olive oil

Directions

  1. Sauté your Brussel sprouts in a pan with a drop of olive oil. You just want them to be soft and not too crispy!
  2. Assemble the dressing by combining olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, parsley, and salt & pepper. Mix well and set aside.
  3. Mix together the cooked orzo, Brussel sprouts, and chickpeas then add in the dressing and mix well.
  4. Garnish with diced walnuts and cheese!

This is the most delicious pasta salad. It gives you a little more than a normal one would with the protein from the chickpeas and nuts and then the greens from the Brussel sprouts.

I also love the light dressing. Sometimes people get a little too crazy with the flavors and I’ve found this really compliments these well! If you loved this recipe, you can check out my others here! You can also follow me on pinterest @cassiedenisco for more recipes!!
