What can I say about an all natural snack that has chocolate listed as it’s number two ingredient? YUM! :)
I was stoked to find these on sale at Safeway for 2 for $5.00. To make matters better, the boxes had a coupon on them for $1.00 off. Result: one box of wholesome goodness for $1.50. I could sit here and describe how good these are or you can click here to get a box sent to you free of charge. Which is an even better deal.
As a mother of two young girls, I find that healthy, yummy and quick don’t always mix the way I’d like them to. Especially in the mornings before school.
Recently, I found a variety of really really good granola at my local Whole Foods in the bulk section. The Vanillla Almond is super yummy! I gave my daughters (ages 6 and 4) each a bowl of it for dessert one night, covered in organic vanilla yogurt from Safeway and topped with some fresh berries. They absolutely loved it!
A few days later I offered it to them for breakfast and they were so excited they ran up and hugged me! Dessert for breakfast, who would have thought?
Now we have a selection of different kinds, including one with dried raspberries in it. My girls really enjoy picking what flavors they want for the week, and I am so so happy to have all the big boxes of cereal out of my cabinets. Even Dad thinks it’s great! With all the different choices, no one feels like they are always eating the same thing.
The world is a bit happier and healthier, and I can still have mine topped with blackberries or blueberries for desert. Now, if only the rest of our health food switches and introductions go so well, we’ll really be in business!
