SunRype Fruit Snacks

#sunrype, SheSpeaks

If your kids are like mine....they LOVE fruit snacks! If you are like me....you secretly love them also.

A few weeks ago the lovely people from SunRype USA teamed up with the lovely people from SheSpeaks.com and sent bloggers across the country with a box FULL of SunRype goodies!

Inside the box were 3 different types of snacks with 2 different flavors each.

First, there were the Fruit & Grains bars. I have to admit, it did not look very appealing at all. But, I put that aside and bit into the bar anyway. It really wasn't THAT bad. Please know that I normally do not eat things like this anyway. I tried the summer berries bar. It was good, but something I will more than likely not pick up at the store. If you normally eat bars like this, I bet you would love these. There are lots of grains in the bar. The texture of the bar is very grainy and just breaks apart in your mouth. Out of the 3 these were my least favorite.

Next I tried the fruit bars. I am a BIG fan of natural fruit leathers and this is just a giant version of a fruit leather, to me. I tried the strawberry and oh my gosh! It was SO good! These are the PERFECT afternoon snack for me! I looked up the points value on these bars but now I can't remember if they were 2 or 3 points. But, either way, they are totally worth it plus, each bar counts as 2 fruit servings! Mads tried these as well but did not care for them. That is fine, I will eat them all!

Finally, we tried the fruit strip. These are perfect to toss in your child's lunch! Each little strip pulls apart so there is a fun factor with these. These are VERY chewy/gummy/sticky. I did not like that aspect but I am also not sure that can be helped. Both girls liked these, both flavors were great!

The strips are fun to pull apart and play with! Let your kids play with their food once in a while!

I was worried I would not be able to find these in my local stores, but as we were grocery shopping the other night....my hubby actually pointed them out! We were in the produce section and he said "Hey! Look at these, I bet these are good!"  He had no idea I had a box full of them sitting in the kitchen!  lol

In the end, the fruit bars and strips will definitely be picked up at the store the next time we see them, the fruit and grain bars....well....I am sorry but I am going to have to pass on those.

You can find #SunRype on Facebook! Be sure to like their page, they have a coupon up right now for B1G1 Free! But hurry, there are very limited qualities!

FROZEN Hot Chocolate

I am sure by now, most of you know that FROZEN the Movie is coming to theaters THIS WEEK (the 27th to be exact)! I am so excited!! My girls saw some of the FROZEN merchandise while we were at Walt Disney World and that is all they could talk about.....for days! It has been a rough school year for both of the girls so far. Mads is adjusting to being in the upper elementary, was dealing with a bully and gets super frustrated with math (even though she is really good at it). MG is adjusting to actually being in school, went through a time of having accidents at school and she just misses her mommy. To celebrate Mads good grades and MG going a month accident free, I decided to treat the girls with a few fun new toys and some hot chocolate. Once I heard that FROZEN merchandise was available at Walmart, I ran to stock up. While I was there, it hit me! I could have #Frozenfun with the hot chocolate and make FROZEN Hot chocolate! I just knew the girls would love it! I was k

Le Cellier - Chedder Cheese Soup Recipe Review

I first talked about this soup here .   I have to admit, was not real eager to try this soup.  I can not stand the taste of beer.  PERIOD!  It doesn't take much in a recipe for me to be able to taste it.  With that being said, the soup wasn't bad.  I would try it with ginger ale next time though. Before I tell you what I thought of the soup I need to be fair and tell you about some changes I made to the recipe. First, the recipe tells you to cook the bacon just to render out the fats, not to make crispy.  I did not render out enough of the fats and in fact next time, I would cook the bacon until it IS crispy.  I don't like limp bacon, I like my bacon extra crispy. Second, I TOTALLY forgot to cook down the onions and celery before adding the flour!  Ummmm......ooops! So my bacon was limp and my veggies were crispy!  HAHA! Next, I am not on a budget to be able to purchase "Aged White Cheddar" so good ol Yellow Sharp Cheddar it was! I did NOT add one tablespoo

Strawberries and Cream Instant Oatmeal | Recipe

I don't know about you but, we go through oatmeal like that is the only thing to eat on this planet!   Seriously a TON! My youngest would eat it for every meal and snack....every day....if I let her. Yes, the little packs can be cheap (if you can find a coupon and get them on sale) but it still adds up.  I used things I already had on hand so there was no extra cost to make this.  FREE is ALWAYS good!   I tried before to make little packets to keep on hand but that was a complete fail.  I have since reworked the recipe and am happy with the results.  I decided to just keep the oatmeal in a glass container this time and scoop out what we need, when we need it.  You can also make this into packets by just scooping the desired amount into zip-top bags. {Strawberries & Cream Instant Oatmeal}   12 Servings 6 Cups Quick Cook Oats 1 1/2 Cups Oat Powder 2 Cups Powdered Milk 1 - 1 1/2 Cup Sugar 1 Cup Freeze Dried Strawberries Directions f
