Want To Give Healthy Snacks To Your Children This School Year? Give them Chobani Kids & Tots! #Giveaway

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

As I have mentioned many times, I will be the first one to admit that it isn't always easy to feed my children healthy foods, especially when it comes to Back to School time and having to pack a lunch every day for my son. I have to consciously make an effort to pack nutritious and healthy foods that will fuel my children's bodies and keep them healthy!

This school year, Chobani is helping me out with snack time with their Kids and Tots Pouches and Tubes – a perfect snack to eat on the go or throw in the lunch box for my son for snack time!

Chobani Kids and Tots offer nutritious and delicious options for lunch and snack time, plus parents can feel good knowing they’re made with only natural, non-GMO ingredients and 25% less sugar than the leading kids’ yogurt. Plus, with Disney and Justice League packaging, and delicious new flavors like Strawberry Banana, they’re fun for kids too!

My kids absolutely LOVE the fun packaging and they literally beg to have these Chobani Kids & Tots Greek Yogurt pouches and tubes every day!

And I don't argue about giving it to them because Chobani Kids® has 25% less sugar than the leading kids’ yogurt and is a good source of protein, with 2X more protein compared to the leading kids’ yogurt! Plus, I throw them in the freezer to make a tasty frozen yogurt treat!

My children love to eat them here, there, everywhere - even in our new playground fort on a beautiful almost Fall day! I love that they don't need a spoon, bowl or even a napkin! They eat it neatly and it is portable for wherever they want to eat their snack!

My youngest son really loves the Chobani Tots, especially because of the cute Pooh and other character packaging!

I love them because they contain 8 grams of protein and 12mg of Omega-3 DHA and are made with real fruits and vegetables! I only want what it is best for his little body!

These Chobani Kids & Tots Yogurts make my kids smile and they make me smile giving it to them because they are only natural, non-GMO ingredients and have ZERO added or artificial colors or flavors. Never should those be going into my child's body!

#TakeBackDessert with Yasso Greek Yogurt Bars

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

I recently had a really, really bad case of strep throat. I was in bed for over a week, couldn't eat anything or barely swallow and I couldn't find a single thing I wanted or could eat...except for Yasso Greek yogurt bars! These were my savior while I was ill. They felt so good on my throat, I could swallow it easily, they tasted AMAZING and they were filled with protein which I needed since I wasn't eating much! The Strawberry flavor was my go-to treat but the new Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough is right behind it!

With summer almost here, I am so glad I can finally reach for a healthier frozen treat! Yasso is the first-ever line of frozen Greek yogurt bars to hit the market. In 2009, founders Amanda Klane and Drew Harrington set out on a mission to craft a wholesome and delicious everyday frozen treat. After two years of perfecting their recipe, Yasso Frozen Greek Yogurt Bars were born. Hitting store shelves in mid-2011, Yasso quickly became one of the fastest-growing brands in the frozen novelty category. 

Made with only natural ingredients, including real Greek yogurt, rBST-free milk and natural sweeteners, Yasso is a great low-calorie frozen treat filled with protein and containing little to no fat.

Yasso Frozen Greek Yogurt Bars come in 12 delicious flavors: Mint Chocolate Chip, Sea Salt Caramel, Chocolate Fudge, Peanut Butter Cup, Blueberry, Strawberry, Vanilla Bean, and Coconut. Also offering 2 candy bar products: Sea Salt Caramel and Toffee Crunch.

I really like to have a little treat after the kids go to bed each night but I always feel a little guilty doing it. Now I don't have to with Yasso. I feel great knowing I am getting some good protein and the low calorie count of each bar keeps me within my calorie count for the day! THANK YOU YASSO!

Buy It: 

You can purchase Yasso products at major grocery and club stores nationwide. To find your local retailers and to learn more about the Yasso brand, please visit www.yasso.com.

New Tasty Products from Dannon

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

March is Frozen Food Month and, in honor of it, make sure to try a new frozen item from Dannon Oikos: Greek Frozen Yogurt!

As a good source of protein and containing only half the fat of regular ice cream, Dannon Oikos Greek Frozen Yogurt is a healthy and delicious frozen dessert. Slated to hit the shelves in March, Dannon is releasing three new flavors of this frozen yogurt – Salted Caramel, Mint Chocolate Chip and Cookies & Cream.

Treat yourself to an indulgent frozen yogurt experience! This Greek Frozen Yogurt is rich, creamy-thick, and half the fat of regular ice cream*. Plus it's a good source of protein!

I really loved that when I compared the calorie count of this Dannon Greek Frozen Yogurt to my other favorite ice creams, it was over HALF the calories! Plus, it tastes really great and gives me some good protein! My favorite was the Mint Chocolate Chip! So refreshing as the weather warms up!

Another great product from Dannon is their Light & Fit Protein Shakes, a new on-the-go option with a satisfying taste to help shrink everyday food temptations.

Temptations come in many forms – from a box of donuts at the office to a late-day cookie craving. Light & Fit Protein Shakes are a deliciously convenient way to help overcome some of the tough daily enticements. With 12 grams of protein, 5 grams of fiber and 0% fat per 10 fl. oz. bottle, Light & Fit Protein Shakes are a healthy way to satisfy your sweet tooth. The product comes in a convenient, portable 10 fl. oz. bottle, making it easy to enjoy while tackling any busy day.

My husband has been taking these for breakfast for a healthier alternative to his usual unhealthier breakfast like donuts, pastries or other sugary breakfasts. He says he feels fuller, more alert and not hungry for a longer period of time!

The only drawback - the artificial colors in every flavor! Wish they would get rid of those and I would be an even bigger fan!

Buy It: 

You can purchase Light & Fit Protein Shakes in 10 fl. oz. 4 packs in four delicious flavors: Strawberry, Mixed Berry, Vanilla and Banana and both Dannon Oikos Greek Frozen Yogurt and Light & Fit Protein Shakes are available in grocery stores nationwide.

Check out the NEW Elli Quark!

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

One of the staples in my fridge at all time is yogurt because I eat it as a great, nutritious snack every day! It is great after a workout, to tide me over between meals, and it gives me a great source of protein!

This week I tried something new for my snack. It is a new product on the market: Elli Quark, A FRESH CHEESE similar to Greek yogurt without the sour bite & better protein-to-carb ratio with high protein, no added sugars, & no artificial sweeteners!

I will be honest...I was a bit nervous to try this because it is a "cheese" but now I am seriously now a BIG FAN!

There were so many great flavors but my favorite were the fruit flavors, like Cherry and Strawberry! They were so fresh and flavorful!

Besides the great taste, I also really love that Elli Quark is All Natural and Made with Non-GMO Ingredients!

It is also: 

- Made with Milk from Cows not Treated with rBST

- No Added Sugars, No Artificial Sweeteners

- No Preservatives

- Gluten Free

- OU Kosher Certified

- Vegetarian Friendly: Made without Gelatin

- Safe for People with Corn, Nut & Soy Allergies

Check out all these flavors:  

Plain, Strawberry, Blueberry, Peach, Lemon, Pineapple, Cherry, Vanilla Bean, Red Velvet, Bananas Foster, Mint Chocolate, Sea Salt Caramel

I really recommend Elli Quark for all Greek Yogurt lovers like me! The flavors are really tasty, the yogurt is really smooth and made without all the icky stuff and it can be delivered right to your door!

Buy It: 

You can purchase Elli Quark in all 12 flavors and have it delivered fresh to their door (EQ is the very first dairy brand to launch an online store with direct delivery!) from the Elli Quark online store.

Stonyfield Organic Greek Yogurt & Giveaway

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

Something I eat on a daily basis because it not only tastes great, but is a great source of protein is Stonyfield Organic Greek Yogurt! It is seriously like a guilty pleasure - I look forward to the time each day when I get to open it, take a bite of the creamy, deliciousness, and I definitely savor each bite!

By now you’ve likely tried Greek yogurt too...there are lots of new Greek yogurt companies out there... but have you tried Stonyfield Organic Greek yogurt? This January, they introduced their newly perfected recipe and added two delicious flavors - Black Cherry and Café Latte.

Black Cherry is my ultimate favorite yogurt flavor so when I saw that Stonyfield came out with this flavor in their Organic Greek Yogurt, I was ecstatic! I immediately went out to buy it and it made me look forward to eating my daily Greek yogurt even more!

Stonyfield Greek yogurt is unique because it’s organic - it's made from organic milk produced without the use of toxic persistent pesticides, chemical fertilizers, antibiotics, or artificial growth hormones (rBST). I feel that organic is not only better for you, but better for the planet as well.

If you are interested in trying Greek yogurt or are looking for a better-for-you brand, I HIGHLY recommend Stonyfield Organic Greek yogurt!!!
