Product Review

I am realizing more and more the importance of eating healthy and taking control of your own health. I want to make sure that not only am I putting the best things in my body but also in Ava's. I have been on the hunt for a healthier snack for Ava since Amy told me that our pediatrician told her that we shouldn't be feeding the girls goldfish as a snack anymore. Oops! She said that we should be giving our kids less processed food and she suggested trying some Kashi cereal as an alternative to goldfish. Of course fruit or veggies would be even better but those usually don't do too well in snack traps for eating snacks on the run (the moms know what I am talking about). I have tried several different Kashi cereals myself and although I like a few of them I didn't think Ava would really like them. I tried another kind of Kashi cereal, Honey Sunshine, and it is a hit with Ava and I. It is our new favorite. It looks like Captain Crunch but is not super sugary. It is naturally sweetened with honey and is a good source of fiber and whole grains. Give it a try!



I also really like these chips, Corazonas Tortilla Chips with a squeeze of Lime. I'm not a huge chip fan but I do like tortilla chips and salsa every now and then. These chips are all natural, gluten free, made with whole grains, and 0g trans fat. Another great thing about them is they only cost $1.99 and they sell them at Super Target!

OOOh, thanks for the product review...I love these! Too bad I just bought a box of Heart to Heart even though you said the girls probably wouldn't like it. I might be having that and getting Brin some HONEY SUNSHINE! Go whole grains- Boo Goldfish! Wouldn't Dr. Pam be proud????
