We are never without yogurt at my house from the flavored fruit variety to the plain for cooking.  When I was contacted by MyBlogSpark to see if I would be interested in reviewing Yoplait Go-Gurt, of course, I said yes knowing this is a healthier, more nutritious choice to pack in your child's lunch than cookies or snack cakes.  

A nice thing to know about this product is that you are not feeling your children extra chemicals associated with high fructose corn syrup.  Instead, Yoplait Go-Gurt is made with pure sugar.

I also liked how convenient this form of yogurt sticks in a tube were when you're especially rushed to prepare lunches.  Store them in the freezer and these will unthaw to the perfect consistency in time for their lunch.  This low-fat protein yogurt excites a child just as much as working that tube to enjoy that treat. 

They come in sixteen delicious flavors like yummy Strawberry Milkshake and Banana Split, which rate especially high at our house.  To learn more about Yoplait Go-Gurt visit their website.

Pick some packages up the next time you need groceries.  Your children as well as adults are sure to love it!

To get in the mood for Halloween, you need to head over to Target and check out the Big G Monster Cereals while they are available.  You might remember Count Chocula, Franken Berry, and Boo Berry and how awesome those cereal nuggets and little flavored marshmallows tasted especially at this time of year when you were growing up.  This year General Mills is adding two new temptations with Frute Brute and Fruity Yummy Mummy to their Monster Cereal line as well. 

To jot your memory somewhat, I made a list of those sweet but spooky cereals that you will want to pick up.

Count Chocula is the chocolate cereal with chocolate marshmallows.

Boo-Berry has berry flavored cereal with marshmallow bits.

Frankenberry is the strawberry one with strawberry marshmallows.

Frute Brute has cherry cereal to the marshmallows.

Fruity Yummy Mummy is orange cereal with marshmallows.

Now that I turned back the clock and got your taste buds going, I have a fun freebie to share.  If you buy three boxes of General Mills Monster Cereals at Target in a single shopping trip between now and October 31, 2013, you will also get a free Monster Bash Magazine, which is full of great Halloween recipes, tips, and tricks.

Now doesn't that sound like a fun and yummy deal?  But this offer won't last long so you need to get shopping at Target for those Big G Monster Cereals!

Make a Giant Difference to Your Health and Weight--Green Giant Valley Fresh and Seasoned Steamers Vegetables (Review)

Nothing can beat the flavor and nutrition of fresh vegetables, especially when you are trying to lose weight.  However, preparing them can take time when that is not an option.  Being the case, I have the perfect solution thanks to MyBlogSpark and the tasty selection of Green Giant frozen vegetables.

For instance, their delicious microwaveable Valley Fresh Steamers Broccoli & Cheese Sauce, which has more fresh flavor intact than you can imagine.  The steaming process also helps preserve more vitamins as well.   When you eat your veggies steamed and topped with that creamy cheese sauce, you feel more satisfied enjoying such a comfort food due to that sauce. The best part is that all that food is only  45 calories per one half-prepared cup.

Another excellent choice I sampled was their Seasoned Steamers Tuscan Seasoned Broccoli.  This one has the broccoli with Parmesan cheese and Tuscan inspired seasonings and is only 60 calories per one half-prepared cup!

Twenty-five varieties of Green Giant Frozen Vegetables are even endorsed by Weight Watchers to keep you on track.  Whether you crave something rich and creamy, you don't need to feel guilty that you're sabotaging your diet with sauced vegetable choices.  Then again, you have other  tasty seasoned alternatives from Green Giant to keep your dieting menu interesting so you don't get bored with what's on your plate.

Do look into Green Giant's wonderful selection of  frozen vegetable varieties and feel good about eating healthy and dieting again. 

Connect with Green Giant on their website, Facebook, and Twitter.

In addition to free product coupons, I also received an insulated tote, a water bottle, a dieting journal, and an Amazon gift card.

NEW Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme Cereal Review

*Disclaimer:  The information and products have been provided by General Mills through MyBlogSpark to facilitate this review.*

General Mills and MyBlogSpark sent me their new Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme Cereal to review along with a cereal dispenser and two cereal-to-go containers.  

This new breakfast cereal is made from 100% whole grains with at least 14 grams of whole grain per serving and just 9 grams of sugar per serving along with calcium, vitamin D, and 10 other important vitamins and minerals.

If you happen to love the taste of Cookies 'n' Creme ice cream, you need to try this cereal because it is quite delicious.  When I originally looked at the box, I half-suspected it would have been geared for children as one of those overly sweet cereals.  However, I was wrong because this has just the right amount of sweetness without making you feel as if you just ate a bowl of sugar. 

The size of the chocolate and vanilla balls were perfect without being too large.  They also had a nice texture when crunched instead of any hardness.  Furthermore, these cereal balls held up well in milk without dissolving into mush before you finish eating or discoloring your milk.

We did like this new General Mills Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme Cereal very much!  

We also got a cereal dispenser to store the product. However, the cereal was so good it never made it to the container.  

Listen up, readers, because you can save $1.10 with this online coupon   for one box of Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme Cereal!
