Big G and Yoplait Giveaway- $25 Publix gift card

Disclosure: The information and prize pack have been provided by General Mills through MyBlogSpark.

We all know breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Even if it is as simple as a bowl of cereal or a cup of yogurt, you must eat something to start your day the right way. I always keep Yoplait Greek yogurt around as a quick option for busy mornings, which is almost every morning! One thing that I learned from a friend was adding Cheerios to it. It is such a yummy combination and is very satisfying for breakfast and sometimes, even for lunch or a snack.

Check out these great combinations: 

Yoplait Greek Blended Coconut + Banana Nut Cheerios = feels like you’re on the beach!

Yoplait Greek Blended Vanilla + Chocolate Cheerios = tastes like an ice cream twist!

Yoplait Greek Blended Blueberry + Frosted Cheerios = blueberry pie!

Yoplait Greek Blended Pineapple + Fruity Cheerios = tropical taste!

My latest food obsession

I am the type of person that when I taste something that I love I tend to go crazy with it. Don't worry, it is not nachos. I have become obsessed with Greek yogurt! I tried the Yoplait brand a few weeks ago (strawberry) and fell in love. Now I know that Greek yogurt is nothing new. I have had it in the past and was not too crazy about it. I found it to be way too tart. Now it seems that so many brands are popping up with their version. I tried Fage in the plain variety and used it in place of sour cream on my nachos. It was amazing! I actually prefer it over traditional sour cream. So now I am coming up with a long list of foods I want to prepare using Greek yogurt.... potato salad, dips, mac and cheese, pasta salad, cheesecake......

I'm glad it's a healthy choice since I love it so much. Even the husband is on board! He has warned me that I better not eat it too often since I tend to eat things to the point of hating them :)

So are you a Greek yogurt lover? How do you like it best?

This is what happens when you open the fridge

No matter how many times in a day we open the refrigerator, this is what William does. He goes straight for the yogurt. I think if you gave him his way he would eat it all day long. It has gotten to the point where I look around to be sure he is not close by when I have to go in there! He can be down the hallway and the minute he hears the fridge door crack open he runs to see if he can bulldoze you down to get to his beloved yogurt!

I suppose there are worse things he could love this much!

Is there that one food or drink that your kid can't get enough of?

Yoplait Kids Get Active prize pack GIVEAWAY

I have been given the opportunity to try out Yoplait Kids yogurt. Funny thing is that I have been purchasing Yoplait yogurt since my girls were William's age. In those days they called them Yumsters. There is something about that smooth & creamy texture that is very appealing to kids (and also to mom). I really love the fact that my child is getting his much needed calcium and vitamin D in a very delicious way. We all know how important calcium is for building strong bones! Also Yoplait kids yogurt has 25% less sugar than the average leading kids yogurts.

Look at little yogurt mouth :)

I really love the fact that Dora the Explorer along with her friends are featured characters on the containers. I think this really adds to the "kid-friendly" nature of this product. Another plus is that Yoplait Kids offers the Box Tops for Education coupons on the outer packaging.



Along with sampling the yogurt, I received this fantastic Get Active prize pack which includes a travel cooler (to take your yogurt on the road), a jump rope, a water bottle and an outdoor game set that includes a beach ball, paddle ball, Jai-Ali and a Frisbee. These items are great for outdoor play and help encourage children to stay active and healthy. I know my family will enjoy these items for the Spring and Summer.
