Breakfast of Champions!

Title of Product: Toasted Oat Cereal

Description: Whole Grain cereal

Why do you like it?
It is basic, tasty, convenient, and quick to pull together in the morning. It is your basic bowl of cereal but it keeps you full until lunch and doesn't have junk ingredients. Just add milk and you are ready to go. I get the store brand a lot for a lot less and it is just as good. I also squirt a little honey on top to add a little sweet flavor to it.

Tip: Makes for a great evening snack or add a handful to a smoothie for more fiber and substance

Where did you buy it? Publix & Target

About how much was it? Store Brand $2.49 for 15oz, Cheerios $3.19 for 14oz

Tienes Hambre? How about this beauty!










Title of Product: Mission Multi-grain Wraps

Description: Tortilla wrap

Why do you like it?
I am always looking for ways to insert more fiber and whole grain into my meals. These are great because the are big and not to grainy or have a lot of seeds. I don't like a lot of crunchy or bumpy stuff in my smooth food--it is a texture thing! These taste good and add more nutrition to your burrito meals.

Move over Bisquick!



















Title of Product: Hodgson Mill Insta-Bake

Description: Baking Mix

Why do you like it?
This is just like Bisquick but it is made with whole grain/whole wheat. I usually mix it 50-50 with bisquick to get a better flavor and texture for my preference. Using 100% Insta-bake will work just fine but the texture of the food is different. This is great for making pancakes or waffles. I usually add in a little flaxseed to get even more nutritional value into it.

Yummy Granola Bars!















Title of Product:
Quaker - Simple Harvest Granola Bars

Description: Mulit-grain Granola Bars

Why do you like it?
I needed a snack to keep at work that was nutritious and didn't have nuts and wasn't too hard to chew (I have currently braces). These are the cinnamon-brown sugar variety and they are tasty. They are full of oatmeal, wheat, barley, apples, cranberries, cinnamon, and brown sugar. All natural ingredients and they are soft and chewy. These taste great without all the junk!

Where did you buy it? Publix & Super Target

About how much was it? $3.59 (each box has a $1 coupon inside right now)

Love Bread - Hate things in my bread!















Title of Product:
Nature's Own Organic - Honey Wheat

Description: Loaf of bread

Why do you like it?
I have switched to whole grain bread in an attempt to eat healthier. One thing I keep finding is that most whole grain breads have things in them. I am a wonder-bread girl. The smoother and softer the better! This one is great. All the benefits of whole grain bread and natural ingredients along with a smooth texture. Bring on the PBJ's!
