Meijer Stores and Produce For Kids http://www.afewfriesshort.com/meijer-stores-and-produce-for-kids/#utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=meijer-stores-and-produce-for-kids http://www.afewfriesshort.com/meijer-stores-and-produce-for-kids/#comments Sat, 22 Sep 2012 03:23:51 +0000 Toni-Lynn http://www.afewfriesshort.com/?p=2065

Meijer and Produce for Kids are teaming up to host the second annual Healthy Schools, Healthy Minds campaign. Through September 29th, Meijer shoppers can contribute to this wonderful cause and support their local schools! How? Simple! By adding produce to their Meijer shopping lists! Participating fresh fruit and vegetable suppliers will make a donation to DonorsChoose.org based on how much of their fresh you eat! DonorsChoose.org supports local classroom projects.

Keep your eyes peeled for the Produce for Kids display which features your kids favorite Sprout show characters! One of my favorites, LazyTown™ and Noodle and Doodle. You can find these displays in the produce section at your local Meijer store. The more items shoppers add to their shopping lists, the more local classrooms will benefit!

Meijers is also featuring the Ideal Meals™ program from Produce for Kids in the produce department. Ideal Meals cards provide 12 quick, easy, and healthy chef-created/dietitian-approved complete meal solutions for breakfast, lunch, dinner and desserts. I have included some  of the new delicious and nutritious fall inspired Ideal Meals recipes from Produce for Kids below.

Slow Cooker Veggie Lasagna

Lentil & Veggie Soup

Apple Pear Crumble

Splash it on and Step it Up with Nakano http://www.afewfriesshort.com/splash-it-on-and-step-it-up/#utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=splash-it-on-and-step-it-up http://www.afewfriesshort.com/splash-it-on-and-step-it-up/#comments Sat, 23 Jun 2012 04:30:45 +0000 Toni-Lynn http://www.afewfriesshort.com/?p=2054


For awhile now, I have been making much better choices but I still refuse to eat a plate of plain lettuce and call it dinner. I am also trying more and more to get better eating habits instilled in the boys. They are still little boys but I do what I can :) I happy to report that I have officially lost 10 lbs! Healthier eating is playing a huge part in that. This is a hard obstacle  for me since I really love food!

As I have mentioned in the past, I am a Mizkan Blogger Advocate, and in the time I have been partnering with them, I have falling in love with the line of Nakano Splash products. Because of this, I am so excited to tell you about their new summer challenge! It’s called the Nakano Splash it On, Step it Up.  This new campaign is to help you move your butt a little more this summer and make healthier eating choices. I am not a big vegetable eater but they want to help me too! I would love to say that I want to make Mom proud and eat my vegetables but, it’s very difficult to me. I am an extremely picky eater.

Are you a picky eater too? Do you want to eat healthier? Need a kick in the butt? (You know you do!) Head over to the Nakano Facebook Page and check it out! Like them for the latest on the sweepstakes. It’s your chance to win great prizes including a year  long gym membership or 6 personal training sessions. Join the thousands of people who will be tracking their steos on the Step It Up Step-O-Meter!
