Feel-Good Snacks For The Mommy In A Rush & A Giveaway!

As a food blogger, I would love to present myself as a person who has a tidy, picture-perfect kitchen and oodles of freshly baked brownies or some homemade granola filled with the dried exotic fruit of the month always on hand for snacking.

Let's be serious.  That isn't happening.  Not with a 3 year old, 2 cats and now a puppy running around the house.  Some days I am lucky to get supper on the table let alone snacks.  If I don't snack, I become a bear (and not a friendly one) so I always have some portable snacks on the counter, in my purse, car, pocket... you get the idea.

As a Life Made Delicious Connector, I was lucky enough to receive a variety of Fibre 1 & Nature Valley snacks to try.  We loved each and every one of them... hubby reaching for the brownies, and me, oh I am ALL about those sweet/salty/crunchy/chewy pretzel bars and the granola thins. This is what I received to sample, and pay attention, because I'm going to let you have a chance to win some too!

Nature Valley Granola Thins: These delicate toasted granola squares have a super crispy texture and they are rich & creamy while only 90 calories. They come in both Chocolate or Peanut Butter flavours.

Fibre 1 Brownies: Simply a delicious 110 calories brownie! Comes in two flavours: Chocolate Peanut Butter or Chocolatey Fudge. You can find them in the granola bar aisle.

Fibre 1 Chocolate Caramel & Pretzel Bars: A great-tasting high fibre bar with the perfect trio of chocolate, sweet caramel and salty pretzel crunch with only 100 calories. It’s also a simple way to get 20% of your daily value of fibre.
