A Pizza For One With Hormel #HormelFamily

October 28, 2015October 28, 2015 - brandy3 3 Comments

Disclosure: I’ve partnered with Hormel Foods as part of the Hormel Foods Extended Family Blogger Program. Throughout the year I’ll be receiving product, coupons, giveaways and promotions. However, no payment was given or expected for posting about the program, and as always, all opinions given here are fully my own.

I love Pizza, who doesn’t? I often find that pizza places can be to expensive and even buying frozen t the store can be costly. Plus I like my pizza fresh and not super greasy.

My mom would make French Bread pizza when I was younger and I just took the idea and ran with it.

All you really need for you pizza for one is
Sub Rolls
Pizza sauce (any will do)
Mozzarella Cheese
Hormel Pepperoni
and other topping you would like.

Just cut the sub roll so it’s spread open.
Add Pizza Sauce, spread on inside of roll
Cover with your mozzarella cheese
Add your Hormel Pepperoni and other toppings

Your oven should be set at 400 and bake for 10 minutes.

I love the pizza sub actually more than a slice of pizza. It comes out super crispy and delicious. You can choose to fold it over and have it like a pizza sandwich or just as is.

Have you ever tried a pizza sub or french bread pizza?

As a mother of three I am always looking for healthy snacks on the go. Everyday my kids get home from school they want a snack, we go to the park snack. So I always try and make sure i have something healthy to give them.

Atkins Harvest Trail Bars are perfect for on the go snacking. The Harvest Trail bars are full of protein and fiber while keeping net carbs and sugars in check. Each bar contains less than seven grams of net carbs, less than four grams of sugar and no artificial colors, flavors, preservatives or sugar alcohols.

The new bars focus more on the rich taste of chocolate, yogurt, fruit and nuts. They come in 4 varieties including Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Caramel,Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter, Vanilla Fruit, and Nut and Dark Chocolate Cherry & Nuts.

These bars are for everyone to snack on. I was able to tale with Collette Heimowitz, VP Nutrition at Atkins, and learned so much about these new bars. This is their first non-weight loss product, but it still holds true to their mission of low-carb eating.
The bars are very good, even my kids love them. The varieties all feature chocolate or vanilla so my children think they are a dessert.

The Atkins Harvest Trail Bars are available at retailers nationwide now.

A pack of 5 ranges around $7.

Halloween Fun With Sour Jacks

October 20, 2015October 20, 2015 - brandy3

Disclosure: No Formal compensation was received for this post. Samples were received. All opinions are 100% my own.

I am not a baker or a good cook by any means, but when it comes to trying to make fun things with my kids I am all for it. We decided to make some fun Halloween inspired goodies using Sour Jacks candy.

They have 4 fun varieties in their Sour Jacks line, Watermelon, Wildberry, Lemonade and Green Apple.

Again please realize I am not a foodie, these were just fun projects for my kids and I.

First we decided to do just a plain chocolate chip cookie with fun halloween color chips with a Sour Jack on top. The most simple but fun recipe.

Next we made a batch of brownies and some chocolate pudding. We took brownie and covered it in pudding, put some fun candy eyes on. Then we took Green Apple Sour Jack and cut it in half for the fangs. You have a cute Vampire pudding brownie.

We also made a healthy snack, and I will actually be making a lot of these for Halloween meals. They are so sweet and fun. Everyone makes cute little pumpkins with Mandarin oranges and celery. I switched out the celery for half a Green Apple Sour Jack, and it still looks perfect.

With Halloween coming up what fun creations can you make using Sour Jacks candy? Enter to win some of your own Sour Jacks candy on their Facebook page.

Back To School with Hormel Party Trays #HormelFamily

September 25, 2015September 25, 2015 - brandy3 1 Comment

We are finally into a schedule with back to school. It took a while, as its a new area and new school, so took a while. We are mixing between the kids eating at school and packing lunches.

To start the school year off I wanted to get the kids something special to pack in their lunch. It may seem a bit odd, but my kids love Cheese and crackers, pepperoni and cheese with crackers etc. I bought a Hormel Family Party Tray to celebrate back to school. I originally bought it as snack at home after school, but the kids ripped right into to it and used it for their lunches.

Packing everything they could between the cheese, crackers, salami, and pepperoni. The entire party tray was gone in 2 days just from them using it for packing lunches.

We have always loved Hormel party trays, they are the perfect fr snacking, parties, or any occasion. Party trays come with a variety of cheeses, crackers, salami and thick pepperoni. They are so delicious.

Have you ever tried a Hormel Party Tray?

School is just getting back in session in a few states. Here in Connecticut the kids are already on their fourth day of school, and my husband starting a new job. I wasn’t sure if they would come home in a good mood or bad mood, since everything is so new. I decided I would set up some snacks for them when they walked in from their first day.

The Popcorn Factory sent us a University Snacks Stash to review, and it was perfect for the first day blues.

The University Snacks Stash contains:
Buffalo ranch popcorn
Sour green apple popcorn
Cheese popcorn
White cheddar
Mini pretzels
Sour sassy taffy
Sour gummy stars
Dry Roasted Peanuts
Chocolate Chip Cookies
assorted Jelly Belly Beans

It was the perfect snack for the first day blues. The favorite was the candy apple popcorn, they said it tasted just like one of their favorite candies. My favorite was the gummy stars, they were very sweet and good.

Popcorn Factory is the perfect place to find gifts for everyone or just simply have a great snack center piece for a gathering. They have options for every occasion, visit Popcorn Factory to see the all the varieties.

Lloyds Flame Seared Babyback Ribs Review #HormelFamily

August 12, 2015September 25, 2015 - brandy3

Lloyds has a new line of ribs to add to their product line. Flame seared baby back ribs are the perfect choice for Summer BBQs. Unlike Lloyds regular ribs, the flame seared are more juicy and a bit spicy.

The flame-seared dry rub pork ribs use the finest quality cuts of meat. Enjoy the slow-simmered taste and open-fire flavor alongside green beans, corn on the cob or macaroni and cheese.

** These ribs were a little bit spicy but were oh so good. Match them up with a nice salad, corn on the cob and you have the perfect summer meal. Lloyds ribs are fully cooked already, so just follow the directions to heat up on the grill.

Whats your favorite style of ribs? Did you cook any this summer?

July is National Ice Cream Month and Baskin-Robbins, the world’s largest chain of ice cream specialty shops, is celebrating all month long by treating guests to fun special offers. Introducing a delicious lineup of OREO cookie-themed frozen treats, and providing guests with a sweet way to give back to their local communities.

This was our first visit to a Baskin Robbins and my kids just loved it. They had so many different varieties of ice cream and topping to choose from, plus the price was not bad at all.
We were admiring the cakes they had on display, they looked so yummy. My favorite was the Cookies N Cream ice cream cake, which features tons of oreo cookies.
Oreo N Cake is also the flavor of the month for July, which is a sweet combination of cake-flavored ice cream and oreo cookie pieces with chocolate cake batter flavored ribbon.

My kids each got a 2 scoop sundae with their favorite Ice cream and topping.

They picked out Snickers ice cream with gummy bears, chocolate ice cream with M&M’s and Cookies N Cream with M&Ms.

They absolutely loved it and had so much fun watching the guy make them in store. They each told the Baskin-Robbins employee what they wanted without any help and watched the creation happen.

I got a 2 scoop sundae supreme with Cookie dough ice cream and extra cookie dough pieces.

It was the best I ever had. The extra cookie dough pieces and the chocolate fudge and carmel made the sundae all come together. It was the perfect treat for a hot day.
