Head Back To School With Nature’s Own #BTS

I received product for review purposes, all opinions are my own. I was provided with recipes and images.

It won’t be long and school will be in full swing! What does that mean for moms? That means early mornings to make sure the kids not only get a healthy breakfast, but they have a healthy lunch to carry with them. Growing up our main school lunches included a sandwich on white bread, some fruit, a veggie, and usually we purchased a milk from the lunch room.

White bread has always been my go to bread until we started eating healthy. Then I had to kiss the white bread goodbye and say hello to whole grain bread. My daughter didn’t mind whole grain, but she would often go to her Nanny’s for a sandwich because she had white bread. Recently, my family was sent some Nature’s Own products to try. We have had Nature’s Own bread before, but when the package came and I noticed a few products I never seen in the Nature’s Own line I was a bit ecstatic.

I had never seen Nature’s Own Cinnamon Raisin, of course I had never been looking for it either. I would always go grab my loaf of whole wheat and move away from that section of the store. I have to say this was heaven.

Yummy is all I can say, this loaf of bread didn’t last long in this house. Nature’s Own Cinnamon Raisin bread would make a wonderful french toast, sprinkle with a little powder sugar and who needs the syrup!

I then had to try this Whitewheat, could they have really made a white bread that was healthy! This was an awesome surprise, they did! Now for all those picky eaters young and old, we can fool them with Nature’s Own Whitewheat. This bread was so soft, when my daughter came home the first thing she said was “Good you got white bread” Haha what she doesn’t know won’t hurt her.

Nature’s Own has so many great products you can not only start your kids day off to a healthy start you can also end it in a healthy way. Check out some of these yummy foods you can make using Nature’s Own products.
