The Funky Monkey: A New Twist On Fruit

51sEEOeR4zL

The Funky Monkey- no, it’s not a Ben & Jerry’s ice cream flavor. It’s a nutritious and delicious snack! It’s the fruit that crunches! Funky Monkey freeze dried fruits flavors include Bananamon banana with cinnamon, Carnival Mix, Jivealime pineapple with lime and Purple Funk banana with acai.

Each package of Funky Monkey contains 3 out of 4 of the recommended daily servings of fruit. They are gluten-free and certified Kosher, 100% natural with no additives.

The kids will appreciate a new twist in their lunch box.  Instead of an apple or banana, treat them to Funky Monkey snacks once in awhile instead.  They will think they are getting a special treat but you will know that their nutritional needs are still being met.

Who doesn’t love a decadent piece of chocolate? Whether milk or dark, almond-encrusted or  covering gummi bears (my favorite!), I know I can never get enough of it. Now I’ve found even more to love. Even though I’ve always been a huge coffee fan, I recently discovered something that makes this daily indulgence even sweeter — Godiva’s coffee and cocoa line, both of which are delicious as frozen summer treats, as well. There’s the Godiva Chocolate Creme Coffee, the Milk Chocolate Cocoa Canister and the Premium Roast Coffee. This coffee is so good I drink it plain, no help needed. They make great gifts for fellow chocolate lovers, as well.

Healthy & Fast Food on The Go

How many times do you find yourself in line at the drive thru because you were out longer than planned and suddenly it was lunch time?  This happens to me more times than I would like to admit.  I love the new squeezable fruit pouches because they don’t need refrigeration and you don’t need to pack a spoon.  Just twist off the cap and squeeze!  These are the perfect no-mess, on-the-go snack for babies and toddlers.  Healthier than fries too!

Another useful tool for for on-the-go feedings is the Boon Squirt.  Store baby food in the handle and when feeding time arrives just give it a little squeeze to dispense it by the spoonful.  No need for a bowl!  It’s especially great for homemade baby food that isn’t sealed in a jar.

Having dry snacks such as cheerios or goldfish crackers on hand is always a good idea as well.  Plastic containers with lids such as the Boon Snack Ball are perfect for storing them.  This contraption gets bonus points because it’s fun to play with wether or not it contains snacks- perfect for distracting the kids in a pinch!
