Healthy Food for Toddlers (#giveaway)

So my little Hannah is officially a toddler. As in, she toddles her way around the house all day long. Crawling? That's for babies, this girl is moving! And growing faster than I like, actually. And she is now eating everything. Well, except for peanuts. We still haven't tested those out yet. But everything else—she isn't picky. In fact, she loves it all. Which makes my job a lot easier come meal time. Unless we're on the go. Sometimes I don't have time to pack a meal for her, sometimes I can't find anything on the restaurant menu. This is where Happy Family saves me.

I like to stock my kitchen with a few grab-and-go items so that, if I can't make it for her myself, I know she'll have some healthy foods to eat no matter what. So when Happy Family offered to send me coupons for the above, I couldn't say no. Obviously Hannah was thrilled, too. Photo shoot outtake:

She absolutely loved everything. And I loved that it was all organic, with lists of ingredients full of items that I could A) pronounce and B) define. Take a look at these Happy Munchies: Rice Cakes.

They made for an excellent addition to a post-nap milk snack. Just three make a serving size. While they look to be a Cheddar flavor, they're actually carrot-based! And crunchy, which was fun for her. (And, in the name of full-disclosure...I might have eaten one or two myself. Love me a rice cake!)

She was also a huge fan of the Happy Yogis.

Banana Mango is always a hit in our house, although I'm certain she'd devour the Mixed Berry and Strawberry flavors, too. Just like the rice cakes, these make a nice addition to snack time. And theyr'e super portable. Unlike traditional yogurt, which can be messy when you're on-the-go.

Speaking of on-the-go, we ran some errands a few weekends ago in a town about 45 minutes from our house, which forced us to enjoy a few meals outside of the home. I packed a Happy Tot Plus squeeze pack for lunch, which went nicely with a grilled chicken kid's meal from Chick-fil-a. (<-don fast="" food="" good="" i="" in="" indulge="" it="" judge="" me.="" nbsp="" occasion.="" on="" only="" p="" place="" s="" so="" t="" the="">

So with the addition of her milk, Hannah was able to enjoy a gourmet meal of sorts! I mean, it's not like Chick-fil-a has a Kale, Apple, Mango option on their menu—I might have also sample this out of pure curiosity. It sounds like an odd combination, but it was quite tasty. There might be a kale, apple and mango salad in my future someway, somehow.

I digress.

Out of all the products Hannah tested, I think her favorite...mine, too...came because of the Sweet Potato, Apple, Carrot and Cinnamon Happy Tot pouch. Hello, pancakes:


With the coupons, Happy Family sent me a few recipe cards to play with (one of which was for the pancakes above...which were clearly well-received.). As you can imagine, each recipe incorporates a Happy Family product. So here's the thing: Even if you don't have kids, you can still enjoy Happy Family products! Well, at least the pouches. It's like baking with applesauce, really.

And yes, their recipes are just as healthy as their products. From the website: "When you feed your child Happy products, every bite really counts. We work with pediatricians and nutritionists to develop our recipes, starting with the very best organic and 100% natural fruits, vegetables, dairy, meats, and grains."

But that's enough about that, let's get to the giveaway. Oh, yes...a giveaway! Happy Family is more than willing to provide one of you with a Happiest Toddler package much like I received:

So, you'll get a Happy Family tote and coupons for free samples of the products shown above, plus Happy Family recipes (including the aforementioned pancake recipe). Unfortunately, this giveaway is only open to residents of the United States. If that's you, please leave a comment on this post—describe your tot's favorite on-the-go snack—to enter. It's that easy.
