Hunt's #Manwich : A Healthy Meal Solution

This post brought to you by Manwich. All opinions are 100% mine.

Full serving of vegetables in every meal is the basic and most important goal that parents want to accomplish for the family. For a working parent, that's a tough work don't you think? How can we balance being a loving parent and a busy career person? Is there an easy preparation to achieve that goal so that our family can eat healthy and most importantly happy with what they eat? I tell you what, there is an easy way through Manwich Recipes.

My husband loves #sloppyjoe's and I am so grateful for that because that simply means, easy meal fixes and healthy too.  Did you know that Hunt's #Manwich has a full serving of vegetables and no preservatives? And not ony that, Manwich is a healthy sauce because it has no artificial flavor so; it is really good and a healthy meal solution for the family.

#Manwich has 3 flavors: Thick and Chunky, Bold, and Original. I really can't tell which among the three is the famly's favorite. The flavors are so good and we really can't tell the difference. Everyone agrees that Manwich is too delicious to resist. Today, I made a bite size turkey patties and sauteed the pattie with fresh red and green bell peppers. When the pattie was golden brown, I added the Manwich sauce. Oh my goodness, the smell is appetizing! Using the hotdog bun, check out the sloppy joe photo below. It's a yummy goodness meal that my husbad truy enjoys.

 

I have a confession to make. I love carbohydrates and I eat rice a lot. A single bun is no good with my appetite so; everytime I make a sloppy joe for my husband, mine is in a bowl and I eat it with rice. That to me is a hearty meal and that makes me a  happy camper. And yes, I have a good appetite but, I am petite and weighs a 103 lbs. Don't be surprise! I just eat a lot and I simply like Manwich too.

Anyway, have you seen the Manwich TV Ads? Check it out now. If you have Manwich in your pantry, fixing a great and healthy meal is so easy. Your picky eaters in the famiy will surely love it as well.

Beanfields Bean and Rice Chips

Most of us patronized products that are "Made in the USA" for one good reason: quality. When it comes to food, we are assured on food safety because it passed the standard of the FTC's "Made in the USA" policy. The products below are farmed and made in the USA.Few days ago, I was so delighted to receive a full box of Beanfields Crispylicious Bean and Rice Chips products for free. My husband and I enjoyed munching the chips for days and we both agreed that Pico de Gallo flavor is our favorite chips. It is not the typical chips that we used to eat because the color is different but, the taste is great. It is super crunchy, gluten-free, corn-free and non GMO verified product. It is a healthy snack because its main ingredients are: beans, rice and sunflower oil.During the Natural Products Expo West 2012 which was held in California, Beanfields was the winner for "Best Show" while Beanfields Nacho Chips got the top honor for Best New Vegan Snack Product. It deserves to win because the taste is really good in fact; one of our friends came by to visit us and loves the Nacho chips the most.

Bean rice chips are allergy-friendly food. They come in five flavors which my husband and I had the pleasure of tasting them all. Choose from these flavors: naturally unsalted, sea salt, sea salt and pepper, and pico de gallo and vegan nacho. You should check out their Website for more information on how to order their chips.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Cafe' du Monde Coffee

Have you been to Louisiana? I've been to this state as far as Metairie when I had my appointment for greencard. It was stormy but, when its' ceased, we went to New Orleans to have a cup of coffee and a beignets, my favorite at Cafe' du Monde.Right now, I miss beignet but, not so much with the coffee because you know why? Hubby bought 10 cans of Cafe du Monde coffee back to Florida. Bringing home the feel of French Quarter aroma.

Chocolate Birthday Cake from Publix

My husband bought this chocolate flavored cake at our local Publix Supermarket. He actually ordered it the day before my birthday so; this cake was made especially for me. I am not a fan of cake and ice cream but, I admit that this is really a good cake. I ate three slices of this cake yesterday *wink*!

Two of our friends from Orlando came in to see us and we served them this cake and they love it. We just hang out and did our short karaoke then, played the bowling using the Wii ... such a fun day for me.

Quaker Soft Baked Bar: Cinnamon Pecan Bread

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Quaker Oats. All opinions are 100% mine.

I love cinnamon bread and with pecan in it, my day would be alright. When I am busy working and trying to accomplish my online tasks, I stay in my office all day and will never have a regular meal until such time that I am done. I ate wholesome food but, those that I can fix easy such as oat meal, fruit bars, breakfast snack and ready to eat fruits. I would eat them in my office while working. My pantry has full of fruit bars and healthy snacks which I needed to fill me up when I am busy.

I grow up with Quaker products and was delighted to hear that there is a new Quaker Soft Baked Bar available in the market. It has two flavors and both are my favorite: cinnamon pecan and banana nut bread. As you can see in the picture above, cinnamon pecan bread is not only delicious but nutritious as well. It is a protein bar with vitamins which is needed to give us the energy to keep going.

When I am not working, my husband and I love to hang out on the beach. I always bring breakfast bars because it is tasty and delicious. It can fill me up when I am hungry before meal time. The cinnamon bread flavor always smells good and delicious. My husband prefers this flavor too because of the cinnamon. Well, I like pecan so; cinnamon and pecan soft bake bar would be a tasty treat to try.

Caramel Popcorn

One of our friends gave us this caramel popcorn which has a Scouting Pictures on it. It is in commemoration of the U.S 100th year anniversary of scouting this 2010. I don't know so much about scouting here but I am sure that the objectives are the same. To develop the character (positively), embrace the citizenship and of course giving importance to personal fitness. The bottom idea mainly are to focus on God, country and self. Scouting is a holistic approach kind of organization.

The caramel popcorn taste heavenly. I love the packaging.
It's blurry because I let the camera so focus ... bad caption.

I took this with me during our 10 hour road trip to Biloxi. I like scouting activities. I am more into the group of boy scout than girl scout. In the Philippines, I am picked as the Kawan Leader or the Assistant Kawan Leader in my school. So, during investiture , I had so much fun handling the boy scouts. Actually, I handled KAB scouts, ages 6 to 8 and they are so cute specially when we do our marching activity and games.

Scout Oath (or Promise)
On my honor I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.

Scout Law

A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly,
courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty,
brave, clean, and reverent.
