Finding Good Snacks {a Green Giant Surprise}

March 13, 2013 By Shannah 2 Comments

We’re a family of snackers.

When I pick my kids up from school and daycare in the afternoon, they immediately ask for a snack. So, I pack their snack in my lunch bag each morning to make sure I have something with me.
If we are headed out somewhere, we don’t leave home without our trusty snack bag either because someone will surely want a snack while we are gone.

No snack = lots of whining and complaining.

I always feel a little worried that they snack too much and don’t eat enough at meals! But, then I figure it is a phase and that their grazing will subside later in life. So, for now, snacks are a way of life for us.  I just try to make sure the snacks they eat are good snacks with nutritional benefits.

Our snacking habits are why I was so excited to hear that Green Giant {think vegetable Green Giant!} had a GIANT surprise: new veggie chips in two different flavors.

To say my kids descended on them is kind of an understatement. Mathlete did his fair share of eating them too!

E’s favorite was definitely the sweet potato chips. They are made with real sweet potatoes and very lightly salted with sea salt!

He kept grabbing the bag from me to get more.
With 14 grams of whole grains and 40% less fat than traditional chips, I didn’t stop him! It was definitely a great alternative to some other snacks he might beg for.

H wanted the veggie tortilla chips all to herself.

She loved the mild cheese flavor they had. I loved that she was getting 17 grams of whole grains + no artificial flavors in her snack.

Ok, I’ve told you all about those delicious chips and how they are a great healthy alternative to typical potato chips.
It gets better…I am going to tell you how to save $.85 off a bag of the chips so you can try them yourself. Simply click here for the coupon and head to the store.  Go ahead and try these good snacks for yourself!

Now that you know that Green Giant has a surprise talent {making delicious veggie chips}, check out the other surprise talents that Green Giant has unearthed. Then, show the Giant your surprise talent on their Facebook page.
