Remaking Our Breakfasts – Yopa! Yogurt

March 11, 2013 By Shannah Leave a Comment


I go to work super early in the morning {like always before the sun is up!} and no one else in my house is awake.  I try to squeeze every  last minute of sleep I can out of the night so I don’t allow a lot of time for preparing breakfast.  In fact, many mornings, I don’t even remember breakfast until I am already at work and then I turn to something super unhealthy in the cafe.  Not good!

One of my missions for this year was to eat healthier.  That  meant bringing healthier foods into our home for myself and my children.   They, like me, don’t have a lot of time to fit in breakfast either.

I’ve tried healthy cereals and similar items but without much success.  Many yogurts tend to be so full of sugar that I have avoided them for the most part.   One day, in the store, I saw Yopa! yogurt and decided to check it out.

My daughter was excited to see Gabby Douglas, the gold medalist, on the front because she is really into gymnastics! {At 5, she is really picky eater so anything that gets her interested is ok with me!}  She was also excited that she could mix things into her yogurt too.  I gave her one of the flavors to try and she polished off the whole container.

The best part…she asked for it again the next day.  I felt good saying yes because I knew she was getting important stuff for her diet like:
– protein (the 3.5 oz cup has 13% of the recommended daily value)
– calcium
– 5 cultures and 3 probiotics

I grabbed one of the cups along with a slice of toast on my way to work one morning.  It was the perfect size and made a super convenient option for me.  Bringing my own breakfast means I have so much more control over my calories AND keeps me out of the cafe.  Overall, starting off the day right with a balanced breakfast, helps me stay on track for the rest of the day!

Speaking of balance, gold medalist Gabby Douglas is an expert, and she’s challenging you to take the Yopa! Taste Challenge where you can win a variety of prizes, including $10,000! Just “like” Yopa! on Facebook for a chance to win and to grab a coupon for $.50 (or more!) off one cup of Yopa! Authentic Greek Yogurt.

I was selected for participation in this campaign as a member of Clever Girls Collective.
