In this house I have a tween who loves the style bento snacks, my husband loves snacking on nuts and I love fresh fruits – we all love cheese! It is like Naturipe Snacks™ were made just for us!

When these snacks arrived, my tween was hovering (as he does when he sees food coming out of a box or bag) and immediately grabbed a Naturipe Boost Bento that had strawberries. I had no idea a strawberry could excite him so much until I accepted his ask to try them right away. Those strawberries were the freshest I have ever tasted. It was a fight on who could get their hands on that variety until they were gone.

A post about apples. This is new to me but very much needed. There is not a sweeter treat then a crisp apple full of flavor…until it browns on you. It doesn’t take long for most apples to brown either. Then it is a bummer when you are like me and eat with your eyes so if it is brown – apples, bananas, potatoes I don’t crave them anymore and choose another food. Opal® apples are a game changer and now they have kids packs available.

Opal apples are non-browning, non GMO and so full of sweet flavor! They are yellow and have a bit of a floral aroma making them perfect for baking, but only if you love the smell of apples baking in your kitchen!

Because Opal apples don’t easily brown they are great to last in salads, to cut up with dips for kids snacks they can can come and go to in the afternoon and their aromas are great for baking as I mentioned already.

Opal apples are available at select locations across the USA and Canada. Visit the Opal apples website for more information, store locator and delicious recipes.
