I seriously had no clue Blue's Clues has been out 25 years now. I remember it from years ago and now that I have my own preschooler, we're back to revisiting childhood classics like Blue's Clues. With the recent revelation of Steve, it was kind of neat that they brought him and prior Blue's Clues hosts Steve and Joe.

Nutella is one of everyone's favourite spreads. Sometimes, I enjoy indulging in a simple treat of hazelnut chocolate sweetness. That's how this cookie recipe came to be. You'd be surprised at how quickly and easily these turned out. All you need is 6 simple ingredients. In efforts to make this delectable treat just a tad healthier and weigh a little less on my health conscience, I utilized Country Crock Light as a healthy substitute. It takes just as good with less calories!

One of my absolute favourite cookies are SnickerDoodles. I've always loved Cinnamon and put it in everything...french toast, coffee, hot chocolate, horchata... ev-ery-thing! I had a craving today and decided to whip some up with a bit of a variation. What resulted was some delectable Sugar-Free SnickerDoodle Chai Donut Holes -bite sized deliciousness!

I am always on the search for healthier snacks and alternatives because we all love to snack but I can't have chips everyday, now can I? That would be devastating to my health. So it was definitely interesting to find Calbee's Harvest Snaps. They offer 6 different flavors and are created from baked peas and lentils. Hold that thought...

Quick, easy #Turkey snacks & #Recipes from Jennie-O

Make the Switch
In this household, we love our nachos and tacos. We've always made our own tacos and ordered the Beef steak nachos from our favorite Mexican place. We've never really tried pre-packaged snacks and appetizers in the form of nachos and tacos before. Further, despite how much we loved the nachos, I am always reeling from the amount of calories in each order! Wouldn't it be awesome to find one with a healthier option?

Healthy #Halloween Alternatives & Snacking with Chia bars

Health Warrior Chia Bar Review
Always on the lookout for a healthy snack or treat, I am always trying out new things. Health Warrior did great in the naming department. With a name like that, it’s hard to turn away from it. Right? It says Health Warrior! The Chia Bar, in its new packaging above, really does a thing or too to help you stay fit this Halloween season and beyond. Instead of handing out sugar-filled treats, which I admit, I am guilty of loving…you could hand out healthy goodies that not only taste great but also keeps the trick-o-treaters healthy.

Getting ready for Hurricane Sandy with Del Monte #SmartSnack #CBias

Walmart
Hurricane Sandy is coming! Alright, part of me is excited but the sane part of me wants to make sure I'm prepared. I just got in from last night from a conference and had already made plans to go for a quick trip to Walmart to pick up some essentials that I needed. I already have lots of food and water but I wanted to grab some snacks, just in case. Why? I eat multiple small meals and snacks throughout the day. Despite my love for all things cheesy, healthy snacks are a big priority.

#Yoplait is #WeightWatchers approved! US 10/07 #MyBlogSpark

Yoplait endorsed by Weight Watchers
Mmmm...I love my yogurt! Did you know there's now a Weight Watchers approved yogurt? Yoplait Light and Yoplait Greek 100 now have 20 flavors for only 2 Weight Watchers® PointsPlus®value each. Love it! It's yogurt specific for those on Weight Watchers but for those of us not on Weight Watchers, it's an added bonus because it just seems that much better with the lower 100 calorie count. To make it even sweeter for you, we're doing a weekend flash giveaway!

Excuse me, could you pass the #beans? #Beanfields #Snacks #Review

I am always on the lookout for healthy snacks that satisfy the craving and don't add on the pounds. My latest venture took in to the realm of beans. Why beans? LOL, beans have high fiber and protein content and a low glycemic index. In plain terms, they're healthy and slowly release energy, which is a good thing. They are also more easily grown due to the decreased water requirement and last longer, even without being placed in the fridge. So, basically, I have a long-lasting, easy to grow crop that's also healthy for me.

#Sante #Nuts #Review



I seem to be on a roll with healthy snacks lately! Here's the latest one. Nuts carry a lot of good nutrients in them and are always a good, healthy snack. I was sent Roasted Salted Pecans, Garlic Almonds, Candied Walnuts, and Candied Pecans to try from Sante Nuts.

#Nonni's #Biscotti #Review


I was sent several Biscotti products from Nonni's to review. They looked so elegant, from the pictures on the packaging itself down to the very Biscotti. I know it sounds weird but I thought I was dining on some high-class snacks, LOL. Nonni's Biscotti originated all the way from Lucca, a gorgeous town in Italy that I have always wanted to visit. It involves a Grandma (Nonni) creating a biscotti to share with her family and friends and when Nonni arrived in America almost a century ago, she brought this family recipe with her.

#OldLondon #Snacks #Review


Ever crave for snacks? I do, on a regular basis, and I find it hard to resist reaching for those can of chips or those Cheetos. I have a super weakness for Cheetos. Once I grab a big bag, I can literally eat at least half of it...in one sitting. Then I get upset about it! LOL, so once in a while, its nice to have a healthy alternative to turn to instead. A snack that I won't feel guilty about.

#Wonka Exceptionals #Chocolate #Review

OH MY GOSH! Who loves chocolate? You're going to love this! When I was sent some of Wonka's Exceptionals Chocolate to try out, I melted when I opened my box of chocolates! In it contained some nommy flavors. There were 2 new flavors which included Triple Dazzle Caramel (milk chocolate filled with luscious caramel, dazzled with sea salt) and Fantabulous Fudge (milk chocolate stuffed with fudge). I also received Chocolate Waterfall (milk and white chocolate) and Scrumdiddlyumptious (chunks of toffee, crispies and peanuts in rich milk chocolate) to review.
