Busy Moms Need Healthy Snacks On The Go

written by Emily

Moms these days are super busy! I don’t have to tell you that. I have work deadlines and meetings, my oldest has a football game and driving lessons, middle boy has playdates and is in desperate need of a haircut. Youngest has a crazy school schedule, various therapies and more. We are always on the go. Many days I’m so busy I forget to eat lunch. Like, what?! Who forgets to eat?!

I was asked to take part in a delicious campaign with Hillshire Farms to taste their new snacking on the go line of products. Never one to turn down free food, I jumped on the chance to try them.

I picked up their Small Plates. Cheese, crackers and a meat. Protien, carbs, yum. I took one with me when I had a busy day of being a taxi for the kids and was so glad I did. I was able to snack in the car as I drove from one school to the next, playdate to doctor’s office, gym to back home.

It didn’t even feel like a snack, it felt like I should have had nice glass of wine with me because it was so decadent! Sadly I just had my water bottle, but later that evening, after the kids were in bed, I grabbed another one of the small plates, poured a glass of Malbec and turned on my guilty pleasure, Total Divas. The perfect end to the day and the perfect small portion so I wasn’t over indulging and eating an entire block of cheese, like I’m known to do. 😉

A little more about the small plates:

This is true snack craftsmanship. Four unique flavor combinations featuring our premium air-dried salame, natural cheese and toasted rounds with a touch of sea salt. Bite into inspired snacking.

Genoa Salame with Natural White Cheddar Cheese
Wine-Infused Salame with Natural White Cheddar Cheese
Italian Dry Salame with Natural Gouda Cheese
Hot Calabrese Salame with Natural Gouda Cheese

I have tried the Genoa Salame and Italian Dry with Gouda and both were so delicious. I wouldn’t have expected something this flavorful from an on-the-go type of snack. Even my kids love them, when I let them have a taste, which is rare because I don’t like to share!

You can find Hillshire Snacking products at your local grocery store. You can also follow them on Facebook.

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Hillshire Snacking. The opinions and text are all mine.

Emily is a mom to three very active boys. Her youngest is autistic so she is passionate about advocating for children and families on the spectrum. She attends more concerts than is humanly possible and takes some pretty amazingly blurry photos of said shows to prove she was there. Also, #hashtags are her favorite. #totes #noreally
