Make #TysonGoodness Mini Chicken Sandwiches For Simply Delicious Snacks Your Family Will Love #CBias

My son had school today and, as usual, came home starving. I knew we'd have to eat a snack since it would be several hours before my husband returned from work. This was the perfect time to give Tyson Mini Chicken Sandwiches a try! If one kid eats, both of them have to, so it's perfect that the sandwiches are packaged in twos.

When at Walmart, we actually purchased everything we needed for a perfect lunch, small dinner or snack with the Tyson Mini Chicken Sandwiches. Since my husband is a huge chicken sandwich eater, I figured he would be more than happy to give these a try when he got home, too. At Walmart, they had 2 different types of the chicken sandwiches- with or without cheddar cheese. Since all of us in this house love our dairy, I sprung for the Minis with cheese! We had quite a shopping adventure at Walmart, which you can see more about on the CTM Google+ Photo Album!

I purchased Lay's BBQ Potato Chips to eat with the Tyson Mini Chicken Sandwiches. Those are Liam's favorites! Since the cheese was already on the sandwiches, I popped them into the microwave for less than 2 minutes, let them sit for a few minutes and they were ready for the boys to try. All of the directions are printed on each of the packages, which made things even easier. You just leave the sandwiches in the wrap, put them in the microwave and follow the directions. Simple!

Almost done!
Did Tyson Mini Chicken Sandwiches pass the taste test? Absolutely! Even my pick eater, Liam, gobbled his down without hesitation. Josiah did, too, and even asked to eat another one for lunch tomorrow. I was so happy to learn yet another quick and easy food the kids love. My husband also had nothing but good things to say about the mini sandwiches. Our entire family enjoyed eating them, but I think I got the most out of them-- an entire family fed for less than $6 and in only a few minutes. I also love how moist and fresh the sandwiches are. Since they are kept inside the packaging for cooking, the sandwich retains all of the moisture, so the bread is so soft and fluffy.
See the melted cheese? Delicious!
Like I said, with the holidays nearing, I have been so busy wrapping presents, sending Christmas cards and trying to get everything organized before the big day! I love for the kids to have a good breakfast, snack, lunch and dinner, but this has been tough and will be especially this week. Tyson has hit a home run with these Mini Chicken Sandwiches! Families will love how delicious they are and moms will especially love how quickly they are ready.

There are certain foods I always associate with the fall season and one of my favorites just happens to be caramel apples. This year I had the opportunity to review Marzetti Caramel Dips and jumped at the chance!

 My Thoughts

Last year, after buying a caramel apple at a fair for about $5, I thought it was completely ridiculous and decided to make my own from scratch with Josiah (my 4 year-old). I quickly realized why they cost so much- the whole process creates a sticky-icky mess... and, when the kids start eating them, there is an even bigger mess. This year, I thought Marzetti Caramel Dips would be a perfect alternative and it was a definite hit at our house.

Ritz Crackerfuls Multigrain Review: A Delicious Snack In Between Meals

http://instoresnow.walmart.com/uploadedImages/In_Stores_Now/New_In_Stores/01_KFT_20510_KraftSnacks_N_IAB_150x110_MiniRect_US_ENG_01.jpg
Sometimes that amount of time between lunch and dinner can be a little long for kids... and for me. To tell the truth, I've found myself sneaking chocolates and other bad snacks I shouldn't be eating. I'm sure the kids have, too. Oops!

Thanks to the One2One Network, I had the opportunity to try out Ritz Crackerfuls Multigrain as an afternoon in-between meals snack. It's funny because my package arrived right after naptime, when the kids are starting to get hungry again, so we dove right into them. They are much bigger than other cheese crackers I've tried in the past and definitely fill you up. Plus, they are seriously delicious. We received the Ritz Crackerfuls Multigrain Sharp Cheddar and, let me just say, the semi-sweet multigrain crackers mix perfectly with the sharp cheddar. I only opened one cracker at first and, after a few bites and the kids eating all of my cracker, I decided we needed to open another.

I am all for healthy snacks and Ritz Crackerfuls Multigrain is perfect to subdue our appetite between meals and it's enjoyable. What kinds of snacks do you serve in between meals for you and your children? What other snacks do you recommend for us to try?
