A total mom win!
There are a few parenting wins I picked up from my parents. Of course, as a child, I didn’t realize how valuable they would be, but now as a mom, I do. One of these wins is getting your kids to eat wholesome and nutritious snacks and cereals.
We always had a box of Cheerios in the kitchen cabinet for breakfast or after-school munching when I was young. Hello, whole grains! Now, there’s always a box of Cheerios in my pantry and my kids enjoy them too, so things have come full circle.
I’m feeling a little nostalgic! I even remember when Honey Nut Cheerios came out! My brothers and I loved its honey and almond flavor. That’s why we find these Honey Nut Cheerios Protein Bites so good.
How to Make Honey Nut Cheerios Protein Bites
