Favorite Healthy Treat

My friend Jonesey has had an ingenious week on her blog Jonesville. She has been hosting a Week O' Favorites. The comments have been very entertaining, both writing them and reading them... So here's my question for you...

What is your favorite healthy treat? And what about your kids' favorite treat? Please share!
As for me, I love, love, love dark cherries... even dried cherries... especially when they are covered in dark chocolate, but I'll enjoy them any way they come.

My children really enjoy string cheese. But Rainbow says her favorite snacky treat is Blueberry Yogurt. And Spiderman pipes in with "Trail Mix!"


Happy Friday!

Hey Thanks AE! So glad you liked the week o'favorites. It was awful fun for me!

Banjo loves clementines. LOVES them. Super T loves Pears. They do love them some serious fruit salad. Which is super handy for me! Chop up some fruit and Bam, you have a fruit salad. Ladybug enjoys more than her fair share of cheese for a snack.

Thanks!!

I have to ditto the cherries, they are my best replacement for m 'n ms. Or frozen blueberries with milk. Yum me.

My current favorite healthy snack (it's become of bit of an afternoon ritual for me) is to mash up a ripe banana and vigorously stir in a huge scoop of natural peanut butter. It's like smooth, creamy, sweet comfort food. Doodle would probably 2nd that as his favorite. Carman keeps it simple with an apple or orange. And Sudoku LOVES raw carrots. Cheese is also popular around here.

Dark Chocolate, of course! :)

I just bought some Ghiradheli squares last night on clearance 50% off. They contain 60% cacao and hit the spot when you need a little chocolate in your life! :)

I would have to say golden raisins and almonds mixed together :).

Thanks for following my blog! I couldn't agree more with your blog name, "Health Begins with Mom". It is so true and I take it seriously. It is so nice to network with like-minded women.

God Bless,
