Use code STYLEDUJOUR to enjoy five meals for only $15 from Eat Pakd
As a registered dietitian nutritionist, I’m often asked what kind of food I feed my kids.
Sugar-free? Impossible and not enjoyable. Hello, I’m married to a man from Wisconsin. We love our dairy foods, thanks.
All organic? Not necessary, in my opinion. I spend more on some organic produce and milk, but I don’t purchase only organic foods.
All homemade? No! I do what I can and stock up on frozen and pre-packaged ingredients and meals to help save me time. Don’t get me wrong though. I have high-standards for any pre-made foods. I look for simple ingredients lists (“OK, these are all ingredients I have in my pantry at home”) with no added sugar (different than foods naturally containing sugar like dairy) or added colors or preservatives.
Enter, EatPakd, the Chicago-based meal delivery service available in the Mid-West serving up wholesome meals for kids crafted by award-winning chefs. Their meals are free from preservatives and added sugar, and are made with some organic, hormone-free and GMO-free ingredients. I love that they cater to all by offering vegetarian choices, customizable options and all recipes are nut-free.
My family and I first discovered the beauty behind EatPakd in January and I’ve been raving about it ever since which is why i’m thrilled to be working with EatPakd this month to offer one of my readers an entire month of FREE EatPakd meals!
UPDATE! Thanks to everyone for entering the giveaway for one month of delicious meals from Eat Pakd! The contest is now closed and I will contact the winner later this week. Yay!
XO,

New Target Baby Box Review + How to Get Your Hands on The Next One![Shake pops all around! [ad] The kids love this simple frozen fruit pop made with Healthy Height shake mix that contains nutrients kids need to grow. As a mom and a dietitian, I like that it is a clinically studied and pediatrician developed shake protein mix that is a great option for picky eaters or kids in need of a protein boost. With flavors like vanilla and chocolate or a plain variety, these shake mixes can be used to make creamy beverages or added to baked goods, dinner entrees or snacks like these frozen fruit pops. Here's how to make these:
Blend 1.5 cups coconut milk with 1 cup of frozen fruit (I used cherries and strawberries) and four scoops of Healthy Height Vanilla powder. Pour in ice pop molds, freeze (for at least four hours) and enjoy!
Healthy Height also has protein bars that are gluten-free and made with no artificial flavors that make for convenient options for packed lunches and busy days on the go. If you're looking for options to add more nutrients or protein into your kids' meals and snacks, make sure to check out Healthy Height shake mix and bars!

I would use it to take to work when I was in a rush so I wasn’t ordering food in all of the time!
I would throw one in the bag that I take to the sitters everyday for Declan. Currently, I’m scrambling throwing random foods in a bag.
One of my three kids would be so lucky!! I think we’d take it to eat al fresco at the park or beach in our town. Nothing like eating out doors!
My daughter and I would share. Some for her school lunches and some for my work lunches and snacks 🙂
This full time working mama of soon to be two under two loves them for school lunches!! 🥐🍓🍞🥞🥗🍗
