I like to sleep in as long as possible, which usually means I’m scrambling around looking for a quick breakfast to down before heading off to work. Of course, I try to consider the most healthy breakfast options first and oatmeal has always been one of my top breakfast choices.
Did you know that
-*Nearly 60% of U.S. parents of children ages 3-17 admit that their child skips breakfast, with more than half of U.S. Moms wishing their child ate a more nutritious breakfast.-58% of U.S. Moms say they skip breakfast regularly.

I was recently given the opportunity to try the new Seneca Farms Oatmeal and Fruit Bowls. What’s awesome about these Oatmeal and Fruit Bowls is that they only require 45 seconds in the microwave! They are currently available in two flavors- Apple Cinnamon and Vanilla Peach {with Cranberry Apple & Maple & Brown Sugar soon to come!}.
So what did I think after trying them? Yum! Loved both flavors! I honestly didn’t have high expectations for these oatmeal bowls. I’ve microwaved oatmeal before and found it less than appealing {I’m a boil the water, then add the oatmeal kind of girl}! However, I found the texture and taste of the oatmeal to be quite tasty! I especially loved the REAL chunks of peaches and apples! I also love that it comes in an easy to travel with bowl. These would be great to pack on vacations for an easy hotel room breakfast.
Seneca’s Oatmeal & Fruit has no trans fats or cholesterol, and is a great source of Vitamin C. Seneca Farms Oatmeal & Fruit can be found nationally at Walmart and at a wide variety of retail grocery stores.
WIN IT!
One reader will win a 2-pack of each flavor of Seneca Farms Oatmeal & Fruit!
