Disclosure: The information and prize pack have been provided by General Mills through MyBlogSpark. During the colder months, I tend to stay away from salads. I prefer hot, hearty meals in the winter to keep me warm and toasty.......but isn't that the norm with everyone? In the summer, I’m all about salads and smoothies. It’s easy for me to maintain my weight in the summer because I’m not indulging in all of those carbs for dinner. ;) Recently, I received an email from MyBlogSpark to try … [Read more...]

She would make yummy and refreshing … [Read more...]
