GoPicnic Meals- Review and Giveaway

Summer days are busy, busy days for me and my family. We love going outdoors to play at the park, watch soccer games, and swim at the community pool. We travel a whole lot too and as a busy mom with two active toddlers, there are times when I wish there were convenient ways to make things easier for me- like packing snacks or lunches for traveling or when heading outdoors.

Recently, I found this really ingenious, quick, grab-and-go meal idea: GoPicnic Meals.

GoPicnic Meals are ready-to-eat meals that are filled with natural ingredients that require no refrigeration or preparation. Simply open the box and enjoy!

I have had the wonderful opportunity to test out five of the Go Meals: GoTrek, GoEnergy, GoSavory, GoPower and GoDeli. So far, my two favorites are the Gotrek and the GoSavory.

For my kiddos, we sampled the SportsMunch, AquaMunch, JungleMunch from their Mighty Munch Meals collection. Although my two year old Jaden didn't like most of the food items, my four year old Gabriel was quick to devour both the SportsMunch and AquaMunch- especially the turkey pepperoni slices and cinnamon twists. :)

GoPicnic Meals are compact, convenient and are small enough to carry in regular-sized picnic bags. There are about five or six individually-packed choice food items plus, plastic utensils and moist towelette already included in each box. So, no need to bring those necessary utensils anymore!

So instead of of making a run to the fast food drive-through for convenience's sake, I think the GoPicnic meals are a healthier alternative. They're just as quick and convenient for play dates, camps, schools or for when you don’t feel like cooking! They even offer their meals gluten-free, vegetarian, kosher or halal for people who are in those specialty type of diets.

*Win one of each GoPicnic GoMeals and Mighty Munch Meals for you and your kid to try!

Three winners will win one box each of the GoPicnic GoMeals and the Mighty Munch Meals of their choice!
