Giveaway: Eat Better America $25 Grocery Gift Card CLOSED

One of the hardest things to do as a mother, for me, is to ensure that I am teaching my kids healthy eating habits.  I try to make sure that they eat balanced diets, along with a variety of fruits and vegetable.  Thankfully, my kids make this job fairly easy.  But, I am always on the look-out for new ways to make healthy eating a lifestyle in our home.  If you struggle with this also, then check out this Eat Better America website, sponsored by General Mills.

Here is some information about the Eat Better America initiative from there site:  Created and funded by Minneapolis-based General Mills, eatbetteramerica.com is designed for people who are increasingly interested in the impact food has on their health and crave simple, easy-to-understand health and nutritional information. But we know that too often, nutritional information can be confusing or a little difficult to follow. As one of the leading food companies in the world, we saw the need for a simple, straightforward website that makes eating better easier and more fun.

We have created a site where people can learn from experts, as well as folks just like them, about how healthy eating habits and easy-to-follow exercise tips can help enrich life. So, now, you’re not alone in this quest. In addition to our own experts at the Bell Institute of Health and Nutrition, we’ve brought in outside experts to provide a richer, more comprehensive, and more importantly, more entertaining site.

And because eatbetteramerica.com is about helping everyone in America eat better, we’ve designed our kitchens to reflect today’s cooking needs and lifestyles. We use the same healthy ingredients and state-of-the-art appliances and equipment to test thousands of recipes every year.

General Mills is proud to support many of the world’s most trusted and respected brands. Brands like Green Giant, Yoplait Yogurt, Cheerios, organics Cascadian Farm and Muir Glen. In addition, we offer a long list of products that are working every day to nourish your taste buds, your mind and your body.

Please join in and help us as we work to create a useful and fun place that enables you not only to enjoy what you eat, but feel even better about the food decisions you make.

    I’m getting my family to eat healthier by growing more fruit trees and planting a bigger veggie garden! Talk about eating local! And, all organic, no pesticides, no diseases, just delicious!

    I substitute healthy lower fat/calorie ingredients in my family’s favorite dishes. Thanks!

    We get our little one involved with his food. He loves picking berries or digging up potatoes. And after he helps out, he’s more excited to try the fresh fruits and veggies.

    I’m getting my family to eat healthier by severely limiting how much not-healthy foods I bring into our home.

    Here’s a tried and true health tip: Mix cooked barley into any rice pilaf or rice based dish- this boosts the fiber and adds nutrition.

  19. Amanda A says

    We have switched from sugary junk snacks to fresh or dried fruits. The kids still get the sweet taste, but it’s much better for them!

    We purchase fresh organic fruits, meats and veggies through out local food co-op. Less expensive and so much better for you!

  35. Stephanie Grant says

    I get my family to eat better by only buying heathy foods and make sure I don’t keep lost of junk and candy around for them! I also like to keep fresh fruit bowls in the fridge for a quick healthy snack!

    I try to have at least one fruit and one vegetable at every meal if I can. Some days are definitely better than others.

    I’d like to try their Tex-Mex Veggie Burgers recipe. I love the site, I’ve been on their mailing list for months and have made several of the recipes!

  43. Stacy says

    Since fruit is now in season, I’ve been going to the market each week and stocking up on fresh fruit.

  45. Kylie says

    I’m making more foods from scratch which has cut down our fat, sodium, and chemical intake.
