Special K Cereal and Bars Review!

Special K is one of my favorite food brands. I recently grabbed a trio of cereals from Costco and love them. I'm a huge fan of their chocolate covered pretzel cereal bars among others. They just have such a great variety of delicious snacks, cereals, and more that just never disappoint.

BzzAgent sent me a few of Special K's products to check out including:

- Special K Protein Cereal in Cinnamon Brown Sugar Crunch

- Special K Chewy Nut Bars in Chocolate Almond

I received these right after I went to the gym so I was starving and it was the perfect time to inhale a bowl of cereal and a bar. Man they were so good!

The cereal has 7 grams of protein, 11 grams if you add some milk to it. One serving size, which is 3/4 cup, contains 110 calories. It's a great cereal if you love cinnamon-sweet cereals and I DO, I DO, I DO-OOOO. It is sugary though and has 9 grams of sugar so be careful, don't go too crazy.

The bars are great, too. Perfect for on-the-go snacks. I like to keep one in my purse just to have whenever. Each bar is 170 calories so they're sweet and delicious but a bit steep in calories. I usually like granola bars that are 100 calories or less. Still, sometimes it's worth it for the few extra calories. These guys are gluten free, too. They also contain 4 grams of protein.

Overall, I really enjoyed both of these products. They're delicious and pretty addicting. Definitely check them out, you won't be disappointed!

Special K Nourish Review!

We all know and love Special K, it's a great brand that always had the best snacks whether they're granola bars or shake mixes, and always the greatest cereal. Recently, they came out with some great, unique cereal called Nourish. It's a hot cereal and it's delicious. I received the opportunity to review their new hot cereal, along with their Nourish nutrition bars, thanks to BzzAgents.



The Nourish cereals I received are:
Maple Brown Sugar Crunch
Cinnamon Raisin Pecan
Cranberry Almond

The cereals comes with fruit and nut toppings you mix in to add to the yumminess factor.



Basically you open up the container, add about 1/3rd of hot water, stir, leave it for 2-3 minutes, then add in the fruit and nuts. It's like oatmeal but a lot easier to make, more delicious, and only contains 190 calories per container. Oatmeal can be good for you but in the instant kind, this is a much healthier alternative. It's a unique multi-grain blend of quinoa, oats, barley and wheat. Each delicious flavor is a good source of protein, fiber, and vitamins A, C and E, so you can nourish yourself with a warm, nutritious start to your day.

I am a huge cereal fiend, but sometimes in the morning I'm a little cold or I want something warm so this is the perfect easy breakfast I love them. I love the nuts and fruit too it's just like another delicious bonus.



The bars were pretty delicious, too. The flavors I received are:
Lemon Twist
Cranberry Almond
Dark Chocolate Nut Delight

I love snacking, especially because sometimes I have a crazy schedule where I can't have a giant meal so I grab a bar to have on the way and these are perfect. There's so many bars out there nowadays that claim they're nutritious and healthy but are packed with preservatives and sugar. These contain 8 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber also contains calcium, vitamin d, and iron.

I wasn't a huge fan of the lemon zest mainly because I'm not a huge fan of lemon flavored things but the others were so, so delicious! Such a great snack to have on the go and while the calories are a little high at 160 calories it's because it's packed full of protein and fiber. Definitely worth it, too!

Overall, I was really impressed with Special K's Nourish line, they were so delicious. Definitely check it out you won't be disappointed!
