General Mills Eat Better America Info and $25 Grocery Gift Card Giveaway

Eating healthy is important to my family and I.  I try to serve up healthy, yet tasty meals whenever I can, but sometimes for me it can be a challenge to come up with new and creative ideas to keep making these types of meals.  General Mills is encouraging people to take an active role in living a healthier lifestyle with their ‘Eat Healthy America‘ campaign.  This site is incredibly helpful – there are tips for eating healthy, exercise, videos and oodles of mouthwatering recipes.  There is even a community, where you can share ideas. No longer will I run out of ideas for healthy meals – that’s for sure!

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. Here is a place that inspires all of us to eat, and live, better.

General Mills also has a sweepstakes going on right now, where one winner will receive $1,500 to spend on healthy groceries.  There are other prizes available too, and also an instant win game! Each person can make one pledge only, so your odds are pretty good!

Isn’t it time that we all start eating healthier – and set a good example for our children?  I know I am ready to make an even bigger effort.  I cannot wait to try out some of the recipes at Eat Better America – there are some really tempting ones!  I especially want to try the ‘Healthified’ Mini Chocolate Cheesecakes {pictured at left} – yum-o!

General Mills has so kindly offered one of my readers a grocery gift card to help you and your family to eat healthy!
