You'll SING© for Greek Yogurt Cereal Donuts #PostfortheHolidays

One of our favorite family traditions during the holiday season is to have movie marathons. There are so many good movies, old and new, this time of year, we try to squeeze in as many as we can before Christmas hits. When we have movie night at home, we always have snacks on hand, usually trying to coordinate the snack to the theme of the movie we are watching. If we are heading out to the theater, we'll make special treats to enjoy leading up to the day of the movie to get the girls extra excited about our family outing. With all of the hustle and bustle that the season brings, it's just a nice way for us to slow things down a bit and have fun together as as family.  

We've been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new movie SING©, which will be released in theaters on December 21, 2016. The movie will feature cute animals, fun songs sung by mega-stars, and lots of humor. Just what we need to break from the chaos of the holiday. To get the girls geared up for the movie, I decided to whip up some tasty breakfast "donuts" inspired by the movie.

These donuts are made with Greek yogurt, Honey Bunches of Oats® cereal, and a few sprinkles. Simply mix Greek Yogurt with Honey Bunches of Oats® and sprinkles, fill some donut molds, freeze, then eat!

Keeping with the animal theme from SING©, I top them off with iced animal cookies and a touch of whipped cream and a few more sprinkles.

Malt-O-Meal ~ Great Tasting And Money Saving!

We are a cereal family. We will eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even for snacking. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that a lot of our grocery budget is spent in the breakfast aisle. With the rising cost of groceries, like most families, we are always looking for ways to get more for our dollar at the grocery store. In a recent study from the Brookings Institution, it was revealed that 1/3 of households are spending every last dime of each paycheck. So, finding simple ways to save on groceries is more important than ever!

Malt-O-Meal is paving the way for great tasting cereals for budget conscious families. Part of the MOM Brands®, Malt-O-Meal is committed to finding better ways to make a better breakfast at a better price.

Ounce for ounce, Malt-O-Meal bagged cereals cost less than leading boxed brands, and have actually saved consumers nearly $1.5 billion in cereal purchases since 2007, without compromising quality.

In a recent national taste test conducted by MOM Brands, consumers preferred the taste of four Malt-O-Meal cereal varieties over similar, more expensive Post® Cereal brands.

Malt-O-Meal Oat Blenders With Honey & Almonds were preferred over Post Honey Bunches® of Oats with Almonds.

Malt-O-Meal Cocoa Dyno-Bites® were preferred over Post Cocoa Pebbles®.

Malt-O-Meal Fruity Dyno-Bites® were preferred over Post Fruity Pebbles®.

Malt-O-Meal Honey Buzzers® were preferred over Post Honeycomb® cereal.

In the Mahoney family taste test, my results showed that my family definitely preferred the taste of Malt-O-Meal Oat Blenders With Honey & Almonds and Malt-O-Meal Golden Puffs over the equivalent of their boxed counterparts. Allison has always been a huge fan of Honey Smacks, so if Malt-O-Meal Golden Puffs gets her seal of approval, then it's a winner in my book too! My husband is one who doesn't care too much how a cereal tastes, but if it saves him money at the store, in the cart it goes. He really did love the taste of the Malt-O-Meal Oat Blenders With Honey & Almonds, and eats it almost daily now.

There are currently over 28 delicious flavor varieties of Malt-O-Meal cereals, so there is something for almost every taste bud. If you don't love them (that's probably a stretch, since they are delicious!) Malt-O-Meal will refund your money. You have nothing to lose, except dollars off your grocery bill, by giving them a try!
