Have you ever been hangry? You know, so hungry that you're angry? Then once you finally eat your attitude and day seem to get better? This happens to me occasionally and it is a reminder that we need fuel and that a good meal can literally change your day. Since breakfast is the most important meal of the day, I have been making my family a nice breakfast with lots of protein from Smithfield.
Bacon and eggs are my go-to breakfast staple. Lately, I have been trying different breakfast options and adding Smithfield bacon and sausage to various recipes. You can add Smithfield bacon or sausage to your eggs in a skillet and have a delicious, protein-rich breakfast in no time. I have also been meal prepping and making a few recipes from the Smithfield website ahead of time so we have a nice breakfast that is ready-to-go and will power us through our day. One of our family favorites is Smithfield's Breakfast Tart with Sausage, Potato, Eggs, and Cheese - it is so yummy! You can check out all of their breakfast ideas by CLICKING HERE.
Smithfield is a well-known brand and I am assuming, like me, you are very familiar with the bacon section at your local grocer and know their bacon comes in a wide variety of cuts and flavors. But did you know that their premium quality pork sausage is available in flavorful links, patties, and rolls AND they’re gluten-free with no MSG, so you can feel good adding this breakfast staple to your plate?
Another thing I love about Smithfield is that they are giving back. I recently had a conversation with a local teacher and she told me a lot of her student's behavioral problems could be resolved by asking, "What did you have for dinner last night?" It's a heartbreaking reality that children in our community do not have enough to eat. Smithfield is encouraging people to get involved by sharing your breakfast on social media with the hashtag #BreakfastPower to raise awareness about the issue. For every breakfast shared, Smithfield will donate ten meals to No Kid Hungry. No Kid Hungry is an amazing non-profit that helps kids get access to healthy meals. How awesome is that?
If you're looking to cure your hangry or if you're looking to fuel-up your little student, try adding Smithfield products to their breakfast for that extra protein kick. Smithfield products can be purchased at most major grocers including Giant, Weis, Saubels, and WalMart. To learn more about Smithfield please CLICK HERE.
Smithfield is a sponsor of Macaroni Kid, however, all thoughts and opinions are truthful and my own.
