Cheerios™ have always been such a large part of my family while growing up – it was a common breakfast food and something common for trail mix and other sorts of treats. I love thinking back on the memories that Cheerios™ brings back as I think about my childhood. I remember my Grandmother always having Cheerios™ in her house when we went to visit. It was like a given, we knew she would have them and they would be there for us for breakfast, snack and more. She always had fresh made treats too but some of them were not things I liked – like German Chocolate Cake (not a fan of coconut). We all used to sit around the breakfast table with our bowls of Cheerios™ and milk to just spend time together. Those were special moments that I will never forget. My Grandmother has already left this world but my memories of her have not. I look forward to sharing these memories with our son, Liam as he grows up with Cheerios™ there along the way.

Cheerios™ has an awesome opportunity to share their product with someone who means a lot to you. I’ve redeemed a code and sent it to my Dad so he can go purchase a box of Cheerios™ for free and remember his Mom’s memories too!

This is an awesome and easy way to show someone that you care. With Mother’s Day and Father’s Day right around the corner, it is a GREAT way to share your love and memories of Cheerios with someone you consider a Mother or Father in your life.
You can pick up a box of Cheerios™ at your local Walmart! Look for the specially marked boxes (as shown below), enter the code found inside the box and fill out an E-card online for a friend to open and receive a coupon for a free box of Cheerios™!
When you purchase a box of Cheerios™, you can have the classic bowl of cereal (which is always a good choice) or you can make a special treat with them. I’m excited to share this recipe with you for Cheerios™ Bars. They’re delicious and easy to make.
Cheerios™ Bars
Ingredients:
- 3 Cups Cheerios™
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup honey
Directions:
Line an 8×8 dish with parchment paper.
Put honey and peanut butter in large saucepan and heat over medium heat until combined and just starting to bubble.
Remove from heat and stir in Cheerios™. Mix until well combined.
Spread mixture into prepared dish. Cover with a piece of parchment paper and press firmly.
Refrigerate for 1 hour. Cut into squares and serve.
These bars make a great gift for your friends or a great on the go snack! We are loving grabbing them for breakfast in the morning and will be making these more often! You can add in chocolate chips or use almond butter instead of peanut butter for a different flavor.

What a great memory of your grandmother! This is such a fun program. I think I will be giving a box to my brother as we used to always Honey Nut Cheerios™ before school when we were children! (Client)
