Van's Natural Foods Review


We like to keep frozen breakfast items on hand for those mornings that I don't like standing over the hot stove (which is most mornings)! Most pre-packaged breakfast items, though, aren't exactly healthy for you and they contain a lot of sugar. While I definitely like to make my own pancakes, french toast and waffles and freeze them, it's nice to pick up a box of pre-made to keep on hand.

When Van's Natural Foods offered to send us some of their mini-waffles and french toast sticks, we graciously accepted. Since my Lil' Peanut could be a professional waffle tester, I knew I could get some honest feedback. She dug right in.

First of all, I love that the mini waffles only have 63 calories and 1.5g of fat for 4 of them. The are the perfect size and no syrup is needed -- they taste DE-LISH!! My little one loves that they also come in flavors like chocolate chip and blueberry. There are NO preservatives (unlike other brands) and NO cholesterol either - and, NO high fructose corn syrup!

The french toast sticks were equally yummy and fun to dip in applesauce! (Maybe they'll come out with a whole grain and flax version - hint, hint.)

For the gluten-free families, they even offer wheat-free pancakes!

You can check out all of Van's natural products HERE and find out where to buy these great products HERE!

Thanks again Van's for creating such wonderful products and for letting us try them out!!


Disclosure: Van's provided me 2 boxes of mini-waffles and a box of french toast sticks to review. The opinion above is my own, honest opinion. The compensation received will never influence the content, topics or posts made in this blog. No other compensation was given.

  1. i get their gluten free waffles for my little girl who is allergic to gluten. She LOVES them. And my other girl asks for them, even though she has her own wheat waffles. And I personally like Van's better than other brands. Yum! Glad you were able to review their products!
