Back to School Must Have - Go Picnic Review & Giveaway



I am a spur of the moment kind of girl. When I step outside in the morning, and its a nice day, I'll just decide to go somewhere--whether its the park, the beach, or a nature trail. But when you make last minute decisions, you might not have time to pack lunches for everyone. That's where Go Picnic comes in.  They make meals on the go easy with their convenient prepackaged meals.




My family received a few of the different meals to try out. Each of my kids picked one of the kids meals. I was pleasantly surprised to find they contained pretty healthy options for processed food.  But they were also tasty treats my kids were excited to eat. They had  turkey peperoni, sunflower squares, dried apricots, cheese spreads, organic cookies and more. They ate up every bite and thought they were an exciting and fun alternative to regular sandwiches. They even come with convenient disposable utensils and  a wipe for your hands when your done. 




Go Picnic has lots of options for parents too. I got to try one of their salads. The tuna and pasta salad was amazingly tasty. Its compact container would be perfect for bringing to work for lunch, especially if you don't have a fridge. If you are thinking about giving Go Picnic a try, sign up for their newsletter to receive 10% off your order. They also offer free shipping on all orders over $99. Stock up for the new school year. On mornings when time gets away from you, these little meals will come in very handy.





In honor of the Back to School Season, Go Picnic is going to give one of my readers the chance to try out their awesome ready to eat meals for themselves. One winner will receive three meals of their choice, subject to availability. To enter, please visit Go Picnic and tell me which meal you would like to try the most.

He travels and has to have a 14 day pack with him, that we are trying to get ready, he also fights wildfires in our county, so when he is at the top of a mountain and needs something to eat, these would be great, Thanks!
