Making Time for Breakfast Treats #strudelgram
Frantic Mornings
Taking time to savour a leisurely breakfast together is rare. Oh, we strive to eat together every morning, but it is almost always a super quick meal. Let’s be realistic – life is busy. Breakfast, most mornings, is coffee and a super fast bowl of cereal and a race to get dressed and out the door. Kids are on the bus early and my husband – these days – is up and shovelling (Whew what a winter! Then he’s out to work early too.) So, we connect, but in a passing manner that is sometimes frantic and not really that memorable.
A birthday treat. |
This week Pillsbury Toaster Strudel challenged our family to make the most of breakfast by sharing these tasty breakfast pastries. We had never tried them before. I don’t normally eat much for breakfast, so what better time than March break to take a moment together to share a treat and a leisurely morning of sorts.
Birthday-grams!!
One of my girls had a birthday this week so lucky for us the timing for a Toaster Strudel Birthday – gram was perfect. The Pillsbury Toaster Strudels are found in the freezer section of the grocery store and they come in several delicious flavours. We tried Blueberry, but there’s also Mixed Fruits, Apple, Raspberry and others. I loved the warmed up Blueberry toaster strudel. I tried writing on mine but it melted into a big blob because I like mine warm. So we tried the next two a little less warm and the writing stayed put. (see above)
Warm or cold these breakfast treats are delicious. These would be fun for a sleepover breakfast too. Any group of kids would love these breakfast treats.

My kids seriously love those strudel treats! We don’t get them too often; but definitely for special occasions and birthdays.

Oh I used to love these as a kid. I need to pick some up and share them with my boys.

My kids use to really love things like this and I have to admit I do too. Such an easy and tasty breakfast.

I used to eat these all the time as akid and I loved making designs on them! I’m not as creative these days but sometimes when I make them for my boyfriend i’d “paint” a heart on them, haha.

My husband loves these. I personally haven’t tried them.

I could eat toaster strudels for breakfast everyday of the week .We all love them but I only buy them occasionally because I think they are more of a treat than a breakfast of cereal and fruit or other really healthy foods.
