This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Tyson Foods, Inc. All opinions are my own.
I’m a mom of 4 and I work outside my home. My 3 oldest boys are school age and I have a toddler at home. My boys all play football at different levels. One is in his 1st year of youth football, one is playing middle school football, and one is playing JV/Varsity football. You know what that means? That means 3 different football practices, 4 different game days, and kids that need to be in different places at one time. Sometimes I don’t have time to prepare a home cooked meal.
Sometimes I feel guilty about not always being able to have a home cooked meal but you know what, my kids don’t mind as much as I mind sometimes. When my boys come home from football practice or a game they’re always “starving”. They’ll make themselves a sandwich as soon as they get home then eat supper too. Basically what it comes down to is they’ll eat whatever I put in front of them. But it’s up to me to find high quality foods for them. I want things that aren’t full of chemicals and preservatives.
One thing I almost always have on hand is Tyson® chicken strips or Tyson chicken nuggets. They are quick, filling, and I know my kids like them. I like Tyson because of the 100% natural ingredients and no added hormones or steroids. Who needs that? My older boys really like the Jimmy Dean® stuffed hash browns for breakfast or even a snack. They are quite filling, I’ve tried them myself.

$5 Savings! I could buy the usual things i buy and maybe throw in a yummy Sara Lee frozen dessert because I can. I’m sure no one in my house would complain.
Another reason to take advantage of this deal? Unexpected guests. Over the summer and on the weekends my boys seem to have a constant stream of friends coming over. I love it but I’m not always prepared for guests. Have you ever had a a group of 14 year old boys who are football players over your house? Those boys can put away the food and never show it. I joke with my boys and tell them it’s almost like locusts. They come in, eat everything in the house and move on. LOL. But seriously, they’re not afraid to eat.
Then, of course, there’s football season. My boys have friends over to watch the game. My hubby will have my father-in-law or some of his friends over. I’ll throw some Tyson Any’tizers in the oven and throw out a Sara Lee pie and everyone’s happy. We’ve been known to host a few Super Bowl parties too! This picture here was from the big game in January this year. I think we had 30 people total show up. Everyone brought some type of dish. I had finger sandwiches. We also made up a bunch of Tyson chicken fingers and boneless wings to serve. When you’re preparing food for that many people in your home, it’s always a good idea to have these products on hand.
What would you grab with the savings? #tysonfoods #jimmydean #saraleedesserts
