I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Roman Meal. I received product samples to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for participating.
One of the things I love most about Roman Meal bread is that it is always baked fresh locally in bakeries across the country. It makes a big difference in the taste of bread when it is fresh. I can tell it’s fresh when I eat Roman Meal breads.
I was sent Roman Meal whole wheat bread. I switched our family over to whole wheat bread several years ago and I am happy that both of my kids eat it (and love it) with no complaints. Studies have shown whole grain intake may reduce the risk of heart disease, and whole grains are a good source for vitamin D, calcium, and fiber. So it just makes sense to only give my family whole grains.
With school now in full swing for us I have been sending lunch with my son on the days he doesn’t like what is being offered in the cafeteria. I made his sandwich with Roman Meal bread and he LOVES it!
We also used it as a healthy “bun” choice on our yummy turkey burgers the other night for dinner. Delicious! There are so many different ways you can incorporate Roman Meal bread into meals.
The Roman Meal website has a lot of great recipes you can make for your family. I can’t wait to try some of them! Here are a couple I am wanting to try…
