I have been out of the baby food stage for a couple years now but I know several moms who are getting ready to enter it again!  Which has me thinking about ways I can they can reuse some of the products they might get a lot of as new moms.  Making your own baby food is easy and much more cost saving, but sometimes keeping some Gerber Cereal on hand for on-the-go moments and for leaving at Grandma's house can help on those hectic days.  It has come in handy more than a few times!

Gerber is a big fan of breastfeeding and knows that the best start for babies is through breast milk but when it's time to add food to our baby's diet then Gerber is stepping up to the plate!  They take pride in only using high-quality
ingredients that meet rigorous Nestlé strict standards of food safety, quality, and regulatory standards for their products, ingredients, and packaging.  They select only healthy ingredients and ensure developmental appropriateness and conduct rigorous research to ensure high-quality products.  Did you know that Gerber also has Organic, probiotic and DHA products available?  There really is something for everyone in every stage of life that their babies are in.

I know some babies need help getting full before going to bed so they'll sleep better.  This is where the Gerber Cereal can help.  If your baby is breastfeeding but needs a little extra “oomph” before bed time then consider giving them some Gerber Cereal.  Not only will it help fill their tummies but they will also be getting a blend of six vitamins and iron!  Gerber's Single-grain/Multigrain options allow babies to naturally progress from breastfeeding to solid “real food” by moving from single-grain cereals to multigrain cereals and then on to cereals with fruit, Lil Bits and Hearty Bits.  There's a Gerber Cereal that's perfect for whatever stage your baby is in.  Head to your local Wal-Mart to see which cereal works for you!

Recently, I discovered using Gerber Cereal in recipes!   Who knew?!?  Add Gerber Cereals to pancakes, smoothies, cookies and many other things to help your little ones get a little extra vitamins without them even knowing!  I just made Fruity Oatmeal Muffins for my friends little boys and they had NO idea there was Gerber cereal in them!  The muffins were so moist and delicious.  I even found myself going back for more!  These are great for a quick breakfast or snacks.  I used Gerber's Apple Strawberry Banana baby food this time and they were so yummy!  Next time I think I'll try them with peach or banana!  So baby cereal isn't just for babies anymore!  Transforming leftover Gerber cereal into fruity muffins is a brilliant way to repurpose ingredients and ease into homemade toddler snacks. By incorporating the cereal into the muffin batter, you infuse each bite with wholesome goodness and a delightful fruity flavor. Not only does this reduce food waste, but it also provides a nutritious and delicious treat for little ones, making snack time both enjoyable and beneficial.

How to store leftover muffins

After baking the fruity muffins using leftover Gerber cereal, allow them to cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, store the muffins in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag. For optimal freshness, you can place a piece of parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking. Keep the muffins at room temperature for up to 2-3 days. If you want to store them longer, you can freeze the muffins. Simply wrap each muffin individually in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. Frozen muffins can last for up to 2-3 months. When ready to enjoy, thaw them at room temperature or warm them up in the microwave for a quick and convenient snack.

I'd encourage you to get creative and see where you can start adding Gerber Cereals to your meals and snacks.  If you do add Gerber Cereals to a recipe be sure to take a photo and post it to social media using.
