Thank you to LUNA Protein for providing me a LUNA Protein sample pack to review. The opinions I’ve expressed here are solely my own and represent my honest viewpoint.

***

For the last two weeks, something remarkable has been happening at my house each Tuesday and Thursday.

After my son heads to kindergarten, and my girls have been dropped off at mothers’ day out for the day, I have found myself in the glorious position of being on my own for a few hours! No diapers to change. Or snacks to make. Or arguments to referee. Bliss!

So what have I done with myself on these days to myself? Here’s a hint:

Baby Cuatro will be making his/her grand entrance in just a matter of weeks, so every. single. moment. I’ve had has been spent working on the nursery. This week’s project has been the bedding, and it has been quite the undertaking! This morning, I actually looked up from my sewing machine and realized I had overlooked something crucial in my solitary glee:

I had forgotten to eat. And I was hungry, folks!

I was recently given the opportunity to try out some LUNA Protein bars, a perfect in-a-crunch or on-the-go snack option for busy moms coping with the hustle and bustle of caring for little ones (or for those like myself striving to maximize to the fullest the moments we have to ourselves!). Created just for women, the bars are packed with goodness:

Gluten Free
12g of protein, 3g of fiber
High in Calcium and Folic Acid
Good Source of Iron and Vitamin D

I have absolutely loved having these bars at my disposal this week. Even when I am my busiest, I know I can grab a LUNA Protein bar for a nutritious, satisfying snack that doesn’t necessitate any fussy prep work on my part. And you know the best part? These bars are absolutely delicious! My personal favorites have been the Cookie Dough and Chocolate Peanut Butter flavors, but each and every variety I’ve tried has been super tasty. 


So instead of having to abbreviate my sewing frenzy yesterday, I satisfied my hunger with one of these bars. I also tucked one in my purse before my son’s soccer practice earlier this week, and I was so glad to have it on hand!

So, do you want in on a little secret?

    Ooo, these would be awesome to take along with me as I chase my daughter around to and from Cheer practice, football games, golf practice, etc.! And to have on hand while I’m doing my crafty, I always forget to eat when having fun creating! LOL This is just what I need! Thanks for the chance to win! audrey

    Great giveaway! I love Luna bars and eat them all the time on those days when I don’t have time to sit down for breakfast. It’d be great to try out their protein bars too. The flavors look yummy!

  9. busyrunningmama says

    I would love to win because I am always on the go and looking for a snack to throw in my purse. I am also training for my first half marathon , so a ton of protein is a must……!!!

  27. The Thomans says

    I would love to win! We are always looking for more gluten free snacks on the go in our house, plus ANY excuse to eat chocolate is okay in my book!

  31. Erin says

    I love luna bars! Haven’t tried the protein ones yet. But I almost always keep the others in my purse. Even to the point that my 2.5 year old nephew says “E can I have a bite of ‘woona'” 🙂 Presh! So pick me!

  32. Sarah says

    I am working out and trying to get more active and lose weight. It would be nice to have a high protein snack to carry in my purse or for an after workout snack.

  34. Laura says

    This is a great review!! 🙂 I just had a baby 6 weeks ago.. and I too forget to eat, or am not able to grab a good meal all the time because I’m constantly feeding her, changing diapers, holding her, etc. (you know the drill).. so these would be GREAT to have on the go! – I need to go get myself a pack soon! thanks for the giveaway!!

  44. Milkshake Baby says

    I would LOVE to win because I’m pregnant, a triathlete, and LOVE Luna bars! These are a great nighttime treat for those of us who have funky bloodsugar too!

  45. ~ Cee ~ says

    I would love to win these for a boost pre- or post-workout. I workout on my lunch break at work, and this would be a little pickmeup in the middle of the afternoon!

    These look amazing. Having a 9 year old who has to eat gluten-free for allergy reasons, I’m always running short on snack ideas. This would be a yummy thing to pop in his backpack for an afterschool snack.

  50. Erin J. says

    I am a nanny of a 4 year old and a 2 year old in addition to caring for my 2 year old son. Those boys keep me going all day and these bars would be a perfect solution to grabbing a good snack!

  56. Christie says

    Pick me! Pick me! I love the Luna bars but the grocery store up the street doesn’t carry the chocolate and mint chocolate bars. Until today I didn’t even know they existed!

  62. mrscatchings says

    While I may not be a mother-on-the-go, I am an aunt who spends her days either at college, or keeping my one year old niece. So, I guess that makes me an Aunt-on-the-go. She’s the busiest little thing in the whole world but I love her to pieces. =]

    btw love the blog!
