Let Musselman's Help Cool Off Your Summer Review & Giveaway -- ENDED

Musselman's makes DD's favorite apple sauce. It is honestly the only apple sauce she will eat. The last time we were at Disneyland I got her a kid's meal with apple sauce. Although she did eat it (because I did not want the food to go to waste), it was like pulling teeth to get her to eat the apple sauce. She kept on saying that it is not the same kind of apple sauce we eat at home and it tasted weird. I am not going to make that mistake again. No more buying apple sauce for her unless it's made by Musselman's.

To help us stay cool this summer, the company generously sent us a beautiful basket full of DD's favorite apple sauce. The basket even had a summer picnic table cover in it so that we could use it when we eat outdoors this summer. While I "oohhhh, aaahhhh" over the basket, DD was super eager to eat the apple sauce. I did give her some to eat, but I also saved a couple to use for some summer recipes the company sent me.
I made the creamy peachy berry smoothie with the apple sauce and it turned out great. I never used apple sauce in smoothies before and I was pleasantly surprised by how tasty it was. Here's the recipe I used:

1 cup of Musselman's natural apple sauce
2 cups of peaches
1/2 cup of raspberries or strawberries (we used freshly strawberries since that's what we had in the house).
juice of 1/2 a lime
1/2 cup milk.

It was very refreshing! We are going to try to make the Green Summer Salsa using the apple sauce next week and my husband is very excited about that.

If you haven't tried Musselman's apple sauce before, you are in luck! The company has generously offered some apple sauce as well as apple butter as giveaway prizes for 1 of my lucky readers (US residents only please).
