Basilmomma.com partners, Produce for Kids and Meijer, are hosting the third annual Healthy Families, Helping Kids campaign to educate families on the benefits of healthy eating and raise money for nutrition education through Jump with Jill, a music-based health program for kids. Since 2002, Meijer has raised more than $1 million for local children’s organizations. Actually, Meijer hit the $1 million mark after this past spring, so that was a big benchmark for them!

These no bake granola balls are one of 6 recipes that you can pick up free at your local Meijer store.

When Jacob was a baby this book and all of the matching gear was so popular- so I love that we are making these ‘themed’ recipes together!

Shoppers are encouraged to add more produce to their grocery carts through from Aug. 31-Sept. 27 and then all 11 participating fruit and vegetable suppliers will make a consumption-based donation to Jump with Jill. Shoppers should also be on the lookout for the Produce for Kids display, featuring The Very Hungry Caterpillar™ in the produce section of all Meijer stores to pick up a shopping list of participating produce companies, along with easy, healthy recipes for their family. The display will direct shoppers to Produce for Kids , featuring more than 150 kid-approved recipes, meal planning tools, campaign information and healthy tips from real parents.

I hope you enjoy the no bake granola balls recipe!
