Packing food for a sporting event + Win an Ice Cream Movie Pack

This post is sponsored by the Allen’s Team

My kids started karate when they were wee little ones, the twins had just turned 6 and my youngest started when she was 4.  This past week I am so excited to have watched the twins receive their black belt in karate… they have put in so much effort and perseverance over the past 6 years, I am so excited for them to have reached this level. This is a photo of them below with their Shihan after their grading… they were exhausted!

They train 2-3 times a week and attend karate tournaments regularly.  I have found the tournaments have really helped them boost their confidence and self esteem, helped them learn to believe in themselves and to give everything a go.  We had a tournament on the weekend and I usually spend some time the day before prepping food to take along.  I made some Macadamia, Almond & Coconut Balls, Apple & Oat Muffins, egg sandwiches plus each of us had a banana and a mini packet of Jelly Beans. This will keep them full of energy for the day.

I pack the Allen’s Jelly Bean as a treat for the kids to have after they have finished all their events.  I like the new little snack size packs as I know the kids won’t over indulge (mine tend to if they are given a bowl, they don’t know when to stop).

There are 9 Jelly Beans in each packet and I LOVE how they have left out the black (aniseed) flavour as most kids don’t like them anyway.  The ‘Fruity Craze’ flavours are – Blueberry, Raspberry, Apple, Orange, Strawberry, Apricot, Vanilla and Blackcurrant.  I didn’t realise the colours resembled fruits until now… there you go!

We have always loved the Allen’s Jelly Beans, my favourites are the pink and white (strawberry and vanilla) flavours. I also make little afternoon snacks for the kids after school, usually a friday afternoon snack to celebrate the end of the week!  I put some Jelly Beans in the bottom of a cup and have the cone ready for when they get home, then I scoop in some ice-cream and they decorate the top of their ice creams with the jelly beans.
