Yummy summer treats: Matlaws Clams

Trendymommmies gets to test out a lot of great products and over the years we’ve received fun and interesting goodies.

This week we got to sample CLAMS! Yes it’s summer and one of our favorite treats are stuffed clams. The folks at Matlaw’s sent us some of their unique combination of stuffed clams including their Bacon & Cheese Stuffed Clams, Chorizo Stuffed Clams and Chili Lime Stuffed Clams. All were so yummy. They are served in a natural clamshell and Matlaw’s stuffed clams are the #1 frozen seafood appetizer in the U.S. If you are having a get together this summer check them out. My kids tasted them and said they were great!

If you have not heard of Matlaw’s they are one of the most popular and long-standing names in seafood. They also sell New England Style Stuffed Scallops, Frozen Cod Fillets, Flounder Fillets, Tilapia Fillets, Salmon Fillets, Pollock Fillets – and Crispy Original, Barbecue and Coconut Popcorn Shrimp.

Matlaw’s website, is brand new too and offers Mobile Accessibility so you can “Discover Matlaw’s” anywhere and they have special offers and coupons so you can try even more of Matlaw’s new products.

Disclosure:  The company sent me the clams to test out and review. All opinions are my own.

@NeRevolution Soccer – See a game!

What is the best thing to do on a nice summer night? Watch a soccer game! We had the opportunity to head to Gillette to watch the New England Revolution match! My teen has been playing soccer since kindergarten and my 10 year old has as well. We love soccer. It was quite an experience to head to Gillette stadium if you have never been and the fan excitement over soccer when you arrive is so much fun to see. We were lucky to have VIP Field Passes to watch the warm-ups up close and then we headed to the East Club premium seats which was quite nice. We each received our @Krowe201 bobble head! My kids love to collect bobble heads of athletes. Food and snacks were everywhere so you can enjoy beverages, dinner and even ice cream. There was an ice cream sundae making station as well as a nacho station in the Club! This is the best way to enjoy the game with the kids.  Overall it was a great experience and a fun time!

Disclosure: We were treated to VIP field passes and tickets to the game (and of course received the cute bobble head) All views in this post are my own.

Great new restaurant @Noodlescompany #NoodlesMA

A few blogger friends and I met at @Noodlescompany in Burlington the other day to sample some of their yummy dishes.  This is a new restaurant in our area and I have to say, very kid friendly.  In fact every Monday now through the end of August from 4 PM until close kids can get a free small mac & cheese with an adult purchase.  They have a great selection of noodle dishes including chicken noodle soup! My two favorites are the Pesto Cavatappi and the Bangkok Curry. They also have sandwiches and salads to choose from too. I like how you can choose from a small size portion ($4.69) and a regular ($5.89) Great price points too. For those picky kids they even have a buttered noodles and a spaghetti and meatballs dish. Check out their facebook page. And if there is a day that you are not in the mood to cook and your kids are hungry check them out!  The menu has many items to choose from.

Disclosure: I was invited to a taste sampling. All opinions are my own.
