This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Carton Smart for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
Do you ever feel like you spend all this time planning for Christmas morning and it’s over in a matter of minutes (usually before 6am too) and there are all those boxes and paper all over the place?
I always feel like the holidays are filled with overabundance and waste.
Every present is wrapped in pretty paper and bows that go straight into the trash.
We make all this food, that the kids refuse to eat, that ends up going down the garbage disposal.
But, Tetra Pak has found a way to make our holiday a little greener with their organic cartons from Pacific Foods.
Many of your favorite foods at the holidays (green bean casserole, pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce) have ingredients that come in cans…which can expose you to increased BPA’s and contribute to landfills.
It’s easy to find these exact same ingredients though in cartons (which use 1/3 the packaging of cans and have the added benefit of being organic and preservative free).
Did you know that pumpkin is actually really healthy for you? It’s VERY high in Vitamin A and a good source of fiber. My kids love pumpkin chocolate chip muffins for breakfast, but I found this Chocolate Pumpkin Ice Cream recipe on the Pacific Foods site that I think will be a BIG hit with them too!
So this holiday, Become Carton Smart and make a conscious choice to use ingredients in cartons instead of cans.

What recipe do you always include on your holiday menu?
