IHOP at Home (And a Chance to Win a $100 Walmart Gift Card!) (CLOSED)
If you want to make Alexis squeal with delight, ask her if she wants breakfast for dinner. "YEEESSSSSSS!" she'll say. Always.
It's such a shame she's so hard to please.
As we pulled into our neighborhood a few nights ago, I figured it would be a perfect evening for an easy dinner. "Alexis, do you want pancakes or French toast for dinner?" I asked.
She grinned so big she couldn't let any words out. Finally, she stammered, "Pan...umm...FRENCH TOAST!" "PLEASE!" "...AND CAN I HAVE BLUEBERRY SYRUP?"
She practically vibrated all through the two blocks to our house as she waited for me to approve her syrup plans. Which, of course, I did.
A few weeks ago, IHOP sent me an amazing box filled with their new IHOP At Home® Syrups. There's Original, Lite, Sugar Free, Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity® Strawberry, and Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity® Blueberry. I bet you can't guess which one is Alexis' favorite.
She's not wrong about it being REALLY good. It most definitely is. There are little bits of real blueberries all throughout, so it tastes like there's a blueberry explosion going on when you put it in your mouth. DIVINE.
When we finally pulled into the driveway, the vibrating kid ran up to the kitchen and had the bread and eggs out on the counter before I could manage to take my coat off. Together we mixed up the eggs with a little milk, dipped the bread, and cooked up some really fantastic French toast.
Alexis was filled with giggles as we gathered around the table to enjoy dinner. Breakfast for dinner has that effect on her. She especially thought it was funny when she tried to hide the Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity Blueberry syrup under her chair so I couldn't have any.
It's a good thing I'm bigger than her. Ahem.
It's probably an even better thing that Mr. Husband hasn't joined in our fight over the Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity Blueberry syrup. He's a big fan of this one instead.
I'll grant him that the Lite is good, but gimme my fruit-flavored syrup, please!

We haven't tried them yet.. I love syrups though, so will have to give them a shot!
I haven't tried this yet but would like to try the strawberry one.
My family loves IHOP and pancake and we love to cook our breakfast at home. We are so happy to know there is IHOP at Home Syrup with fruity flavor, we must try the Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity® Blueberry syrup and the Strawberry syrup too; they are delicious!

We didn't even know about IHOP at Home Syrup until last weekend. I'm eager to buy it because I think everyone in the family will love it! Thanks for the giveaway.

Me loves pancakes! Me love syrup.
Selecting the syrup at Ihop is the most difficult decision because there are so many good options. We go through a lot of waffles and French toast sticks here, flavored syrups would be a great addition.
We have never tried the IHOP at home syrup but would love to! Thanks for the review and giveaway!

Since I hate, HATE, maple, its perfect! I can have strawberry syrup anywhere!
My shopping list this week consisted of blueberry eggos, bluebery little bites muffins, blueberry yogurt....I guess you get the drift....BLUEBERRY ROCKS for my 7 year old.
I am excited to try these new syrups. My daughter and I must eat gluten-free, so we cannot have pancakes at IHOP anymore. Since these syrups are gluten-free, we'll be able to make gluten-free pancakes and home but use the IHOP syrup - Yum!
my family have not tried it yet but it sound yummy
We haven't tried it yet but we love the syrup at the restaurant!

that's definitely a great way if you don't have an IHOP near you or if it's not convenient to stop into an IHOP.

pancakes are a morning staple - love the strawberry syrup!
love the blueberry!!
I would love to try IHOP at home; we love going there to have breakfast for dinner!
I haven't tried it yet but I am excited to! It sounds delicious.
Blueberry syrup is to die for. I definitely need to try IHOP's version!
I like to make my pancakes with butterscotch chips in them. I think white chocolate chips and that strawberry syrup would be amazing! Dessert for breakfast for dinner! :-)
The nearest ihop is 30 minutes away, but we have pancakes and waffles every weekend. My kids would love to try the syrup!
Love fruit flavored syrups! Will definitely have to try these!
Mmmm....Good!
My mom loves IHOP, so I'm sure she will be trilled to try some of these syrups at home.
Because of this post I had to buy both the sugar free and blueberry. My husband is a blueberry fanatic and he loves the blueberry syrup. I personally love the lite. You can tell it's lite! :)
This sounds great! We love IHOP!

I cannot even BEGIN to tell you how crazy the boys are for pancakes. And flavored syrups. Seriously. It's like Santa, The Easter Beagle and the Tooth Fairy all rolled into pancake-y goodness.
IHOP is selling their syrups now? I didn't know that! I will definitely have to swing by the store to get some. Sometimes, when we don't have plans, my man and I will go to IHOP for brunch on Sundays. We loooovvveee their pancakes and syrup.

Pancakes are a definite favorite in our house for every meal. I've tried the flavored syrups before at IHOP and I can't wait to get them at home!
I'm looking forward to trying this since I love the syrups in ihop restaurants. Thanks for the review and giveaway.

DH is a fan of pancakes and original syrup when we eat at IHOP. I haven't seen this at the stores yet, but will be on the lookout. The Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity® Blueberry would probably be my fave.
I love IHOPs Blueberry syrup and hope I can find it in my store.
My family loves the IHOP at Home Blueberry syrup on waffles!
