Super Simple & Quick Kid Friendly Snacks
Being a single mom of these 2 crazy boys, I am always looking for fast, simple and cheap lunch recipes. I also like to find a way to use up any left overs from the night before. I am usually pretty good at coming up with new things for dinner but sometimes I just run out of ideas or don’t have a lot of time.
Here are a few idea for you.
Tortilla Roll Ups – Spread cream cheese and a couple slices of deli meat onto a flour tortilla… roll it up and eat! I like mine with honey ham. You can eat it like burrito style or slice it up like pinwheels
Vanilla Fruit Salad – Very easy, fill a salad bowl with large squares of fresh fruit. Whatever kind you like or is on sale! Pour a carton of Vanilla Yogurt (it has to be vanilla flavored!) over the fruit for a sauce. That’s it!
Traditional Pudding Pops – Prepare a box of instant pudding just like it says on the box. Pour it into popcycle molds and pop it in the freezer. We like Chocolate best but there are so many kinds of pudding out there, have fun with it! Cheesecake was delicious also!
