Snack

Please tell me I’m not alone having preschool and preteen kids that seem to snack a bajillion times a day!?!  Here are recipes for easy snacks to feed the kids or anyone as quickly and easily as possible.

My favorite snacks are Farmhouse Blueberry Muffins and Oreo Rice Crispy Treats.

My kids eat a lot of applesauce and here’s the Instant Pot Applesauce that we enjoy making.  

My son has made these Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Applesauce Muffins several times.  He snacks on them as well as adds them to any meal of the day.

When I don’t know how to keep the snack box full cereal bars are my go to.  Cheerio Bars with M&Ms, Captain Crunch Bars and Chocolate & Peanut Butter Rice Crispies are some of the best!

Do you have any flavor combinations that make an excellent cereal bar?  If so please share them with me!
