Those are so simple, but sometimes (most of the time) when it comes to feeding people I just panic and it all devolves into chaos until I put on some soothing music and take a deep breath and say a prayer and then throw some crackers at them. Thank you thank you thank you. betsyannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00361149174776820425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37669247.post-30536156564627086012013-09-18T20:36:51.826-05:002013-09-18T20:36:51.826-05:00HAHA, I saw that same post on Pinterest and went t...HAHA, I saw that same post on Pinterest and went through the same though process. <br />My ideas are: bake up 24 healthy banana muffins, freeze them the same day. Take 3 out 30 minutes before snack time. Fresh and filing. <br />Carrot sticks and hummus. My kids love it and you can buy great hummus at SAMS to save time. Also, like Melanie, we do smoothies. It's the only way to get Iris to eat fruits and veggies. The easiest one that all my kids love is 1 banana, 1 C. yogurt, 1 C. spinach. I just tried it out on the two big kids today. They asked for more.

I tend to lean towards something with more protein (peanut butter, hummus, cheese, yogurt, even hard-boiled eggs)to really attack the hangries and keep the kids from snacking up until dinner time. You can do it! :)Roach Mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15898409555880346453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37669247.post-20311955985174969342013-09-18T18:16:38.633-05:002013-09-18T18:16:38.633-05:00There are still Snickers in the freezer.

Melt cheese and a piece of lunchmeat on a tortilla and roll it up. Or PB on a tortilla. Cheese and crackers, PB and crackers, baby carrots and ranch, (or PB). Cut up bell peppers and ranch, sliced apples and PB. (Have you caught on to the themes in our house yet?) I like to make a bunch of muffins, freeze them, then nuke them at snacktime. Smoothies (but they aren't quite as quick)Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08332490569970987627noreply@blogger.com
