I need to be more creative for fun, healthy snack options for after-school. Now that I work Full time I am trying to find that balance and how to be more proactive with snack options! I love your ideas!
Pam says
They all looks really great. My favorite would be those veggie bites but I know how much the rest of my family would love the pretzel rolls. These are really creative ideas.
maria s. says
They all look great but I love apples and cheese together so the apple cheese crackers would be my choice. Cheese is always a snack option in my house but I am picky with the cheese we eat and Arla Dofino sounds like a brand I can feel good about.
