This Despicable Me Minion Munchies Snack Mix is sweet, salty, and loaded with yummy treats for your next family movie night!
I’ve been a little disconnected from my desserts lately but in my defense I will say it’s been for a good reason. Even though I have changed many things about my current diet in hopes of following a healthier lifestyle, a girl likes to have a treat here and there. For someone like me who loves to bake there really is no clean break from fulfilling an aching sweet tooth. It comes. It goes. It lurks in the shadows morning, noon, and night. This is why I love making mini desserts that I can enjoy on my own or share with a fellow sugar bug, usually my little person who loves them just as much as I do. After all, it IS summer and I can’t let it slip away without making my delicious Mini Salted Caramel Apple Crisps!

Did you enjoy your Easter? We sure did. I survived the food induced coma from last weekend and am ready to soak up the rest of Spring. The weather has been beautiful here in Florida. For once it isn’t unbearably hot, humid, and raining. We’ve been spending much more time enjoying being outside while winding down after a long day at school. If your kids are anything like mine then the first thing they do when they walk through the door is request a snack before they start homework. Toodie’s preference is always vanilla ice cream with chocolate powder sprinkled on top. Apparently, this is “healthy” because ice cream is made from milk and milk comes from cows and cows are animals that live on a farm. The logic of a little person. This is not exactly mom’s idea of a nutritious snack even though it looks as yummy as it sounds.

Are you ready for another simple football snack that is sure to be a crowd pleaser on game day? It’s got crunch, a little heat, fresh ranch dressing, and it’s topped with a creamy medley of cheeses. Like I explained in my previous post football season, especially Superbowl, attracts the fans and also the grubbers. Even if you are watching the game alone you have to have something to snack on. That something needs to be easy to make and enjoyable to consume.

Last week I picked up a copy of the Better Homes & Gardens newest Halloween Tricks & Treats edition for 2014. Normally I head straight to Pinterest when looking for ideas and inspiration but I am loving the quick and clever creations within the pages of this seasonal magazine. Inspired by a set of bright green pretzel rods decorated with eyeballs, I re-created my own version of spooky salted sticks. These Eerie Eyeball Pretzel Rods are easy to make and also adorable for Halloween. Since my trial run was a success I plan on making these for Toodie’s class next month. They are just the right amount of creepy and can be individually wrapped for each child to enjoy!

Individually they are two of my favorite foods and also ingredients. When you put them together it’s pure magic! Heavenly some would say. Open up the gates ’cause i’m coming on in.
