I have been trying to include little treats for the kids out of what is left in the Halloween candy bucket...that bucket needs to leave my house. I'm finding myself digging in it. I know an easy way, but I just hate the idea of wasting candy and just throwing it away. And, I do love candy. You could tell me that the next piece of candy in that bucket would make me gain 10 pounds...I would eat it. It. Is. Horrible. Candy has always been my weakness. Back in high school, when I could eat like a teenager and never show it, my lunch would sometimes be a Snickers and a Slurpee from 7-11. Oh, the good old days. What I would do for a Slurpee (Icee) right now.
- Salami and Cheddar Cheese stick rolled onto a toothpick with some Potato Stix underneath as "hay."
- Pumpkin shaped sandwich (peanut butter) with three fruit snacks on top. I've gotten my kids off of all fruit snacks, so this was a special treat.
- Apple slices cut out with a pumpkin cookie cutter.
Bento Version:
- Leaf shaped sandwich (peanut butter) I made two sandwiches and stacked them.
- Salami and cheddar cheese on a toothpick
- Apple slices cut out with a pumpkin cookie cutter
- Mini silicone cupcake liner with raspberries
- Fruit snacks
Happy weekend to everyone! See you on Monday!
