Kid Friendly- Gluten Free -Snacks {Lazy Mom Approved}

Since being GLUTEN FREE what we eat has changed.  Our kitchen has done a 180....Our snacking habits have too.

We are definitely eating a better quality of food and the quantity has lowered considerably.  I am not sure why that is, I guess whole foods fill you up faster and longer than all those gluten rich crackers and cookies do...

So, here is a list of what we eat from breakfast to lunch to after school snacks.  They are all quick, simple, and kid friendly.  If it is something I cook, I cook it in mass and keep extra in the freezer.  I will update this list with recipe links and pictures as I make the next batch of goodies.  Most is pretty self explanatory though...

BREAKFAST

• Yogurt with Honey Nut Chex crumbled on top.
• Super Fancy Fruit and Yogurt Parfait   {Picture}
• Pamela's Muffins, I add blueberries or bananas to the batter.  Make 2 batches at once.  Kids nuke for a minute and YUMM, breakfast is done.
• Eggies To Go Cups {Recipe coming soon}

 LUNCH

• Cut Cheese Stick in half (width) & wrap w/ Lunch Meat. x2
• Kabob Skewer loaded with Black Olives, Grape Tomatoes, Peperoni, and Chunks of Cheese.  Could add other pizza topping...
• Waffle PB&J...I make a huge batch of waffles, she eats them like bread.  I've used GF Bisquick Mix and Pamela's mix, so far the Bisquick was better for waffles.
• LEFT OVERS...I bought Avery one of those $15 Thermos way back in the day...it is the best!!!  It keeps her lunch warm for hours!!  I nuke her food in the morning fill up the thermos and tada her lunch is done!!  

SNACKS

• Popcorn Chex Mix {My Favorite}
• Popcorn with any topping
• Fruit, Fruit, Fruit...LOTS of Fruit!!
• Rice Cakes with Jelly {Avery's Favorite}
• Bananas drizzled w/ Hershey's Syrup {Cole's Favorite}
• Veggies, Veggies, Veggies....LOTS of Veggies!!

POPCORN CHEX MIX

Pop 1 bag of Microwave Popcorn.

In a gallon sized baggie add  the following:

1/2 cup Wal-Mart Brand Trail Mix.  Mountain or Indulgent

1/2 cup Honey Nut Chex

1/2 cup Rice Chex

Now add the popped popcorn, be sure to leave the unpopped kernels out of the mix.

Seal and shake well to mix up....

Eat and enjoy!!
