Dress up your everyday quesadillas (or sandwiches) by cutting them into Easter egg shapes and letting your kids decorate them. My son has just as much fun decorating healthy food as he does cupcakes and sugar cookies. And it's just one more way to make healthier fare fun and festive.
Mickey Mouse quesadillas made the perfect mess-free finger food for my son's Mickey Mouse Clubhouse 3rd birthday bash. Cutting Mickey Mouse shapes out of your quesadillas or sandwiches is fun any day!
This lasagna is a hearty, comforting meal that is perfect for a special Valentine's Day dinner. It's easy to do by simply cutting heart shapes out of the cooked lasagna noodles.
Make snowmen out of peanut butter snack balls for an easy, healthy and fun snack that will give your kids the energy they need to play all day in the snow.
Playing with food is not always a bad thing and in this case, it is the perfect way to turn your winter mealtimes into a fun art project {especially when indoor projects to keep your kiddos busy are sorely needed!}. This time around we made Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer pulling a sleigh full of toys.
Lunches around here have been pretty fun lately because my son and I have been using our Christmas and winter cookie cutters to make edible art scenes. This is one instance where I think playing with food is perfectly acceptable! It is especially perfect for a cold winter day when you need an indoor project.
Cutting cheese into shapes is super simple which allows you to make detailed scenes in a matter of minutes. The possibilities are endless and either you can serve your kids a completed scene or you can let them create their own.
Most kids like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, especially if they are cut into fun shapes. Of course, you can make any flavor of sandwich and cut them into any shape. This is a quick and easy snack for parties, adding some substantial food to the treat table while still sticking to the party theme.
I made green eggs and ham again to celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday which is tomorrow {March 2}. This time I used spinach juice instead of green food coloring to make the green eggs. The natural dye of the spinach turned the eggs a beautiful green and you won't even taste the spinach.
Dr. Seuss' birthday is tomorrow, March 2. Celebrate it by eating Green Eggs and Ham!
