Does anyone else have kids that beg for snacks all day long? My girls could live on snacks if I let them. Now that they are in school at least they're not bugging me for snacks 24/7 but they come home famished (I have no idea why) and the first order of business is snack time. I usually rattle off the usual suspects and they've either already had it in their lunches or they aren't interested. I'm always looking for new ideas for snack time and when I find a hit I love to share it with you.
This snack is what I'm calling Epic Trail Mix. I love making a trail mix because you can change up the ingredients to keep things fresh and prevent boredom. Furthermore, they are always super simple to assemble and don't require any cooking or baking. The staple "ingredient" in this recipe is Goldfish Epic Crunch Nacho. My girls, along with any child I've ever met, love Goldfish so when I learned that Goldfish had a new product I knew I had to use them in this recipe. Goldfish Epic Crunch has a bigger, bolder tortilla crunch with a zesty nacho flavor. They are baked (never fried) with whole grain and contain no artificial preservatives. I combined them with rice chex, popcorn and pretzels.
Ingredients:
- 1 bag Goldfish Epic Crunch Nacho
- 1 cup Rice Chex Cereal
- 1 cup Pretzels
- 1 cup popped Popcorn
Directions:
Combine all ingredients and serve. Store in air tight container or bag. Consume within a few days because popcorn will lose its crunch.
You can find Goldfish Epic Crunch in the cracker aisle of your grocery store for an affordable price. I found them on an end cap so just a heads up to look there as well. In addition to Nacho flavor you can find Ranch and Honey BBQ.
Since we are in the Easter season I just had to share an oldie but goodie for an Easter-inspired snack. I filled pastry bags with Goldfish Epic Crunch and tied them with green ribbon to look like carrots. These are a hit and super simple to assemble. They are perfect for a fun after school snack or to add to your Easter party/menu.
