Nutritious Halloween-Themed Snacks
Halloween is right around the corner. And that means our angelic children will soon turn into little demons and monsters after consuming copious amounts of sugar.
What if we could forgo all that sugar (and all of those unpleasant sugar crashes?) instead of feeding our kids healthy snacks this year?
The following snacks are fun, festive, and, best of all, healthy AND delicious!
Cheese Monsters
So simple and so cute. Take some mini Babel cheese rounds, cut out a jagged mouth line in the red casing, glue on a few wacky eyes to the upper part, and abracadabra – you’ve got a festive, healthy snack.
Halloween Fruit Salad
You only need your imagination, fruit, and some good cutting skills for this delicious salad. You can also use spooky cookie cutters to get ghost, cat, and pumpkin shapes from apple, pineapple, watermelon, and cantaloupe slices. Use a little food coloring to create tiny eyes; your kids will be thrilled to eat their produce!
Healthy Halloween Mummy Pizzas
Who says Halloween can’t be savory? These mini-pizzas are super flavorful, and they look terrific! As a bonus, these mummy pizzas are gluten-free!
Pumpkin Spice Granola Cups with Yogurt
Granola gives your kids the sweet and crunch they desire without unnecessary sugar. This healthy treat also has a beautiful pumpkin spice flavor, and you can top it with your child’s favorite yogurt.
Pumpkin Hummus for Kids
It’s super simple and incredibly healthy. Kids will love to dig into this hummus with various sliced veggies or pita chips!
Halloween Banana Popsicles
This is a fun and easy snack with yogurt and banana slices. And they are incredibly fun to decorate.
Halloween Pumpkin Deviled Eggs
Sometimes, the perfect nutritious Halloween snack stares you right in the face! These deviled eggs are a great way to get some necessary protein into your kids.
Don’t forget to get your kids involved in making these snacks. Sometimes, preparation is almost as fun as eating! A spooky and delicious Halloween to you and yours!
