Ants on a Log
I made these today for an afternoon snack. My sisters and Hayden thought they were a HIT!
What you'll need:
Celery
Peanut Butter or Cream Cheese
"Ants" (M&M's, Chocolate Chips, or Raisins)
Directions:
1. Wash & Cut celery into medium-sized "logs"
2. Spread peanut butter or other spread onto celery
3. Place your "ants" on top in a row
4. Put on plates and enjoy!!
These were so easy to make and they're relatively healthy.
Side Note: Your toddler can help wash the celery, spread the topping, or put on the "ants." Children eat better when they know that they helped make the snack or meal!!
