Assignment #17 - After School Snack Time

Today’s assignment is to post a few of your favorite snacks. If they are homemade, share a recipe. Take time this week evaluate your snack and share ways that you can make this healthy for you and your family.

Well, I would like to say that we eat celery and peanut butter with raisins sprinkled on top. But we are not very healthy in the area of snacking. Here are a couple of recipes that we enjoy.

Pepperoni Dip

Ingredients

8 oz. Sour Cream

8 oz. Cream Cheese

8 oz. Can of Tomato Sauce

Oregano and Garlic to taste

8 oz. Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

8 oz. Stick Pepperoni – Diced (Stick works better than the slices)

Directions

Combine above ingredients and bake at 300 degree for approximately 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Serve with sliced French bread.

No Bake Cookies

¼ lb. margarine or butter

2 cups sugar

2 Tablespoons cocoa

½ cup milk

½ cup peanut butter

1 teaspoon vanilla

3 cups quick cooking oats

Melt margarine. Mix margarine, sugar, cocoa, and milk. Boil 2 minutes. Take off burner. Add peanut butter; stir. Add vanilla and oats; stir. Drop by spoon onto waxed paper. Let cool.

For some more wholesome choices, we also like tomatoes with grated cheese on top, carrot sticks, cucumbers, apples and applesauce.
