The 20 Best Snacks for Kids

by SP on September 30th, 2006

Toss the junk food! Our nutritious munchies taste so great, your child will never guess they’re good for him.

And what comes in as number one… you guessed it. Trusty old peanut butter, but their are nineteen others that the kids are not going to turn their noses up at. Chances are… you are going to like them too!

My favorite…

Santa fe quesadilla maker - QM2SFR“Quesadillas– Cheesy quesadillas are a calcium-rich snack that’s got protein as well. You can mix anything with the cheese: chopped vegetables, leftover cooked chicken, or even shrimp. Try our Quesadilla Twisters, which are easy to make and fun for kids to hold. Between the folate in the corn, the lycopene in the tomato, and the iron in the spinach, this snack really packs a nutritional punch.”

Works for me!

    When I’m feeling a Taco Bell or Long John Silver craving, I’ll take the kids to one of those combo restaurants. I always order the kids the cheese quesadilla, but we call them Grilled Cheese Tacos. They like them better by that name.

    We actually make the homemade sweet potato chips for dinner fairly regularly.
