Back to School Snacks: Easy Frozen Yogurt Bites
It's Back to School Snack Time!
Are your kids going back to school? My daughter, Olivia, was getting ready to start her first week back in virtual school, so I knew that I needed to get ready with some easy snacks that she could grab and eat during lesson breaks.
The day before school started, we prepped a few easy snacks like:
- Mini protein boxes
- Fruit and yogurt parfaits, and...
- DIY Trail mix
And, it only took us about 10 mins to make these snacks! (Check out this IG post for how to make these snacks!)
Easy make ahead snacks are the best way to take the pressure off of you, as the parent, to drop everything and make a snack for your kids when hunger strikes. It ensures that you always have healthy snacks ready for your kids, and, if your kids help you make the snacks, they will know exactly what they want to eat and be more willing to try new ingredients!
Easy Frozen Yogurt Bites
This week, in my LIVE Cooking Show on my Get Nourished with Renata FB group, I shared a quick make ahead snack recipe for Easy Frozen Yogurt Bites.
Since the weather is so hot, a cool and refreshing snack is definitely the way to go! Plus, it tastes like a decadent sweet treat, but these Frozen Yogurt Bites are actually packed with good-for-you ingredients too!
