Peanut shaped sandwich cookies
Vanilla flavored Almond bark or white dipping chocolate

Melt the vanilla flavored almond bark over low heat. Dip each cookie approximately 2/3 of the way down into the melted almond bark. Add two tiny chocolate chips or small candies for the eyes. Place on waxed paper to cool.

Honey Nut Cheerios Snack Mix
This is a great snack to put in your kids lunch box, or just a yummy snack to snack on. My 3 year old son Colin liked it, and so did I.
5 Cups Honey nut cheerios
1 Cup pretzel sticks or broken pretzels
1/4 cup Creamy peanut butter
2 tbs. Butter
1 cup Raisins
1 cup Honey roasted peanuts
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix cereal and pretzel sticks in a large bowl. Heat peanut butter and butter to boiling stirring occasionally: pour over cereal mixture. Toss until evenly coated. Spread in un-greased rectangular pan, 13x9 in. Bake uncovered 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from oven; stir in raisins and peanuts. Spread over waxed paper; cool completely. Store in airtight container.

Strawberry Smoothie
8 strawberries, hulled (I use 1 c. frozen strawberries and omit the ice cubes)
1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 scoop vanilla or plain protein powder (optional)
3 tablespoons white sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 cubes ice, crushed
In a blender combine strawberries, milk, yogurt, protein powder, sugar and vanilla. Toss in the ice. Blend until smooth and creamy. Pour into glasses and serve.
*You can do a lot of different variations of this smoothie. I add a scoop of plain or vanilla whey protein powder to give it 20 grams of protein, and I use Splenda instead of sugar to make it healthier. To give it some flavor variations, you can add another fruit like banana or kiwi. You can also replace the milk with orange juice. I have also used frozen mixed berries and it turns out really good! To get in a serving of veggies, throw in a cup of fresh baby spinach. It's good, I promise!
