Kid-Friendly Snacks the Whole Family Will Love
(firmenpresse) - MISSION, KS -- (Marketwire) -- 10/11/12 -- (Family Features) Whether it's kids hanging out with friends after school or you watching the game with neighbors, there are plenty of reasons to have kid-friendly snacks that grown-ups will enjoy, too. One way to keep everybody happy is to bring cheese into the mix.
Cheese is versatile, nutritious and can add zest to snacks and family-friendly dishes. And with a broad array of appetizing flavors such as Gouda, Provolone and Pepper Jack, available from Borden® Cheese, the options are boundless.
Here are a few cheesy snack ideas that you and the kids will enjoy making as much as you enjoy eating.
Walking tacos - Layer taco meat, tomatoes, lettuce and shredded cheese in individual serving-sized bags of corn chips. Top them off with sour cream, guacamole or salsa, then eat them with a fork, right out of the bag.
Baked mac and cheese bites - Spoon your favorite baked macaroni and cheese recipe into mini-muffin tins and bake.
Kebabs - Alternate chunks of ham, grapes, and cheese cut into shapes with a small cookie cutter.
String cheese dippers - Roll string cheese in breadcrumbs and bake. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.
Mini quesadillas - Sandwich cheese, shredded chicken and salsa in between two tortillas. Bake until cheese has melted. Slice into triangles with a pizza cutter, and serve with salsa and sour cream.
Pinwheel wraps - Spread a thin layer of ranch dressing on a flour tortilla. Layer sliced cheese and ham on top. Roll up, and cut into bite-sized pinwheels.
You can also try these Pizza Bagel Snacks and Italian Rosemary Cheese Straws. Both recipes use Borden Cheese, which is made by a cooperative that is 100 percent farmer-owned. This means that for every product purchased, 100 percent of its proceeds go back to hard-working American dairy farmers and their families.
