3 Easy-Prep Snacks

The title says it all. Granted I don't have ring-light or anything to make the food look better, but make the food and see if you like it instead!

The three recipes I tried were "cucumber sandwiches," blueberry-yogurt kebabs, and peanut butter energy bites.

The cucumber sandwiches are just what they look like. I found a picture on Pinterest and tried it. Pictured is double the amount of cheese and turkey that I used on the rest of the sandwiches, but you can sandwich anything between the cucumber but you still want it to be an easy bite. When I was done with them, they tasted pretty bland so I sprinkled them with some salt. They tasted okay; In another version, I might try is adding some cherry tomato.

The next one I tried was a Frozen Blueberry and Yogurt Kebab and I think it sounds better than it tastes, but don't get me wrong, it still tastes good.

Pre-Freezing Rolled in Yogurt Frozen

The process was fairly easy; The only thing I didn't like was trying to pull the frozen blueberries off of the kebab with my teeth. The coldness made my teeth sensitive. I pulled them out when they were frozen enough that the yogurt would hold onto the blueberries, but when I left them in longer and they actually froze, it was a little harder to eat them. I was actually cutting off pieces of the stick to eat them. Either way, they're a nice substitute for a sugary popsicle and worth a shot to try.

The third recipe I made was Peanut Butter Energy Bites and I have to say I loved these and so did my mom and younger sister. The ingredients, all five of them were simple and the whole process to make them took about ten minutes.

After mixing the ingredients, I put it in the fridge so that it would be easier to roll into balls and then my sister and I ate them.​​​​ In short, great recipe! Out of the three, I would totally recommend trying this one.
