Every yr I try to toss stuff wholesome into the vacation combine. Every yr nobody reads my missives.

The worst month for Snack Girl is December. Why? I spend most of my time advocating for vegatables and fruits and December just isn’t the time of yr that anybody needs to listen to my concepts.

January is my prime month as a result of all of us come to our senses and begin consuming more healthy. Then the yr goes slowly down hill with peaks and valleys till we get to December (my backside).

Do I hand over? No! I maintain attempting to give you vacation meals that includes fruit and greens equivalent to my Strawberry Santa Hats and my Veggie Christmas Tree.

You is not going to see buttery, crisp Christmas cookies on this web site. No, I share with you CELERY.

Celery is usually a vacation meals in the event you gown it up. I made these cute reindeer snacks for my youngsters and so they really ate them and smiled. If you may make a 13 yr previous boy smile with celery – why wouldn’t you?

Celery and peanut butter is a basic. You get the crunch of the celery and the stunning smoothness of the peanut butter. In addition to this snack being scrumptious, you’ll be able to’t actually get more healthy. We all want a little bit of protein and wholesome fats to go together with our greens.

I eat peanut butter and celery – celery and cottage cheese – celery and ranch dressing – or simply celery! I’ve discovered that if I lower it up and put it out – everybody eats it. The secret is to make it obtainable.

Celery is actually fantastic as a result of not like lettuce – celery retains in your fridge for no less than per week. You will at all times discover it in my vegetable drawer for once I can’t make it to the shop and I want a recent vegetable.
