The holidays can be a time where people are always on the go, but making space for family time can build lasting memories. One way I build these memories with my family is by making fun snacks and meals together, like this food art snowman snack made with Quaker Chewy Holiday Minis Granola Bars! This snack is easy to make and works great to celebrate the winter season.

Who needs an easy and fun treat to serve this holiday season? I know I'm always looking for new ideas! That's why we've made these Life Cereal holiday-themed bars that are great for your family to make for dessert. 

We love Life Cereal for breakfast time so I figured...why does the morning have to have all of the fun? We decided that after dinner during Christmas is a great time to enjoy this recipe. So, take some time to celebrate the joys of togetherness this holiday season by taking Life beyond the cereal bowl. Besides Life Cereal, all you need are just a few more ingredients. Follow my easy directions below.

A Snoopy Christmas Food Art Lunch Recipe

 

Who doesn't love Snoopy at Christmas? Whether you watch A Charlie Brown Christmas, read Peanuts, or just enjoy everything Snoopy, this can be a fun and unexpected lunch! Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and the rest of the Peanuts gang are iconic and can make a great holiday recipe whether it's in a lunchbox or a snack during Christmas break.

For the side dishes, I just used some holiday-themed snacks that I found at the grocery store. The snowflakes are chips and the tree is a marshmallow dessert. I placed it on top of crackers and some sliced meat. Don't worry, the meat wasn't touching the marshmallow. To see how to make Snoopy, keep reading!

The Grinch Food Art Christmas Lunch Recipe

When you talk about the top classic Christmas movies and stories of all time, the Grinch has to be on that list. How the Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss is one of the most beloved children's books ever written and of course, the many movie versions are also popular every time this holiday season comes around. Most importantly my kids love it so I have to make them a fun food art Grinch lunch every year!

A Festive Christmas Tree Charcuterie Board Recipe for the Holidays

This is a sponsored post in partnership with Red Sun Farms. All opinions are my own. 

Charcuterie boards are some of the easiest meals to assemble and tastiest experiences you can have during the holidays. On every food board, you can provide enough variety to satisfy the pickiest kid and the most discerning palate in every family. This "Charcute-Tree" is no different. The trick is to start with some festive red or green foods which is why I used Red Sun Farms Tomatoes on the Vine to provide the seasonal flair.

Red Sun Farms tomatoes are sweet, juicy, and readily available at our local store. No matter the season, these are our go-to tomatoes! Make sure to look for them whenever you need fresh tomatoes, peppers, or cucumbers for any recipe. 

A Christmas Story Pink Nightmare School Lunch Recipe

If you've been around awhile, you know that one of my family's favorite Christmas movies is A Christmas Story. It is a classic and if you've never watched it, stop reading this, watch the entire thing, then come back for this recipe. I'll wait. Ok, you're all caught up now, good. I make my kids an A Christmas Story lunch every year and always try to add something new. This year I added a "You'll shoot your eye out" part of the lunch!
