fun eats: Valentine Snack Mix

Monday, January 21, 2013 34 Comments

Valentine Snack Mix https://www.mamamiss.com ©2013

 

To celebrate the upcoming holiday, and to get myself & the kiddos in the pink & red spirit, I made this fun Valentine snack mix!!!

sshhhh – I actually made it last year too, but I didn’t have a blog then so I had no one to share it with (until now!)!!

It’s such a simple concept.

All you have to do is grab anything cereal/snack related that is pink, red, or white (or hearts!) & throw it all together for a fun colorful snack mix that the kiddos will undoubtedly love (& you will too of course ;).





hearts + yummies + kiddos = a whole mess of happiness ;)

♥ the specifics for mine ♥

heart cereal

freeze dried strawberries

strawberry shredded wheat

strawberry fruit snacks

yogurt covered cranberries

m&m pink mix

…you kind also find the quick 10 step tutorial for the little treat bag here!

      Hi Jodi!!! I didn’t really measure – just kinda threw it together. Maybe try a cup of the big stuff & the cereal. And the candies & sugary stuff maybe only 1/4 cup. Be creative & experiment with what works for your kiddos :)) Target also has some yummy FD strawberries too :) Hope that helps a little – enjoy! Thanks for stopping by & checking it out!! xx ♥ m

    That is the greatest pink snack mix…I love the heart cereal. What kind is that? I’m not sure I have ever seen cereal in the shape of a heart!

These Cookie Butter Muddy Buddies are soooooo yumm These Cookie Butter Muddy Buddies are soooooo yummy - I know cause I may have snuck a chunk fresh from the bag 😜 #shhhhdonttell 

I completely forgot that I put this recipe up (on the ol’ blog) forever ago & was reminded of it today. The kids wanted to try a bag of muddy buddies from Wawa & I said fresh muddy buddies are soooo much better… and fresh warm muddy buddies with @traderjoes #cookiebutter is to die for.  #youhavetotrythis #youwontregretit #traderjoesmusthaves

Car doodles in Procreate while waiting for V in ba Car doodles in Procreate while waiting for V in ballet tonight. 

As a creative, I often forget to take the time to just intentionally sit and draw, just to draw, with no clear path in mind.  To let the pen lead me in a direction. 

I don’t know who she is… she was just in my head ✍🏻🌼🌸
{V said she looks like if Frida had a daughter} 🤔😆🤷🏼‍♀️

It felt good tho - really really good - to just draw.

✔️Me Time Goal: be more intentional with loose, process based, no rules, creative time.

Speaking of yummy breakfast. Let’s forget the Speaking of yummy breakfast. 

Let’s forget the kiddos & their fruit platter for a moment shall we 😉

This is my EVERYDAY breakfast - my strawberry chocolate protein shake! 

🍓🍫After working on several protein shake concoctions for the past year… trying to find the best tasting/best macro ratio/least calorie one for me - this is it. I have this every morning after my workout… literally every morning. I will also make it with the Afterburn vanilla plant based (the whey based one is too much for my stomach) protein powder too, but I prefer the chocolate. 

(swipe for ingredients/macro breakdown)

Now, protein shakes… yeah I know, ewwww, right?! Noooooo!  Guys, before I started at Burn, almost a year ago, the last protein shake I had was over 20 years ago (when I was fitness crazed twenty something) - I HATED protein shakes.  They were sooooo gross that I used to hold my nose to drink them quickly… they were nasty. #nojoke #iheldmynose

Friends, protein powder has come a looooonnnnng way in 20 years!  Now I don’t know about other protein powders out there, I looked around a little, but I couldn’t find anything comparable to the calorie/macro ratio that Afterburn has.  #notanad #myhonesttogoodnessopinion
Kiddos breakfast today. 🤗 I love doing little Kiddos breakfast today. 🤗

I love doing little boards like this for the kids meals - you get the most bang for your buck. Plus, it looks more fancy & complicated than it really is - it’s really just fruit placed on a plate with yogurt & waffles. 

They each get their own board. #becausesiblings #noexplanationneeded 

I only got a pic of one plate because T started devouring it before I could snap a pic 😆

Their boards today have:
🍓🫐 🍌
strawberries
raspberries 
blueberries 
bananas
satsuma mandarins
clementines
blackberries
blood oranges
yogurt
blueberry waffles 

I give them a fork and a spoon - the yogurt can be used for dipping or just eaten as yogurt.
