Thanks to @lemonsandbasil for this recipe.
Step 1: For the cheese and crackers: Cut cheese slices with small cookie cutter to make fun, special shapes. To keep the cheese from making the crackers soft, wrap the cheese slice in a small piece of plastic wrap or put crackers in a small, snack size bag.
Step 2: For the hummus and veggies: Add 2-4 tablespoons of hummus to the bento box, along with the carrot, cucumber and bell pepper sticks.
Step 3: For the fruit kabobs: Alternate strawberry, blueberry and kiwi pieces on toothpicks and add 4-5 mini fruit kabobs to each box.
Step 4: Finally, add 5-6 Sprouts Chocolate Coconut Rolls to the box.
This hummus and veggie wrap is paired with poppable cheese cubes, fresh fruit and addictive peanut butter puffs for an easy, vegetarian lunch your kids will crave every day.
Thanks to @40aprons for this recipe.
Step 1: Spread 2 tablespoons of hummus on the wrap, making sure it goes all the way to edge.
Step 2: Place lettuce leaf down then sprinkle veggies over. Tightly roll then cut into pinwheel slices.
Step 3: Serve with cubes of cheese or slices pressed into cute shapes, fresh berries or fruit, hard-boiled egg and Sprouts Peanut Butter Puffs.
Step 1: Mix your chocolate peanut butter spread by combing 1/2 cup of peanut butter, 2 tablespoons cocoa powder and 2 tablespoons of honey in a small bowl. Mix until a smooth consistency is reached and cocoa powder is all mixed in.
Step 2: To assemble animal faces, line up rice cakes, then chose your base spread. For example, use the chocolate peanut butter spread for the monkeys and one fish, then use the regular peanut butter for the dogs and remaining fish.
Step 3: Create the monkey: Spread out your nut butter of choice. Drizzle with a little extra honey, if desired. Then cut your banana to make the upper and lower part of the nose/snout. Finally, add the cashews for ears.
Step 4: Create the fish: Use your spread of choice over the whole rice cake, drizzle with a little extra honey, if desired. Then cut a small triangle out of a couple of the banana circles to make the back fin. Put that on the far side of the rice cake, slightly hanging off, then layer 3-4 round banana slices to create the scales. Finally, select a small blueberry for the eye and a piece of dried from for the mouth or a little apple slice.
Step 5: Create the dog: Spread out your nut butter of choice over the whole rice cake, drizzle extra honey if desired, then use the thinly sliced, half-circle apples to create the dog ears. Use small blueberries for the eyes, then a banana slice and blueberry for the mouth/nose.
Step 1: Add all your ingredients for the dip (cream cheese, yogurt, peanut butter, coconut flour, maple syrup, vanilla extract, almond extract and cinnamon) to a food processor or high-powered blender and process until smooth.
Step 2: Serve with your choice of fruit, crackers and other snacks!
Step 1: Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the rice cereal and oats.
Step 3: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, stir together the brown sugar and honey until just boiling. Remove from heat and stir in the peanut butter and vanilla until well combined.
Step 4: Pour over the dry ingredients in the bowl and mix with a wooden spoon.
Step 5: Stir in the walnuts and let cool slightly before adding the chocolate chips.
Step 6: Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish with a spatula and press until it is evenly distributed.
Step 7: Place into the refrigerator to chill until firm then slice bars into the desired size and serve.
Step 1: Combine the yogurt with the So Delicious CocoWhip Coconut Whipped Topping and crushed pineapple.
Step 2: Mix to combine.
Step 3: Serve with fruit of choice for dipping.
Step 1: Add 1 cup rolled oats and 1/2 cup flax seeds to food processor and blitz until blended well. Break up the oats so the texture is a nice grain but not a flour.
Step 2: Add in 1/2 cup Sprouts Creamy No Stir Peanut Butter, 1/4 cup honey and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Blend again until well combined.
Step 3: Transfer to bowl and stir in 1/2 cup chocolate chips, or add chocolate chips to food processor and pulse a few times to combine.
Step 4: Transfer bowl or food processor bowl to the fridge and chill 20-30 minutes to make the dough easier to roll.
Step 5: Scoop the mixture into balls and press mixture in firmly. Roll between palms to form rounded balls. You may have to work the dough in your hands if it gets crumbly, but just keep pressing it together to form a solid piece.
Colorful and bursting with flavor, these simple shrimp fajitas are ready in under 30 minutes for a fast, weeknight meal.
