I didn’t coin the phrase Snack Supper, I got the idea from Vicki Farris’ book A Mom Just Like You which I highly recommend. Im pretty sure she brought it up for lunches on busy homeschool days, but we use it mostly for supper on days when we don’t want to cook, on days when it is just too hot to cook, and on days when we have lots and lots of fresh produce that needs eaten quick. We focus on quick, easy and HEALTHY Snack ideas which together make a fun and healthy meal!

Need to get a meal on the table quickly?  Have you tried a snack supper?  It's a great way to get a meal to the table fast AND an easy way to include veggies, fruit, protein and the occasional carb.

The Snack Supper is a great way to get a meal to the table fast. Veggies, fruit, protein and even a few carbs… This is very kid-friendly eating and your kids of getting lots of fresh and raw fruits and veggies. It’s a win-win!  Here are some of  things we use in our snack suppers at the Blevins house.

  1. Deviled eggs (Learn how to make deviled eggs fast and easy here.)
  2. Red pepper slices
  3. Celery with nut butter or ranch dip
  4.  Apple slices
  5. Grapes
  6. Cheeses – any kind – sliced. We like to try new cheeses as a special treat!
  7. Summer sausage, hard salami, or soft salami
  8. Deli meats
  9. Melon slices
  10. Various whole grain crackers
  11. French bread or other deli loaf
  12. Peanut butter
  13. Almond butter
  14. Tahini
  15. Salsa
  16. Ranch dressing
  17. Hummus (learn how to make delicious hummus here.)
  18. Carrots
  19. Edamame
  20. Sliced cucumber (sometimes soaked in salt water)
  21. Sliced zucchini
  22. Nuts
  23. Baked crunchy peas, beans, or corn
  24. Salted avocado slices
  25. Cheese spread or homemade cheeseball
  26. Cottage cheese
  27. Frozen fruit
  28. Guacamole
  29. Dried fruits
  30. Candied fruits
  31. Fruit salad
  32. Apple Chutney for crackers or bread (learn how to make healthful Apple Chutney here.)

Get creative and try something new!  For instance, when I slice red pepper for a snack supper, I typically cut it in round slices that look like flowers.  Fun shapes make eating more fun somehow! Read about how I get my Kids to Eat Veggies for ideas.
