Back-to-School Recipes

 
I thought I'd gather up a collection of some kid-friendly recipes and ideas as many of us embark upon a new school year this time of year.  Some of these are breakfast ideas while some are more after school snack-centered.  You'll find ideas for creative ways to pack lunches for your kiddos and a few ideas for quick, fun dinners that will be sure to please picky palettes.  Some of these work great, too, if you're assigned to bring snacks for the classroom - the Broken Glass Jello is perfect to make using your school colors or holiday colors.

The links below correspond to the numbered photos above for easier reference.

  1. Make-Ahead Freezer Smoothie Packets
  2. Pepperoni Pizza Puffs
  3. No-Bake M&M Granola Bars
  4. Slow Cooker Overnight Steel Cut Oats
  5. Morning Glory Muffins
  6. No-Bake Energy Bites
  7. Individual Mexican Dips "To Go"
  8. Fiesta Taco Wonton Cups
  9. Broken Glass Jello
  10. Quick and Easy Mini Pizzas
  11. Granola
  12. Our Version of the Bento Box

And, if you're looking for some weeknight dinner ideas for the school year, my Slow Cooker Recipe Collection may be just what you need.
