We haven’t yet had a big, hard snow fall in Nebraska. I’m sure it’s coming sometime. The boys are really looking forward to some Snow Ice Cream. It is SO worth the uncontrollable shivering and blue lips to eat Snow Ice Cream.
While we eagerly (sort of) await some snow…we’re having fun making some (warm) snow related food.
See, check out our cute Snowmen Pancakes:
I just used my regular Simple Soaked Pancake recipe with these mini soy free chocolate chips I order from Amazon. Sometimes our snowmen receive randomly placed buttons and eyeballs when we accidentally drop a chocolate chip in the wrong spot. You’ve gotta love a snowman with freckles.
We also had a lot of fun last week making Snowflake Quesadillas:
And…I thought I’d share this idea sent to me last year. One reader, Jenny, used my whole wheat soft pretzel recipe to make Pretzel Snowmen. Too cute to eat…almost.
I wonder when my kids will outgrow “cute food”. Eh, as long as it’s FOOD, they’ll keep humoring me, right?
Wait! Do people outgrow cute food?
Also, VERY cute pancake idea! Can’t wait to use it.
Thanks. :-)
Cute! My kids would love all of those ideas. I think I’ll try the pretzel snowman first. Looks yummy!
I love the pretzel!
My son lives on quesadillas….and what a great idea for January!! thanks!
I love the snowflake quesadilla and the pretzel snowman. Too cute.
What cute ideas! My 5 year old is insistent that unless it is snowing it is not winter. We live in the Atlanta area so I guess we skip winter in his opinion. :) Maybe some snow foods will be an ok substitute for the real thing!
