Kid Friendly Game Day Snacks






Fall is finally upon us. This means that both NHL and NFL fans everywhere are excited and cheering for their favourite teams.

Hockey fans and football fans have a couple of things in common:

1 . They are passionate about their favourite sport

2 . Game day goes hand in hand with awesome food

The most talked about tailgating dishes tend to be on the not so healthy end of things. Tasty? Sure! Great idea every game? Not so much. I've come up with three game day snacks that are yummy, fun to eat, easy to make and KID Friendly!




For this snack, you will need:

Apples
Vanilla Yogurt
Honey
Chia Seeds
Cinnamon Sugar

  • Wash, peel and core the apple
  • Cut the apple into french fry style wedges
  • Toss apple wedges in cinnamon sugar
  • Mix vanilla yogurt with honey and chia seeds
Now it's time to dip the wedges into the honey chia yogurt mixture and enjoy!







For this snack, you will need:

Gluten-Free Wraps (I used Udi's)
Bananas
Peanut Butter
Nutella

  • Microwave gluten-free wraps for about 20 seconds so they are pliable
  • Cut wraps into one-inch strips
  • Slice bananas so they are an inch wide
  • Spread peanut butter on some strips & Nutella on the remaining ones
  • Place banana on wrap and roll up until wrap is secure

Plate and eat!







For this snack, you will need:

Grapes 
Kielbasa
Cheese 

  • Wash grapes
  • Cut kielbasa and cheese into bite-sized cubes
  • Place items on skewers


Voila! You have a quick and healthy snack!




What are some of YOUR go-to game day snacks?

Feast - Gluten-Free, Done Right


I need to share with you guys a fantastic shop in Toronto. It's called Feast and boy, is it heavenly! A friend of my husband's suggested the shop to him a while ago. Unfortunately, we don't visit the city much due to the travel distance. We did, however, see a Blue Jays game recently. This gave us the opportunity to visit Feast!


The first thing I noticed when we got to Feast  was the sign out front. The inside of the shop is cozy and cute. What's super cool is that the owners have done a stellar job creating a cafe which doubles as a pantry shop.






Feast isn't your average everyday store. It's top eight allergy friendly fine food. The owners have strict allergen standards in place to ensure safety. They create a lot of food in house, as you can tell by the awesomeness that is below. Just look at those gluten-free Pocket Pies!






Gluten-Free Donuts. Need I say more?





I went for the "Tripple Chocolate Donut" which retails for $3.50 and it was divine! I would compare it to the awesomeness that is Erin Mckenna's Bakery (formerly Babycakes) in Disney Springs, Orlando. The donut is epic so make sure to try this light and delicious piece of heaven!




I did some pantry shopping as well. One of the many items I bought was this Spice Market gem. Three 5 inch mini pizza crusts for $5.00. Taste, texture and all sorts of goodness in this product!





Check out that sweet little sit-down spot inside. Perfect for enjoying a Pocket Pie and Salad.





Feast is located at 881 Queen Street W. Toronto, ON.

Can't make it to Toronto but want to check out the goods? No problem! Items can be shipped across Canada. Simply visit their online shopping catalogue and you can order all sorts of gluten-free products.


They have also teamed up with Hurrier to deliver Feast made products to addresses within a 3km radius. Items will be at your door in an hour.
