I love puppy chow, muddy buddies, or whatever else you want to call it. Chocolate covered Chex coated in sugar is pretty much always a hit! We made Cake Mix Puppy Chow for Christmas while we were visiting my grandparents and it was delicious. We ended up making extra to leave there because my grandfather seemed to really enjoy it, too. Today's Chocolate Strawberry Puppy Chow is perfect for Valentine's Day. I love that puppy chow is easy to get the kid's involved. Kids can help stir the … [Read more...]

This post may contain affiliate links, meaning I may make money when you purchase through them.

If you have been following along with our Mini Chef Mondays posts, you know how much the boys love to help in the kitchen. Owen wants to do absolutely everything Charlie does, but it's hard because he's only two. Even though it would be so much easier to just do everything myself, I take the time to let the boys help me. Even at two years old, there is plenty that can be done in the kitchen! Not only is it fun for them, but being in the kitchen at such a young age is a great way to … [Read more...]
