After School Snack Ideas

School has been underway for a week here in Portland.  Even though I no longer have anyone living at home who is in school, I remember those days well.  Now, instead of a child coming home from school that is hungry and looking for something to eat, I have a husband who comes home from work and is hungry and looking for something to eat.  He is at work early (6:00 am) so when he gets home around 3:00 pm, he’s hungry and ready for a snack since he eats lunch so early.

Today I’ve partnered with Albertsons and Safeway to share with you one of my favorite ideas for an after school snack or after work snack!  I’ve learned a few tricks over all those years of preparing after school snacks for my four kids.

Top Tips for After School Snack Ideas

 Variety – Kids love choices.  If you have more than one child you know that no two children like the same thing.  Putting together an after school snack idea with something for everyone is easy to do with the help of Albertsons exclusive O Organics® brand.  I love having foods of different colors, different flavors and different textures. Something salty, sweet, crunchy, soft and spicy.
