With snow days dotting the calendar, we teamed up with Claudine Dagit, natural foods chef of Cooking with Claudine and co-founder of the 10 Day Health Challenge, to create some healthy, fun, and yummy snow-day snacks to make with the kids. No snow in your future? No worries! These snacks are perfect anytime, such as an after-school snack or served up for a Sunday movie marathon during school vacation.
Snacky S’mores Popcorn
Prepare four cups of plain popcorn, add to large bowl, and drizzle over 1/4 cup melted dark chocolate, 1/3 cup crushed graham crackers, and 1 cup of mini marshmallows.
Red, White & Yum Popcorn
Prepare four cups of plain popcorn, add to large bowl, and drizzle over 1/4 cup melted white chocolate, 1/3 cup dried cranberries, and 1/3 cup slivered almonds.
Poppin’ Kale
Tear 2 cups of kale into 2-inch pieces and roast in coconut oil on pan in 400-degree preheated oven for 10 minutes until crispy. Prepare four cups of plain popcorn, add to large bowl, and toss in the kale, 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese, sea salt, and freshly ground pepper.
