Finger Foods For Kiddos

So these foods are for kids big enough to chew things like raw carrots . . .if your kid isn't to that point, this list is not for you!

~ Cauliflower
~ Jicama, peeled and sliced or cut French Fry style
~ Sweet potatoes, peeled and cut French Fry style
~Bell Peppers in slices
~Cherry Tomatoes
~Cucumber slices;  my kids love them in lime juice with salt

I was surprised that my Little Girl took to cauliflower and tomatoes like they were the best things since ice cream but wasn't as fond of the sweet potatoes and jicama . . .I did have to remember that it is so important to quarter the cherry tomatoes with little people.

And if you're in the mood for something hot, try this:

One or two cans of garbanzo beans ( chickpeas) drained and tossed in olive oil.  Season with salt or seasoning salt.   Bake at 425 for 15 to 20 min.  Check them and when they are starting to be a little brown and crispy turn them.  Cook a little longer until they are mostly crispy.  Serve with whatever sauces your kiddos like with fries.

Enjoy!
