3 fun and healthy snacks for school

How about these fun and easy recipes for back to school?

The most awaited moment of the afternoon for children is undoubtedly the time to open the backpack and finally get the snack, although sometimes it can become something boring.

For lack of time or ideas we ended up making the typical sandwich with sausage, cheese or chocolate. Worse still, sometimes we fall into the easiest but less healthy option: industrial bakery.

Feeding these kinds of snacks to our children every day is not a good idea, since industrial buns and muffins have many sugars and fats that can be negative in the diet of the little ones.

To make this meal easier for parents and more fun and healthy for children, we give you three recipes to turn the snack into one of the best moments of the day. There is no excuse for boring snacks anymore!
