Notes
Quick story: my kids call this the ‘movie-night mix.’ We make it in five minutes before the doorbell starts ringing.
Allergy swap: use plain mini pretzels and dye-free chocolates if needed.
Make it crunchier: add 1/2 cup roasted pumpkin seeds—see my healthy roasted pumpkin seeds snack.
Lunchbox booster: toss in 1/2 cup low-sugar granola—my kids like this pumpkin granola for fall lunchboxes.
Party idea: serve alongside a spooky breakfast bar with these fun Halloween waffles for kids.
