Hey there! It’s Dee from Meatloaf and Melodrama, and I’m back this month with a tasty snack idea for the kiddos. I know it’s only the middle of August, but my crew started school already, and life is suddenly busy again. When the kids come home, they’re always super hungry, so I like to have some quick and easy snack options ready and waiting for them. I’m always pushing fruits and veggies, so I whipped up this easy Peanut Butter Yogurt Snack Dip, and the kids just love it!
Right before school began, I stocked up on plenty of easy snacks, and I tried to keep them as healthy as possible. My kids actually enjoy noshing on fresh fruits and veggies, especially apples, carrots and celery sticks, but they like them even more when they can pair these healthy options with a fun dip. And really, it’s not just them. I have to admit that I love dips as much as they do! I served this dip for the first time last week, and since then, I’ve made it two more times. It’s that good.
Basically, it’s just a mix of creamy peanut butter, vanilla yogurt, honey and cinnamon. How simple is that? You can definitely taste the peanut butter, but it’s not too overwhelming. One of my kids does not really care for peanut butter, but she still liked the dip. I personally love cinnamon, and I add it to just about everything. But if you’re not a fan, you can just as easily leave it out. It just adds a little bit of an extra kick.
I usually serve the dip with sliced apples, which is fine.
But sometimes, the kids like to get creative, so they top the apple slices with raisins.
And then they really get creative and add some yogurt-covered raisins. Trust me, this is an awesome combo!
Really, the possibilities are endless. You could also use graham crackers, pretzels or whatever you like. This peanut butter yogurt dip pretty much goes with anything!
