Well the one year anniversary of Healthy Kiddo Snacks has quietly passed us by. In that time this website has grown steadily, completely changed appearance several times over, progressed from a point and click camera to a DSL and aided in the indoctrination of a new sous chef in my kitchen, my one year old toddler with the hardy appetite. It's been so much fun and I have learned a ton. I can't wait for another year of exploration into the world of natural, affordable, easy-to-find foods.
In celebration I looked up which recipe Igets the most hits on this website. My creamy apple dipping sauce is a recipe that continually draws people in, and it's also one of my first. I put it together before I even had this blog up and running so it's never really been featured, so now is the time to remedy that glitch.
As for its merits this snack has quite a few. It crosses three of the four food groups (dairy, fruit, protein). It also is really easy to make and you don't even have to measure your ingredients out, just go by taste. It also only uses ingredients that are easy to find at your grocery store, so no need to go hunting for flax seeds this time around.
If you want to up the cuteness in this recipe you can use an apple as a serving bowl, as shown in the picture above. Simply cute an apple in half, then scoop out the center of one half with a melon baller. Viola, you have a fun, edible bowl to serve your dipping sauce in. Enjoy!
