For protein i will give her crackers or a slice of bread with peanut butter or, for a super special treat (rarely) - nutella (hazelnut/chocolate spread) spread on them. Mmm... I want some nutella. Hahah guilty pleasure! If I have a bit of leftover chicken, i will wrap that in 1/2 a tortilla for a snack for her with a dab of ranch dressing. If i have something like avacado, I will spread that on the tortilla too. Usually for snacks it's leftovers if I have them, or something like cold cucumber and carrot sticks... crackers... cheese... cold farmer's sausage... stuff like that. My general rule is for snacks I DON'T COOK. So, it's leftovers and cold stuff i can cut up. whatever fruit and veggies are there. :-) If she doesn't want to eat it then she can go hungry until supper. If i have bran muffins or something leftover from breakfast, she can have that, too. or dry cereal. whatever. lol. |
