Veggie sticks with dip – cucumber, steamed carrot sticks, bell pepper, with hummus or plain yogurt dip.
Mini fruit & cheese plate – mild cheese cubes with grapes (halved) or apple slices.
Protein-Packed
Mini egg muffins – whisked egg with spinach, tomato, and cheese, baked in mini muffin tins.
Nut butter on rice cakes – peanut or almond butter (thin spread), topped with banana slices.

Fun & Finger-Friendly
Whole wheat mini sandwiches – cream cheese & cucumber or mashed avocado filling.
Energy bites – oats, mashed banana, nut butter, and raisins, rolled into small balls.
