Friday Notables - Peas in a Pod, Snack in a Snap

Any parent or caregiver with a toddler knows how important it is to carry snack foods with you throughout the day and while I love the go to cheerios sometimes you can find yourself searching for something a little different. Making sure snacks are healthy is also a big factor, which is why I was so excited when about a year ago we discovered snap pea crisps. They are usually sun dried and/or baked and look like a chip in the shape and color of a pea pod. And although they basically taste like a chip puff, these crisps retain a lot of the vitamins, fiber, and veggie protein that you would find in a serving of peas. Even better, they are great for toddlers still getting teeth in because they soften easily and almost dissolve in your child's mouth. There are a few brands out there so I recommend checking your local grocer's health food isle for them. Thanks for reading!
