Junky Trail Mix

This was a re-work of another week when I brought regular healthy trail mix. I totally broke the healthy rule and had a make your own trail-mix, or essentially a make your own junk food conglomeration bar! Things I included were:
Cheez-its
Gummy worms
Teddy Grahams
Marshmellows
Mini peanut-butter crackers
Pretzels

The kids liked it but were definitely ragging on me for bringing junk food - how awesome is that!

Total cost $15

Chili

This week one of our awesome leaders agreed to make chili. He brought a meat and meatless version and the version I tasted was delicious! He even let me take home some leftovers! :D

Brownies & Popcorn

The brownies were thanks to one of my kids complaining about the "boring" food I brought last week. I told her that she could make the snack if she didn't like what I brought. I have to admit I was pretty astonished when she told me Wed. morning that she had the snacks ready to go. I also brought microwaveable popcorn as additional nourishment.

Total cost $3 (since I didn't have to pay for the brownies!)

Leftovers & Bagels!

This night was an easy recycled night. I used up leftover meat and cheese and bread from the previous week when I purchased too much and then also picked up some bagels and cream cheese.
I get very defensive when people complain about food, so when one of the girls said she was tired of boring old sandwiches I said "Ok! Then you can make the snack next week." To my shock she actually came through!
Total cost was around $10
