Food is Food: snacks

Carson came home from work the other day and was raving about this easy recipe: a banana, sliced in half, smothered in peanut butter and frozen. What a great thing to keep in your freezer for a sweet, savory, healthy snack! I, of course, would dip it in dark chocolate, maybe roll it in coconut... but I don't know when to stop. You should make this, thanks Joy Bauer!

Speaking of Carson, I wrote a little something about him for Father's Day here. If you enjoy, please share, and vote, or better yet... join the site and write your OWN!

If your crock pot isn't full of chili or dip on Sunday, why not throw this easy Chex Mix in there!? I know... a savory, crunchy snack made in a slow cooker seems insane, but I made it yesterday and it's not insane, it's magical. Actually, I'm not sure why I made it yesterday because it will most likely be gone before the weekend, but snow days are for making irresponsible food choices, so there.

I followed this recipe and it worked perfectly. See her note on ventilation to ensure your mix stays crunchy, as mine did. What snacks are you going to make for the game?
