Tomorrow is Leap Day or the 29th of February! When one thinks of leaping, one might think of frogs. I know I did.
This snack is filled not only with a leaping green spinach tortilla frog with olive eyes but, several other wonderful green foods.JDaniel's favorite green foods are in this tin.
JDaniel loves green grapes. When I buy red grapes, he wants to know why I would buy those grapes. I happen to like red grapes and they are suppose to be really good for you but, he does't see their value. My husband loves red grapes as much as I do but, will eat the green ones too. We tend to have green ones to keep JDaniel happy and eating grapes.
Pickles are also one of his favorite foods. He has been big into finding out which foods are fruits and which are vegetables. Since cumcumbers have seeds and foods with seeds are fruits, he asks for pickles when I tell him he needs to have a fruit for dessert. Yes, pickles for dessert. JDaniel is one of kind.
The final green item in this Leap Year snack tin is green veggie straws. These go have gone over big not only with JDaniel his friend Nathan loves them too. I have to whisk them away after each has had several handfuls or they would eat the whole bag.
How are you celebrating Leap Year?
I like green grapes myself ;-) Love the leaping frog!
ReplyDeleteGreen is so popular!
DeleteWhere do you find veggie straws? I've never seen them before...but my town might be too small.
ReplyDeleteI buy them at Aldi. I think Earth Fare carries them too.
DeleteI love red and green grapes. We are planning some fun for Leap Year. We plan to play leap frog, having a scavenger hunt and eating green food.

DeleteYou get so creative with your tortillas! I'm so jealous. Love that you celebrated Leap Day. It's my aunt's birthday, so we always think it's extra special when she gets a "real" birthday. ;)
ReplyDeleteHow cool to have such a special birthday date!
DeleteWe go through a ton of pickles in this house! I have to know, how did you make that frog? Was it a giant cookie cutter? That is the most awesome idea for Leap Day food EVER!!!
ReplyDeleteI printed out a the outline of a frog, cut out the outline and traced the outline onto a tortilla.
