This "Bethlehem Snack Mix" is the perfect kitchen gift to share thru-out the holiday season's gatherings and/or even as neighbor gifts.
Animal crackers Red and green M&Ms* Star-shaped pretzels* Potato sticks** I am sorry that the recipe I have does not include quantities. Probably if you started with a cup of each ingredient, you could not go wrong.
* Red and green M&Ms and star-shaped pretzels can usually be found in stores as soon as the holiday items begin to appear.
** Potato sticks are the (fried, I assume) shoestring-shaped snack item -- like potato chips, only in sticks. They come in a can. It looks a bit like hay or straw if you use your imagination. The poem could be printed on a gift tag which you would attach with a ribbon to the top of a clear plastic treat bag. Or, fold the top of a plastic or paper treat bag over and staple a rectangular tag to the top of it. The mix could also be placed in a jar, which would make for a festive-looking gift as well. POEM reads as:
This yummy snack is an easy way To remember that very first Christmas Day! Potato sticks remind us of hay Like that in the manger where Jesus lay. These crackers remind us of the animals that night -- Sheep and donkey surprised at the sight. Pretzels in the shape of stars Remind us of all that the shepherds saw. Red and green, the colors of the season, Remind us that Jesus is the only reason! Or you could certainly write your own poem, or simply list what the ingredients are intended to represent. Have fun with this idea! I can see individual bags of this mix being a wonderful gift for Sunday School students. ![]() Image Source: Nativity Lunch Christmas Ideas suggests these little "pigs in a blanket" some shredded cheese for the hay and pretzels for frame. You could also add a Star on top with using ketchup or mustard. Christmas Story Snack Mix (Free Printable!)
