The Grinch has been a children’s holiday favorite for 50 years. Let your kids help you make this guacamole version for a holiday snack.
Guacamole is loaded with healthy good fats, nutrients, and fewer calories than most other spreads. It’s a great food to get your child interested in.
Let them help you make these fun, healthy, guacamole holiday treats.
To make this tasty version of the Grinch in your kitchen, cut your favorite sandwich into a triangle, cut off the points to make a pear shape. Top with Wholly Guacamole classic, smooth and etch Grinch brows and cheeks. For eye, use yellow pepper circles topped with pimento stuffed olives. Cut an olive for the nose and add a sprig of celery greens for hair.
O’ Guacamole Tree…Make holiday lunches fun with cookie cutters and toppings to magically transform that plain turkey sandwich into a holiday masterpiece– a tree or star decorated with sour cream garland and mini tomato ornaments.
To decorate your holiday shape sandwiches use basics from your pantry including: diced fresh vegetables, olives, canned corn, nuts and even bacon bits. Anything your kids might eat becomes fair game and helps to inspire creative, healthy eating. Squeeze fat-free sour cream from the corner of a zip-close bag for extra flair.
