Want to make something with the grandkids since they are home today? It's from Rhonda.
Rhonda Rhodes at the Joy of Denim and Lace.
2 cups of Cheerios Cereal
2 cups Kix Cereal
2 cups of Corn Chex Cereal
2 cups of Rice Chex Cereal
2 cups of mini pretzels
1 < 12 oz > bag of red and green M&Ms
1 < 24 oz > bag of red and green peanut M&Ms
2 < 24oz > package of white almond bark
Mix cereals, pretezels, and candies in an extra large mixing bowl. Melt the white almond bark over low heat over stove or microwave.... Stir often
Spoon melted almond bark coating into the trash-mix, and stir until evenly coated. spoon out the wet mixture onto a flat surface such as cookie sheet or pieces of parchment paper and allow to harden.
Once the trash-mix has dried break up into small pieces.
Okay - it's not Christmas technically - but then again - isn't every day Christmas?
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Yum, Christmas trash sounds great - and easy too!
ReplyDeleteSounds good! (We don't have a holiday here.)

Hi Sandie. i'M sure the children would really enjoy making this recipe - and eating it up afterwards!!!
ReplyDeleteTrashy is always the yummiest
ReplyDeleteLooks yummy to me! Have a fun day! Hope you get your weather stick up soon! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThe kids are going to love the trash you are feeding them. I know my Grandkids would.
ReplyDeleteYour recipe sounds wonderful! I'm going to try it soon!
ReplyDeleteYum - that looks good. I started back on my diet today and of course I think I am hugely deprived already. :)
ReplyDeleteWow! Sounds like fun to make, but I don't think I could actually ingest that stuff! :)
ReplyDeleteHave a happy MLK Day!
Loved your recipe and the thought!
ReplyDeleteget 'em hopped up on sugar!
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious. I'll try it for easter, using different colored M&Ms.
ReplyDeleteHi Sandie,
ReplyDeleteThat does look good.
I will be baking cookies with my boys today.
xo,
Dee
Sounds good. No kids here today, so I had leftover peach cobbler for breakfast. Hey! Whatever works, right? :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
That looks like the best 'trash' I've seen in a long time! Enjoy your day with GS!! hugs, Linda
ReplyDeleteThat looks like the yummiest trash I've ever seen! :D Have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteYour tagged.
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy and fun. I really like the compassion quote.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you and your grandson will have a wonderful day today... My problem with making snacks like that is that I would EAT it---EAT it ALL.... ha ha...
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.
Hugs,
Betsy
Hi Sandie...I think you must be a very compassionate person! Take care. Susan
ReplyDeleteHi Sandie, gosh I am running behind this evening [lol] That snack looks yummy. Hope you've had a great day today! Hugs x Eva
ReplyDeleteSOunds and looks wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a yummy snack! Hope you had a nice day!
ReplyDeleteThis looks fun and good!!!! I make something similar called Puppy Chow. Your pig is so cute, have you seen the new Geicko Weeee pig? I LOVE him!!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, I SO want to eat that! Love coming here for your inspiration - food and otherwise. Compassion is such an important thing, and that sweet piggy face is adorable.
ReplyDeleteI think that sounds so delicious and I am hungry! I'll share this with my sis for her granddaughters, too.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a restful evening and a great week!
hey it's close enough to Christmas to make it and besides, it would be a good idea to test the recipe out a few times before you make it for the actual holiday :)
ReplyDeleteI have grandcats, so won't be making this any time soon. I just don't think they'd care for it and then I'd have to eat it all. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to try this sometime!! :-) Looks pretty cool!! <3
ReplyDeleteThat looks yummy, Chatty. I did a Faith post today. Come and see it when you get a chance...I think you will like it. You know, I'm really getting excited about Valentine's Day! It's one of my favorite holidays of all, and your new Header reminds me of a Valentine. I love it!

Oh my goodness, that looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteMy younger daughter would love this. I need to make some and send it her way for a pick me up!
ReplyDeleteHi Sandie! I love the new look of your blog header...and the idea of rose colored glasses! Sounds great to me, too!
ReplyDeleteLooks very yummy! Compassion is the greatest form of love. Great quote.
ReplyDeleteI need to ponder on that thought for the day. Thanks Chatty.
ReplyDeleteI'd love that snack all year round. Had the day off, too. Loved the leisure, even if I did schedule a dental appointment.
ReplyDeleteForget the little kids ... I'm going to have to make up a batch while it's still (somewhat) chilly. What a delightful twist on the traditional recipe!!!
ReplyDeletePS - Love your new header!
The piggy got it right.
ReplyDeleteYup. Looks good. Just the thing a Bear needs before hibernation!
ReplyDeleteThat looks wonderful, Sandy. I would leave the nuts and peanuts out but still good. A few raisins could sub.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoyed the holiday. Not much different here, every day is a Saturday or a holiday for retired people.
Of course I could have gone to the MLK Day parade in Houston. They always have one or two of those.
