This is a super alternative to crunchy trail mix if your kids can't eat nuts. It’s also a great way to get your kids to eat healthy fruits and vegetables. Plus, kids are more likely to eat snacks that they help make.

1 cup sugar snap peas
Organic fresh blueberries
Organic dried goji berries
2 slices good-quality cheese

Directions
Lay snap peas on a plate like Christmas tree branches.
Decorate tree with blueberries and goji berries.
Use a cookie cutter to make a star out of cheese for the top of the tree.
