Gluten Free Snacks... on a Stick!

I know I am a bit behind in my series… it has been quite busy around here with our new routines!  So, today I decided to share an easy snack you can have prepared for your loved ones when they jump off the bus.  “Snack On a Stick”, gluten free and nutritious!  You can even let the kids do the assembly as part of the fun.  I try and offer a fruit sauce or dressing for dipping to get them into eating the veggie options that I put on the plate as well.  If you join in the fun, you might just be surprised by what they are willing to eat!
