Quick and easy Christmas snacks



Themed snacks are great fun...christmas makes it even colorful !! To attract kids and adults for healthy snacking is a tough job these days. They are ready to gulp any not-so-nutritious food but when it comes to eating healthy, nobody is interested. It has become mandatory to make food look attractive than just taste great. Visual appeal is a bigjob now a days. This festive feel makes it interesting for the people who cook too. Christmas is a festival of green, red and glitter.

To make salty santa munchees, we need:

* Saltines ( circular salt biscuits)
* Cream cheese frosting
* Red, not-so-ripe Tomatoes
* Celery sticks
* Chia seeds for eyes and nose

Method:

Cut tomatoes in santa's hat shape. Get the cream cheese ready in a frosting cone. Place the salt biscuit, arrange the tomato hat and start making mustache and beard as in the picture or improvise on your own. Mark small dots for eyes, nose and carefully place chia seeds on them. Cut celery sticks in a semicircle and place two such to mark the mustache. Sprinkle a pinch of black pepper as needed for taste and serve. This christmas salty Santa is almost skinny and healthy for snacking. Our pictures show quite some good snacks to try for a tasty and healthy christmas fun !!
