I don’t really remember how we started calling this Snack Lunch, but no matter what time of day I serve this, we still call it Snack Lunch. This is my favorite meal because there’s no actual cooking involved, it can be on the table in 5 minutes, and my kids love it! Once a week on summer nights, I would set this out on the picnic table and let my kids graze as they played. I loved the relaxed mealtime and my kids ate more veggies than they ever do when I serve them! Now that its cold out, I will lay out a picnic blanket inside, or just put this out on the table. I’m always surprised at the amount of veggies they choose for themselves when I don’t say a word. Ha! You could put anything you like on your Snack Lunch platter. Here’s what I put on mine:

- Tomatoes
- Cucumber
- Carrots
- Bell Pepper
- Ham, Turkey, or Salami
- Cheese slices
- Hummus
- 3 Seed Beet Crackers (Trader Joes – these are seriously so good!)
Put it all on a plate and let everyone graze!
