Having little ones at home and a busy schedule, I’m always on the look out for quick and easy lunches. I have to admit that I have fallen into a rut of serving the old time favorites like macaroni and cheese or peanut butter and jelly. If my kids are lucky they might have a choice to add honey to their peanut butter. Then there are the days we are really desperate. A quick bowl of Ramen Noodles are usually the go to choice , which may fill their tummies but I’m sure does not rank very high in the nutrition scale. I don’t know what it is about lunch time but it always hits our home at the busiest time of our day.

I’ve found that if I create a more interesting I make the lunch menu, my children are more likely to take the time to slow down and actually eat. Finger foods are always a big hit. They are bite size and can be eaten quickly. The best part is there are no utensils required.

This week we tried Mini Pigs In A Blanket paired with a few apple slices. It was a big hit at our house. Nothing was left over and they are quick and easy to prepare.

Mini Pigs In A Blanket

1 package Lil’ Smokers Sausages
1 package refrigerated crescent rolls

Directions:
1. Open crescent rolls and separate dough into the divided triangles. Using a pizza cutter, cut each triangle in half creating a smaller triangle.
2. Take individual Lil’Smokers and roll inside of the dough from the widest part of the triangle down. Repeat until all of the dough has been used.
3. Place on a cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 11- 13 minutes.

Strawberries are back in season. They are one of my very favorite foods, but I really consider them more of a treat. This dessert is a great one if you need to feed a crowd but don’t want to be standing in the kitchen prepping your dessert. It requires just a few ingredients, is quick to throw together and can be made a day ahead and kept in the fridge. It a no hassle version of strawberry shortcake for a crowd. Enjoy!

Potluck Strawberry Shortcake

Ingredients:
1 white cake mix
1 cup powdered sugar
1 8 oz cream cheese
1 8 oz container of whipped topping
1 16oz carton of strawberries
1 package Danish Dessert Strawberry Flavor

Directions:

1. Prepare and the cake mix and bake in a jellyroll pan according to the directions on the box. Let cool until at room temperature.
2. While cake is baking clean and slice strawberries and place in a medium bowl.
3. In another bowl beat together 1 cup powdered sugar and cream cheese. When these have come together well and look like frosting fold in the whipped topping.
4. Prepare Danish Dessert following the directions on the package. (Just add water & boil, don’t be intimidated if you’ve never used it before. Tip: You can find it by the jello products.)
5. Add Danish Dessert to strawberries and coat well.
6. Frost your cake with the cream cheese mixture and top with strawberries.
7. Cover your cake and place it in the fridge at least 4 hours before serving.
