Ants on a Log

Ants on a Log
This is a classic American kids' snack that is so simple my Little One can make it. Many of us learned the "recipe" from Scouts.  Thought I'd post it here for a bit of nostalgia for my American readers, and a nice snack idea for International readers.

When people ask, "What do Vegans find to eat?" they never think about the fact that they grew up eating fun, simple things like these!

Ants on a Log
Clean Celery and cut it crosswise, but not lengthwise into sticks
Spread inside with Peanut Butter
Top each "Log" with exactly THREE "Ants" (Raisins)
(My Little One is quite adamant - the recipe calls for exactly 3! No more, no less! ; )

Enjoy!

These are great for an afternoon snack, picnic, or hiking treat.

  1. Thanks for reminding us of those...we've seen real ants on our peony (they help remove the wax so the buds can open)! And this is such a nice snack.
