Betty Crocker Snacks: Easy Ways to Satisfy Your Cravings

When life gets too busy to sit down and have a meal, it's tough to come up with anything that's quick, easy, and completely satiating. Betty Crocker Snacks is filled with ideas for quick and inventive treats, both savory and sweet, that can come about even in the tightest of schedules and still deliver on fun and taste. This compendium of grazing goodies is organized by time spent in the kitchen—from 30 minutes to an astonishing 10 minutes. For a super-quick breakfast, Iced Oat "Milk" Chai Latte or a Cold-Brew Yogurt Pop takes the same amount of time as hitting the snooze button. A friend coming over last minute? Throw together Oven-Baked Curry Chicken Taquitos or Mediterranean Watermelon Fries with Creamy Feta Dip in less time than it takes to boil an egg. And before you finish a TV episode, have Spinach-Feta Naan Pizzas and Italian Carrot "Fries" ready on the table. Fun features help you customize your favorite bites, like energy balls, and teach you how to make your own oat milk.

MY REVIEW:  Looking for fast, fun food? In the need for quick fixes for snack attacks? "Betty Crocker Snacks: Easy Ways to Satisfy Your Cravings" offers 125 simple, speedy, and satisfying recipes with something to please every snacker on your list. The recipes are divided by prep time--10, 20, or 30 minutes, and are marked for special dietary needs such as vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and high-fiber. Each recipe includes a nutritional breakdown, and the book includes many colorful food photos. You'll find plenty of traditional treats, but you'll also discover new and healthy ways to create sweet and savory dishes to please the palate and save time and money. As a bonus, each recipe includes at least one kitchen secret and tasty tip. The "Bacon Mac and Cheese Bowl", with rotini pasta, bacon, and two cheeses was an immediate "comfort food" hit. Carrots and green beans are two of my favorite vegetables, and "Spicy Green Bean Fries" and "Italian Carrot Fries" were both delicious. "Southwest Taco Dip", made with fat-free yogurt (I used Greek) and seasoned up with flavorful spices and chopped cilantro, onions, and tomatoes made a yummy and filling "small meal" when served with baked pita chips, baby carrots, broccoli and cauliflower bites, and red and yellow grape tomatoes. On the sweet and/or salty side side, we munched and crunched our way through "Ultimate Tailgate Party Mix", "Spicy Caramel Corn Snack Mix", and "White Chocolate-Drizzled Cereal Mix". There are over 120 more recipes to explore here, and many are very simple and "kids in the kitchen" friendly. The whole family will enjoy making and eating "Snacks" from Betty Crocker.

Betty Crocker

 

Since 1921, the Betty Crocker name has symbolized the General Mills continuing tradition of service to consumers. Although Betty was never a real person, her name and identity have become synonymous with helpfulness, trustworthiness and quality.

Betty Crocker has survived the decades by providing consumers with food information and food products that are contemporary without being faddish. The first hardcover cookbook, Betty Crocker's Picture Cookbook was published in 1950 and quickly became a national best seller. Since then, more than 250 Betty Crocker cookbooks have been published.
