One of my favorite things is when I can take a classic snack or recipe and give it just a tiny little twist and make it different and fun that Leah gets so excited about. These little Ham, Cheese and Apple Pockets are a perfect example of that.

You tuck a little cheese and apple into a ham (or turkey) slice and you have a fun little vehicle for a healthy snack. I started calling them pockets and then Leah one day said “mom! they look like sleeping bags!” You can choose whichever name you like or see what your kiddo comes up with too. Any variation of cheese, fruit or meat will work. We had ham, colby and jack and an apple on hand.

Add some crackers and it’s a fun and yummy kid friendly snack. Details below on how to make the sleeping bag!
