Is the Veggie-Filled Rainbow Wrap the Perfect After School Snack?

We’ve all been there.

Kids get home.

They are starving.

You want to give them something healthy and filling, but feeling a little uninspired and tired.

What to do?

There’s only one answer:

RAINBOW WRAP!!

Make the most of seasonal produce with this easy (and kid-approved) after school snack - the Rainbow Wrap!

Chef Asata Reid, author of How to Feed a Kid, created the Rainbow Wrap Recipe to help parents feed their kids more fruits and veggies.

Switch it up with whatever colorful veggies you have on hand. Bonus: You can precut the veggies so kids can help or make it on their own! (And honestly, this is a great Sunday afternoon prep activity to make this recipe actually fast.)

How to Choose Your Rainbow-lishcious Ingredients

That’s a word, right? When choosing the veggie filling, prompt children to think about flavor, texture, color, and sweet memories!

• Apples for sweetness

• Radishes for spice

• Cucumbers for refreshment

• Tomatoes for tanginess

• Snap peas and carrots for crunch

• Cut up mint, parsley, or cilantro for extra shazam!
