This is Part Three of A Bug's Life Lunch: Muffin Tin Meal Style :)

A Muffin Tin Meal is a meal served in muffin tins, and in this case frog muffin cups.  I found these cute frog silicone baking cups at Christmas Tree Shops.  ((Please see more amazingness about Muffin Tin Meals at Muffin Tin Mom!))

This was a super easy way to this simple meal even cuter :)  Continuing through our box of Crazy Bugs Macaroni & Cheese I decided to make a Bug themed muffin tin meal. Frogs eat bugs.. so why not make a Froggy Bug themed Muffin Tin Meal?! :)

In the upper left Froggy: we have our Crazy Bugs Macaroni & Cheese

In the upper right Froggy: cut green seedless grapes

In the lower left Froggy: thinly sliced celery underneath some "ants" on a log ("glued" with Creamy Honey Soynut Butter) If you prefer "flies" on a log you could add some sunflower kernels for wings (see example here). I was out of nut free/peanut free sunflower kernels so we went with ants on a log instead :)

In the lower right Froggy: Honey Cinnamon baked Chickpeas (we take a can of organic chickpeas, rinse and drain well. Dry them out on a paper towel. Put chickpeas on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and bake until crispy. Toss the hot chickpeas with honey and cinnamon. Then put back into the oven for about 10 min. No real measurements of ingredients or time-- super simple and easy to do though! We have made other flavors too. It is a favorite snack of mine and Eliana's! We make a batch every other week about :))
