Hummus and Rainbow Veggie Arepa — Fun After-School Snack Kids Can Build Themselves
Set out the hummus and whatever colorful vegetables you have in the fridge — and let them build it themselves. This is the after-school snack that looks like art and tastes even better.
Ingredients
- 2 Zavor & Co gluten-free arepas
- ¼ cup hummus (any flavor)
- ½ cup mixed raw vegetables: cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, shredded carrots, bell pepper strips
- Olive oil and a pinch of paprika (optional)
How to Make It
- Warm arepas in toaster or dry skillet 1–2 minutes.
- Spread hummus generously over each arepa.
- Arrange colorful vegetables on top in any pattern.
- Drizzle with a tiny bit of olive oil and a pinch of paprika if using.
- Serve as a snack plate or let kids build their own.
Why It Works
Kids are more likely to eat vegetables they had a hand in placing. Hummus is a natural dip they already love, and the arepa gives them a sturdy, flavorful base that's way more exciting than a cracker. Works with whatever produce is already in the fridge.
