Yummy Picnic Snacks

Hi and welcome to Little Miss Holly, today I will be sharing with you some yummy picnic snacks. Before I get into it, thankyou so much for 50 followers! It means so much to me. This is a collab with Liveandlaugh03 and GravityGirlxox I’ll leave their links at the end of the post. Enjoy 🙂

My first picnic food is basil pesto spaghetti in coffee cups. I think putting it into paper coffee cups is a great idea for picnic, no cleaning up and it looks cute and fun.

What you need:

– Spaghetti

– Basil pesto (I bough mine from the shops but you can make your own)

– Bacon (You don’t need this but I think it tastes better)

– Parmesan cheese

– Cherry tomatoes (I forgot to buy some of these but pesto spaghetti tastes amazing with them)

– Paper coffee cups

– Something to decorate the coffee cups (I used wrapping paper)

I bought plain white coffee cups from Coles but you can get them from anywhere, I decorated them with a strip of pretty wrapping paper.

1. Cook the spaghetti

2. Cut bacon into little squares and fry in a pan

3. Drain the spaghetti and mix in the pesto sauce, I put about half the jar with around 1/3 to 1/2 of the packet of spaghetti

4. Put spaghetti covered in basil pesto into the coffee cups, sprinkle with bacon and Parmesan cheese

5. Enjoy!

The next picnic snack is lollies covered in chocolate. These taste sooo yum.

What you need

– Lollies

– Chocolate (Either cooking chocolate or normal)

– Baking paper

– Container or tray

1. Melt the chocolate, either in a bowl over a sauspan with a bit of water in the bottom and on the stove, or in a microwave with 20 second intervals, mixing in between

2. Take chocolate off heat

3. Put either one or a few lollies into the chocolate and completely cover, spoon out and put onto tray or container lined with baking paper. Make sure the lollies aren’t sitting on the chocolate for too long because they may start to melt

4. Put into the fridge until set
