Recipe Introduction


"I made little bags of this Blessing Mix and on top of the bag I printed out a cute little Thanksgiving turkey and the explanation of the Blessing Mix on cardstock. I stapled it to the top of the bag and tied a cute raffia bow in fall colors to that... Everyone loved it and it makes a nice little treat for the neighbors too!"


List of Ingredients




2 cups Bugles Brand Corn Snacks
2 cups Pretzels
1 cup Candy corn and/or Corn Nuts Brand Snack
1 cup Dried or Candy Fruits
1 cup Peanuts and/or Sunflower Seeds


Recipe



In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients together. Make this mix as a family and eat while discussing each ingredient and how it relates to Thanksgiving.

If this is for a gift Make a card with these descriptions:

Each ingredient in this snack mix symbolizes something associated with the Harvest Season (Thanksgiving)


Bugles Brand Corn Snacks - represents a cornucopia, a horn of plenty.

Pretzels - represents arms folded in thanks and prayer.
Candy Corn and/or Corn Nuts Brand Snack - during the first Winter, the pilgrims were each allotted only 5 kernels of corn per day because food was so scarce.

Dried or Candy Fruits - Thanksgiving is the celebration of the harvest.

Peanuts and/or Sunflower Seeds - seeds represent the potential of a bounteous harvest for the next season if they are planted and well tended.
