5 Thanksgiving Treats for Parties!
Thanksgiving Themed Party Mix
Chances are you know it and you love party mix and if you are a busy mom with Thanksgiving parties coming up, you might need a quick, easy treat idea!
YOU NEED:
Chex Mix cereal of choiceBugels chips
Mini pumpkins or candy corn
Colored m+m’s
White chocolate chips
Dried Cranberries
Toss it altogether and enjoy OR pack it up in cups or baggies for a school party!
2. Turkey “Feather” Treat bags
These are simple, easy, and everyone will love them!
YOU NEED:
Clear disposable gloves
Popped Popcorn
Regular or Peanut M&M’s
Reese's Pieces (or your favorite mix of candies in fall colors!)
Googly eyes
Glue stick
Orange construction paper
Scissors
Optional: Clear tape, Clear rubber bands
Fill each “finger” of the glove with a colored candy and fill the “hand” of the glove with popcorn or other snacks! You could also use pretzels or cereal.
Cut out the beak from the construction paper and tape or glue stick it on along with the googly eyes!
3. Turkey Fruit Tray
If you are like me and you really want something with MINIMAL decorating or put together, then this is for you!! All you need is your favorite fruits, half an apple, and a paper cut out of a turkey! (and a toothpick!)
Arrange the fruit as the turkey feathers, place the apple down as the “body” and stick your turkey cut out right to the apple with a toothpick!
It’s cute, healthy, and super simple!

4. Turkey Veggie Tray
We love a good fruit tray, but we ALSO love an easy veggie tray! For this one, all you need are veggies of choice arranged as the “Feathers” of the turkey, a bowl of your favorite dip as the “body”, a bell pepper for your turkey “face” and a set of googly eyes!
Another simple, healthy idea!

5. Mini pumpkin pies
Are you in charge of the pie this year? Here’s a super simple trick! Grab full sized pumpkin pies, take a biscuit cutter or circle cookie cutter and punch out circles! Serve as “mini pies” and top with whipped topping!
*BONUS TIP: Take the leftover cut outs, blend them together and form into balls- cover with white chocolate and now you have pumpkin pie truffles!
Enjoy!
We hope you and your littles enjoy these simple treat recipes!!
