Individual Buffalo Chicken and Vegetable Crudités Cups
My girls get off the bus at 2:20. Yes. 2:20. That’s insanely early right? Their day actually starts around 6am. It’s very different than when I was in elementary school.
They eat lunch and have a small snack at school and walk in the door looking for food. I’m convinced they could pretty much eat all day long and still be hungry. They do, however, need to work on drinking more water, but they are most definitely a work in progress.
Most days, we encourage fruits and vegetables, but they often need protein to help them make it to dinner time. So other times, I like to make something for them to mix things up.
I recently learned that Farm Rich products are now sold in select Target stores starting in August and will feature Farm Rich Mozzarella Sticks (America’s #1 selling cheese stick), Mozzarella Bites, Bone-in Buffalo Chicken Wings and Boneless BBQ Chicken Bites. I knew I wanted to come up with a snack for the girls! They really like buffalo wings, so I came up with some individual buffalo chicken and vegetable crudités cups. (This would also work well with the Boneless BBQ Chicken Bites if spicy isn’t your thing).
These are great for individual portions. There is no fighting over who gets more. No more double dipping here! And, you could easily swap out dipping sauces and control how much they get!
I put about 1T of ranch dressing in the bottom of the cups (you could use bleu cheese or whatever other dip you would like) and cut up some carrot and celery sticks while the Bone-in Buffalo Chicken Wings and Boneless Buffalo Chicken Bites were cooking.
The girls were so excited when they saw the little individual cups for them, that they dove right in.
Mr. Serious enjoyed them, too. They will also make great after work snacks for him. Or more realistically, great snacks for a football watching party or tailgating.
I’m all about the snack and meal hacks, and this is just one of the many that I could put together. Farm Rich offers many other tips/hacks, recipes, and great tasting food that help simplify everyday life – what they like to call “Real-Life Good.”

What is one of your favorite snack or meal hacks?
This is a great idea! I love it. Add more wings in a bigger cup and this would be a great dinner on the go for families that have a lot of evening activities.
Yes! So true! That’s exactly what I had in mind to change it from a snack to a meal!
Yum! I didn’t know the girls like buffalo sauce! I could put that sh*t on everything! This is so cute AND looks delicious.
Yes! Put it on EVERYTHING!
What a great idea for a party too. This would definitely curb double dipping and those who don’t eat from a community bowl due to double dipping would be able to enjoy too.
Because nobody likes a double dipper!
Looks good! I would like try these
Oh my gosh, this is SUCH a good idea! I love it. They can even kind of “play” with their food. I mean, you know what I mean… 😉
All of the food playing!
This is a really great after school snack that will help get through to dinner time. My son would love this!
Oh what a fun idea! I have to bring these to my families when we do our football get togethers! So fun and cute…and easy too! 🙂
I really like how everyone can take their cup and walk around and enjoy the party. Honey mustard sounds yummy to me!
What a great idea for an after school snack.
I love this idea. This would be great for a football party too!
