#SpreadaLittleSunshine
I am always looking for ways to get fruit into my kids. In addition, I love having a snack on hand after school that they will love. But, I also want foods that are good for them and free of the chemicals that I can barely pronounce. Smucker’s Natural Fruit Spreads are a delicious way to add fruit flavor to any meal or snack! I love that the first ingredient in Smucker’s Natural Fruit Spreads is FRUIT! In fact, there are only 4 or 5 ingredients in NEW Smucker’s Natural Fruit Spreads! As a mom, I love that! The other day while I was enjoying the Blackberry Fruit Spread and staring at a box of graham crackers shaped like Minions, I had an idea. Thus was born my Minion Red Tart Cherry Pudding cups!
Enter to WIN a $10,000 Kitchen Makeover from Smucker’s Naturals!
Smucker’s Natural Fruit Spreads are made from quality ingredients from natural sources that are full of flavor. Smucker’s Natural Fruit Spreads come in six delicious varieties – Red Tart Cherry, Blackberry, Strawberry, Red Raspberry, Orange Marmalade and Concord Grape. Find them in retailers nationwide for a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $2.59 to $3.89. Visit smuckers.com for a full list of Smucker’s fruit spread varieties, store locator and recipes.
- 1 box vanilla pudding
- 1 jar Smucker's Natural Cherry Tart Fruit Spread
- 2 cups milk
- Minion graham crackers
- Mix the pudding according to the instructions. Crush some graham crackers for layering. Add graham crackers to bottom of glass, add layer of Smucker's Natural Fruit Spreads, add layer of pudding and repeat. Top with whole Minion graham crackers
My recipe was super easy and required little more than layering. But here is the impressive part. When I opened the Smucker’s Natural Cherry Tart Fruit Spread, I was totally impressed with the pieces of real cherry that are throughout. The same with the Blackberry – which is my all time favorite, by the way. The fruit pieces in the spread make it feel as if you are biting into a sweet, delicious fruit! The Cherry Tart spread is really tart – which I love – so mixing it with a pudding compliments the spread. The bite of the fruit and the spread makes this an awesome treat for any kid… or adult.
Some other recipes you can try are below:
- Creamy Grape Feta Cheese Dip – Mix Smucker’s Natural Concord Grape Fruit Spread with feta cheese, cream cheese, a pinch of garlic and dried oregano for a sweet yet salty dip.
- Instant Raspberry Cheesecake – Spread cream cheese on a graham cracker, top with Smucker’s Natural Red Raspberry Fruit Spread, and add a few slivered almonds on top.
- Boston Bib Lettuce Cups – Combine coleslaw, peanuts and red peppers in a bowl with Smucker’s Natural Orange Marmalade Fruit Spread, vinegar and pepper. Top on bib lettuce for sweet and tangy lettuce wraps.
Creating fun recipes with Smucker’s Natural Fruit Spread is easy. Taking a spoon and eating it right out of the jar is good too! I love the healthier option for my family in both jars and squeeze bottles. With no weird ingredients I can’t understand, these are a better choice for my family!
