Kids’ Beef & Veggie Empanadas + Snack: Apple “Nachos”
with PB Chocolate Sauce
Empanadas—Latin American meat pies—are perfectly portable and great fuel for kiddos at home, school, and beyond! These heat-and-eat hand pies are filled with gently seasoned beef and vegetables, and baked to golden perfection. Serve them with chips and salsa, carrots, and orange slices for a tasty meal. But what about snacktime? We’ve included all the fixins for irresistible apple “nachos!” You’ll drizzle a pile of juicy sliced apples with a peanut butter-swirled chocolate sauce and tangy yogurt.
