Got the Munchies?
12 Salty, Sweet, and Snacky Recipes
Four years ago today, I started a nearly 1,300-day streak of posting to TikTok. A new video every single day, mostly recipes. I’m hungry just thinking about it! In honor of that anniversary, I’m so excited to start my newest journey on Substack.
If you’re a long-time subscriber, THANK YOU! You’ve truly helped me make my weekly newsletter what it is. And I’d love to hear from you—what recipes or content do you want to see? Please let me know in the comments!
This platform gives me an opportunity to interact with you directly, welcome new members into the community, and answer your questions in real time. I can’t wait to see what we cook up together. In the meantime, here are 12 snacky recipes to munch on all day long, in celebration of…the anniversary.
Before I washed this shirt, I loved it. Now that I’ve washed it, I love it even more. It really is perfect like they say! I have it in heather grey, which I think is softer than other colors.
I love using a grill press to make sure my bread gets fully toasted. It’s especially helpful for bread that has been frozen.
We’re hosting Take Your Kid to Work Day at the Baked by Melissa office next week, which of course means we’ll be tie-dying. I swear by these shirts anytime I do it. Here are a few other tie-dye must-haves.
I know what you’re thinking—a salad?! But trust me, the cashew crunch on top is worth snacking on.
Use whatever crunchy, salty ingredients you have. I used Cheez-Its, pretzels, and tortilla chips. Trust the process.
It’s crunchy, it’s creamy, and it has a little bit of everything, plus it takes minutes to make.
I mean, the name says it all.
Chicken Fingers & Seemingly Ranch
If you’re in your chicken fingers era.
Bookmark for movie night! Flavorful stovetop popcorn has never been better.
I could snack on these whenever they’re in season—it’s a perfect appetizer or simple side.
These are a great way to get kids involved in the kitchen without losing your mind. For an even easier salty-sweet snack, use fun-size candy like this.
I snack on these and give them to my kids to snack on. They’re amazingly filling and taste so good.
Crunchy, sweet, and salty with just three ingredients.
Chocolate-Covered Pumpkin Seeds
Because everything is better covered in chocolate. You could also use sunflower seeds!
In my house, cereal is dessert, not breakfast. Take the gooey marshmallow treats you love and make them even better, with Golden Grahams and chocolate chips.
What do you have cooking up this weekend? Tell me all about it in the comments. ✌️
