parent conference snacks and treats*

Phew, I am so glad we made it through last weekend! We had several parents from all over to visit their kids and the teachers and staff at Heritage. With the help of my staff, we prepared 4 meals and 3 different snack bars for approx. 320-340 people! HOLY TOLIDO - that's a lot of people! But we survived and it was a great success!

On Thursday night we had a networking and mingle for all of the parents to meet each other and get to know each other a little bit. They had a workshop and then headed on over to the cafeteria for some goodies. On the menu we had meatball sliders, chicken salad croissant sandwiches, veggie tray, hummus w/ pita chips, chocolate chunk and macadamia nut cookies, rice krispy pops, cream puff and strawberry kabobs, and a fresh fruit bowl. My favorites were the chicken salad croissants, rice krispy pops, and cream puff and strawberry kabobs :).

Rice Krispy Pops

*Rice Krispy squares dipped in melted chocolate Candy Melts, drizzled with white chocolate and poked with a lollipop stick!*

Cream Puff and Strawberry Kabobs

*Frozen cream puffs (thawed), drizzled in chocolate Candy Melts, then skewered with some deliciously sweet strawberries*

 

 Chicken Salad Croissant Sandwiches

*Shredded chicken, Miracle Whip, chopped onion, chopped celery, salt and pepper on a buttery croissant*

Meatball Slider

The spread in all of it's glory :)

'Nother angle

Although we prepared WAY too much food, I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome! Everything looked delicious and tasted even better! Tomorrow - a chocolate peanut butter nutella ganache cupcake! Get ready - it's gonna be a doozy!
