Create Wholesome Snowflake Snacks!

What You Do:

1. Fold the tortilla in half, and then in half again.
2. Help your child cut out shapes and designs from the folded edges of the tortilla with the kitchen scissors. Cut through all of the layers, trying not to tear the tortilla. (Note: for safety reasons, this part may be done just by an adult.)
3. Open the tortilla and place it flat on the baking sheet. It should resemble a snowflake design.
4. Help your child carefully sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on the snowflake tortilla. Try to keep the cheese away from the holes. If you like, you can sprinkle a little powdered garlic on top of the cheese. A little goes a long way!
5. Place the baking sheet and snowflakes under the broiler or in the toaster oven just until the cheese bubbles. Watch them carefully—it only takes a minute or so!
6. Wearing oven mitts, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Set aside and let cool for a few minutes.
7. Once they're cool, with a spatula, remove the tortilla snowflake from the baking sheet. You can pack them up for lunch or snack, or you can eat them right away.
8. For an extra festive touch, while you're waiting for the tortillas to dry, you can sprinkle a little cheese on a white plate.
9. Then sprinkle a little more cheese on top if you like, and the snowflakes will look like their lying in snow!
