It's that time of year when everything is starting to get a little crazy right? Christmas is around the corner and things are just generally very busy. We wanted to create a delicious recipe that was quick to make, uses pantry staples and that's suitable for anyone to eat on-the-go, or for a healthier, package-free snack.
