Thank you to Disney Junior for sponsoring today’s post. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own. This summer put the YAY in your FRiYAY with NEW Puppy Dog Pals on Disney Junior and this tasty Puppy Chow Snack Mix for your kiddos!
Now you’re probably familiar with Puppy Chow, but since it’s such a sweet treat, we’ve created a snack mix that helps balance some of that sweetness out for a more well rounded snack. First we started with a simple Puppy Chow recipe of rice checkered cereal, butter, peanut butter, chocolate chips, vanilla and powdered sugar. Once the Puppy Chow was made, I gathered the ingredients for the Puppy Chow Snack Mix! You just need the Puppy Chow, more rice checkered cereal, pretzels, peanuts and chocolate candies.
All you need to craft up these Bingo and Rolly cups are standard sized treat cups, colored card stock, googly eyes, a black marker, scissors and craft glue.
When Bob says his mom’s coming to dinner and he wants the Pugs to “treat her like a queen,” Bingo and Rolly head to England to learn how a queen is actually treated.
How sweet is that? I know I’m looking forward to the time with my boys and perhaps we’ll have to do another Puppy Chow Snack Mix to celebrate! I hope you’ll join us and tell us what you think about the new show. You’re going to love it!

These are super cute and look fun to make and eat (I love pugs and Disney and yummy easy snacks for kids). Beautiful photos. Just remind kids not to share with real puppies as chocolate is bad for them.

Great tip, Susan!
