Graduation Roll-ups & more

If you know me, you'd know that I'm not that crafty. I think crafts are cute, and many people do really cool things but when I do them I'm either too cheap or too lazy to do them as cute as everyone else.

Well...Salem's preschool teacher asked if I would bring some food tomorrow for his graduation. I debated about what food I should bring. Something healthy? Chips? Veggies? Cookies? Hmm...then I had some ideas! :)

Here is what I ended up doing:
Graduation Roll-ups
A tortilla roll-up with peanut butter & jelly. Then I tied some red yarn around it to make it look like a diploma!
I realize that I could have purchased some twizzler ropes and used those for the bow instead of yarn, but I didn't want to go to the store. You could also use curly ribbon, but I already had the red yarn. I was going to use whole wheat tortillas, but it didn't look as good so I opted for good ol' white flour tortillas. Although these treats aren't the #1 best health food, at least it's better than a cookie with 2 lbs of frosting on top. (Do you want a cookie with that frosting?) I opted for the classic pb&j since I knew the kids would like that. Otherwise you could fill the tortilla with just about anything if you wanted to do this for a graduate with more taste flexibility.

Here's another idea that I had in my brain, but I thought the roll-ups were a better idea:
Chocolate Graduation Hats
Put some chocolate Hershey's kisses in the microwave or oven to slightly melt but so they still hold their shape. Meanwhile dip Snyder's pretzels squares (they look like a grid) in melted chocolate. (Or any small square cracker.) Take the somewhat melted kiss and push the dipped pretzel a little bit onto the kiss and let cool.

Now you've got graduation hats! You could put frosting on top to make a little tassel if wanted.
