Ants on a Log (For a Tea Party)
"These are cute for kids and healthy, too. They go well with other things at a tea party. Also, they would be good for a lunch for the kids. If it is for a tea party the inside stalks will be more dainty, but if it is for the child's lunch, any stalk will do."

Never mind the kids we loved them - I made them as a side dish with our lunch salads. Used lite Garlic Herb cream cheese. I would like these with black olives on them too or cranberries. Thanks for posting this delightful tasty easy recipe Made for P_A_R_T_Y_ 09 -
These did not go over very well with the six-year-olds at my daughter's party. The adults liked them better, however! -
These were a hit at my daughter's first princess tea party. I did use chocolate chips instead of raisins though because she refuses to eat raisins. Thanks for a great idea!
