Blessing Mix
2 C. Bugle Brand Corn Snacks (shaped as a cornucopia, a horn of plenty)
2C. Mini Pretzels (represents hands folded in thanks and prayer)
1 C. Candy Corn (During the first winter, when food was scarce, the Pilgrims were each allotted only 5 kernels of corn per day.
2 C. White Mini- Marshmallows (There was snow and the pilgrims were cold)
2 C. Fall Color M&M's (Representing the colors of fall)
1 C Candy Pumpkins, like Brachs mallow (representing a bounteous harvest)
1 C. Raisins or other dried fruit (In celebration of the fruits of the harvest)
1 C. Peanuts, sunflower seeds, or other nuts (seeds represent a bounteous harvest for the next season if planted and tended well)
This is also a great gift. I mix it together and place some snack mix in a clear bag with a card attached giving the above recipe and explanation of each ingredient. It always gets rave reviews. If you make this as a group, plan to have the recipe printed, you will get several requests.
