Microwave popcorn is a favorite too. I keep a container of cleaned and cut up carrot and celery sticks in the fridge along with some low fat ranch dressing. And spreading peanut butter on saltines or ritz crackers is always another favorite.

PUMPKIN PUDDING

15-oz. can pumpkin
1/2 t. pumpkin pie spice
1-1/2 c. milk
3.5-ounce package instant vanilla pudding (sugar-free will also work, if desired)

Mix pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice together in a bowl with a wooden spoon.
Slowly stir in the milk. Mix well.
Add the instant pudding mix and stir slowly for about one minute until it thickens.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator.

Clown Face sandwiches were a fav. We had to use the oven broiler in those days but toaster ovens work great today.
Place a slice of American cheese on a slice of bread.
Using a squeeze bottle of catsup (we had a big fat plastic red tomato) squeeze eyes (small blobs) and a mouth on the cheese square.
Broil just til cheese begins to bubble.

We called them Angels on Horseback, no idea why!

Barbecue Cups

3/4 pound lean ground beef
1/2 cup barbeque sauce
1 tablespoon dried minced onion
1 (12 ounce) package refrigerated biscuit dough
1/3 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease the cups of a muffin pan.
2.In a large heavy skillet over medium heat, cook beef until evenly brown. Drain excess fat. Stir in barbeque sauce and dried onion. Simmer for a few minutes over low heat.

These freeze well, if they last that long. And you can vary the cup type:

pizza cups with Italian sausage, pizza sauce, mozzarella
Mexican cups with ground beef, taco seasoning or sauce, and Monterrey Jack
chopped ham, drained pineapple tidbits, cheddar
bierocks cups with onion and shredded cabbage browned with the ground beef, American cheese on top
