Shamrock Bites


 These super fun shamrock bites are the perfect little snack for St. Patricks Day! You can eat them on their own or use them as a cupcake topper. In our home, we love that sweet and savory combination...perfect for snacking!
When I was growing up, my momma made St. Patrick's Day so fun! We all wore green and she made all the food for our meals and snacks green, she taught us about St. Patrick and Ireland...I love it! We ate everything from green mashed potatoes, green jello, green salad, we even had green pizza! Everything she could think of to turn green, she did! And we loved it! Sure it wasn't authentic but we had a blast and it stuck with us! Each of my bothers and I have a fond Proudness of our Irish heritage! Thanks mom!
SHAMROCK BITES

Pretzel twists
Candy melts (white or green)
Green M&M's

Heat oven to 250. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Spread pretzels on the cookie sheet. Set one candy melt disk on each pretzel. Set in the oven for 3 - 5 minutes. Place 3 M&M's on each pretzel, resembling the Shamrock!
 Allow to cool then snack away!
