No Cook recipes are great to have in your repertoire. They are generally quick and easy, meaning they can be made for surprise events. The kids can help with these since they don’t require an oven they might be uncomfortable using.
Holidays lend themselves to no-cook ideas, such as Valentine’s Puppy Chow (so cute and on-theme with strawberries!). Grandparents will love the Turkey Pretzels that are out on the table. Chocolate Reindeer Bark is perfect for making ahead to ahead to cookie trays.
