Seasoned Oyster Cracker Recipe – Beach Friendly Food

April 13, 2019 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Recipe, Social Media, Summer 1 Comment

Beach friendly food is important when traveling to the sand and sun. This Seasoned Oyster Cracker Recipe is easy to prepare, extremely tasty, filling and feeds a large crowd. It’s a family favorite snack recipe you will make over and over again.

Seasoned Oyster Cracker Recipe

As a former sand and sun worshiper and native of Florida, I am often asked, “what snacks are good for the beach?” The sun has a way of sucking the calories out of you and often tummies, namely those of the kids, are famished! My first goal of preparing beach friendly snacks is to feed a crowd. If you go to the beach with two kids, you always end up feeding about triple your head count. Kids pick up kids. People also eat larger servings in the sun. I love to make a meal healthy, but I also like to make a hearty snack.

This Seasoned Oyster Cracker Recipe is perfect for feeding a crowd and is incredibly tasty. Best of all, it is easy to whip up the morning before you head out to the beach or prepare ahead and store in a tightly sealed bag or plastic container. This is a family recipe. My stepmom has made it for years and my kids always ask for it. She makes it without cheese crackers, but this year for our beach adventure, we decided to mix things up. In addition to our oyster crackers, we added Goldfish! I figured this would be a nice touch for our young crowd, three kids two and under!

Also check out our other beach friendly food recipes – Strawberry Mango Salsa. So good!

Other beach friendly foods include peanut butter banana roll-ups tortillas, tangerines, frozen grapes, pre-cut watermelon triangles, strawberry mango salsa, frozen Capri Suns, kids Cliff Bars, and sandwiches. Think fruit, crabs, and protein!

See this Seasoned Oyster Cracker Recipe is featured in Beach Life Hacks and Beach Tips and Hacks!

Beach Friendly Recipe Adaption: This is best in the slow cooker so you can continuously stir. If your beach house lacks a Crock-Pot, prepare the recipe, lay it out on cookie sheets and let it bake in the sun! If the porch is too windy, bake it in the oven at 250 degrees for 20 minutes.

Seasoned Oyster Cracker Ingredients:

Optional: Make without Goldfish.

Multiply as needed. This recipe will fill about a gallon sized plastic bag.

Ingredients

9 oz Oyster Crackers
6.6 oz bag of Goldfish
2 T Dill Weed
3/4 cup Mazola Oil
1 oz package Ranch Seasoning Mix

Instructions

Gather your dry ingredients and mix in your slow cooker (or bowl if not baking.)
Pour Mazola oil evenly over your crackers.

Beach Life Hacks – Secrets from a Floridian

Beach Life Hacks – beach secrets and tips from a native Floridian.

Beach Life Hacks

Being raised in the panhandle of Florida, the beach was always an hour away. Every weekend my parents and I would make the trek and enjoy a few sunsets on the coast before heading back home for the daily grind of Monday. All I really cared about was having a towel and a suit, the ocean had the rest, but as I got older and continued this tradition with my kids, I picked up a few Beach Life Hacks along the way.

We blended two of our favorite posts Life Hacks and Beach Tips into one new post with unique ideas. Learn how to keep your drinks cold, what snacks are best for feeding hungry bellies and one to keep the sand off of you by the end of the day. See some umbrella accessories that we couldn’t live without and learn the best way to let down your hair and embrace the salty air!

Enjoy the beach!

Take a look at these two beach friendly foods – Strawberry Salsa Recipe and Seasoned Oyster Cracker Recipe.

It’s not hard to get bored at the beach… okay, well it isn’t for some. Busy a bored kit with this printable Beach Scavenger Hunt too! Pin to Pinterest.

Speaking of bored, save these beach games to play when you get there. Make sure to get involved mom and dad!

Listen closely, okay read carefully. This hack was originally seen in our Beach Tips but if you are not a beach local, it might have gotten lost so we are sharing again. Carry a Rubbermaid Bin to the beach with all your toys, towels, and accessories. If you are in a quieter section of the beach, fill up the bucket and leave this bin by the showers, uncovered. The sun will warm the water. At the end of your beach day, bring the kids up to the bucket and wash them with soap their own outdoor tub. This gives you clean kids (with no sand) before putting them in the car! Before your car ride home, put all your dirty clothing and toys in the bin. You are welcome!

They say beach hair don’t care because it’s true. Except sea spray, sun, sand and wind to have your hair all over the place. Embrace the hair with product like this homemade sea spray. (I see my typo – please “multiply” as needed!)

1 c warm water (warm dissolves the sea salt)
1 tsp sea salt (we like this brand)
1 tsp coconut oil
1 tsp conditioner (white conditioner is best!)
optional: 4 drops lime essential oil

An inflatable baby pool and umbrella will keep your baby cool and shaded on the sand. | Little and Lovely

Umbrellas don’t stay if you don’t know the tricks. There are two tools you want for your umbrella. First, you want an Umbrella Sand Anchor. This will help keep your umbrella sturdy in the ground. Once your umbrella is up, back extra sand around the stand. Then wet it. Then pack more. The wet it…. and so on. You also want Hanging Hook Set. This keeps things off the ground. Great for keys, sunglasses, a phone case or a small item that needs to dry.

This aloe cooling cube recipe will help alleviate pain from a sunburn!

Rain happens. Don’t let a rainy day at the beach spoil your fun. While going to the movies are great, sometimes it best to lay low at home and watch the rain pass over the ocean. At home, have fun making these Sea Shell Creatures. Make your own play-doh from ingredients at home or buy some and get crafty. | Crafts by Amanda

Don’t loose your keys at the bottom of the bag or get your phone wet with this waterproof jar hack! (Source unknown)

Chill your beach cooler with frozen water bottles instead of ice packs. As the day goes on, the ice will thaw and you’ll have another round of refreshing drinks. | Kitchn

In addition to freezing water bottles, freeze your Capri Suns too. This makes a slushy for the kidos (and adults) and helps cool them off.

Buy ahead. It’s easy to buy shovels, kites, float, and sandcastle buckets at the beach, but if you want to save money but ahead and travel to your beach destination with your beach accessories already in hand. I recommend The Dollar Tree. If you are not traveling by car, consider shipping your toys (from Amazon) to your beach house door.

Don’t want to buy – pack these things for the beach. 1.) Dish scrub brush 2.) Kitchen strainer 3.) Tupperware containers 4.) Cookie cutters 5.) Water pitcher 6.) Tub toys 7.) Kitchen Funnel | Raising Whasians

If the beach is new to you, I promise your kids are going to want to collect shells. Just trust me. Every time we go, and we are veterans to the shore, my kid still collect shells. We told you in our Beach Tips Post that mesh laundry bags are good for beach toys. Well guess what. They are also good for collecting shells. I suggest one with a zipper. Keep the bag zipped and wash your shells out in the outdoor sink or shower. Once again, shop The Dollar Tree. | I Love Shelling

Beach carts are fun, but did you know that something used in the snow might be your best friend. Use a sled to pull a moderately loaded cart. (Source)

So go ahead and pack extra food. More than you normally each. The sun, sand and wind kick up an appetite, every time. While chips and cookies never bring complaints and always offer a filling snack, I find my kids are more willing to eat fruit (ironically) we we are outside on a hot day. Try things like watermelon, grapes, and clementines/oranges. | Vegan Haven

Did you know a fitted sheet might be one of the best things you could carry to the beach. Don’t worry, we aren’t asking you to fold it. In fact, laying it out, upside down, will help keep sand from blowing on your blanket. Okay, let’s be honest. Sand will be everywhere. | Team Johnson

I have been trying to not share this idea with you again, but I have to because it’s magical. When your body is covered with sand, apply baby powder. It will take it right off. Works every time!

Another solution to removing sand is a sand removing mit found on Amazon.

The beach is incredibly exciting. Having sand on your cool beverage just reminds you that you are no longer at your desk in an office with four walls. However, sand on your drink gets old. Grab a drink spike!

Forget nothing with this free printable beach packing list!

Milk and Cookies Popsicles

We twisted everyone’s favorite dessert into a yummy treat, Milk and Cookies Popsicles! This Popsicle recipe features Golden OREOs. We did not use whole milk in this recipe, we used our secret ingredient Almond Milk. We make a lot of smoothies in our home, so Almond Milk is a pretty common staple ingredient for us. To add more flavor, we included sugar and vanilla extract. If you need a Popsicle mold, these are like the molds we used.

Enjoy!

Ingredients:

2 cups Unsweetened Vanilla Almond milk
¼ cups Sugar
2 tsp. Vanilla Extract
Golden OREOs
Popsicle molds – these are like the molds we used, but they have many more options!

Directions:

Pour two cups of unsweetened vanilla almond milk into a blender.
Add in ¼ cup of sugar.
Mix in 2 teaspoons of vanilla.
Blend until the mixture is well combined.
Place one whole Golden Oreo into the bottom of each Popsicle mold.
Break another Golden Oreo into fourths, and layer it the rest of the way to the top of each Popsicle mold.
Pour your Popsicle mixture into each mold to fill it to the top.
Place the tops on each of the Popsicle molds.
Put the Popsicles in the freezer for at least 5 hours.
When ready to serve, you can loosen the Popsicle in the molds with some warm running water.

Twist up this popular dessert into a tasty treat for summer, Chocolate Covered Strawberry Popsicles. This frozen dessert features yogurt, strawberries, and a hardening chocolate sauce!

Chocolate Covered Strawberry Popsicles

We our family wants to go out for dessert, we often hit a bakery. This allows everyone to get what the desire… and living in a major city, we are fortunate to have about half a dozen dessert options within a 3 miles radius… is that fortunate, or trouble? When we hit these bakeries, one of my favorite items to get for myself are chocolate covered strawberries, but sometimes it feels like an arm and a leg to get just one. I mean, two dollars for that strawberry? I think not when I know I can get a small carton of strawberries for that price! Anyways, my sweet tooth always wins and the frugal in me always falls (insert sad face.) This summer, I wanted to create a treat for the kids and I that was a fraction of what it would cost for me to hit up the bakery – Chocolate Covered Strawberry Popsicles.

These Chocolate Covered Strawberry Popsicles had my kids in mind (thus the sprinkles and Magic Shell, but you could always adapt the recipe to your own taste buds – like how about melting some Ghirardelli Chocoalte Chips with no sprinkles – we think mom, aka me, would love that!

Enjoy!

Chocolate Covered Strawberry Popsicles

Ingredients:

2 cup Sliced strawberries
1 cup Vanilla Greek yogurt
¼ cup Sugar
Smucker’s Chocolate Magic Shell chocolate
Sprinkles
Popsicle molds – these are like the molds we used, but they have many more options!

Directions:

Place 2 cups of sliced strawberries into a blender.
Mix in 1 cup of vanilla Greek yogurt.
Add in ¼ cup of sugar.
Blend the mixture until it is smooth and well combined.
Pour the strawberry mixture into Popsicle molds until they are full.
Place the lids on the Popsicle molds.
Put the Popsicle in the freezer for no less than 5 hours.
Fill a small wide-mouthed cup or jar with Magic Shell chocolate topping.
Dip the frozen strawberry yogurt pops down into the chocolate. Let it sit for a second or two.
Before the chocolate shell hardens, add some sprinkles so that they will stick.
Place the Popsicle onto a plate or cookie sheet, and put them back in the freezer for 15 minutes.
Remove the Popsicle from the freezer and serve!
