Here’s a cool idea! Next time you’re hosting, why not serve an entire meal on a stick? It can be fun, different and will save you a lot of cleaning.

Here are 5 ideas for food you can put on a stick.

Pancake & Sausage Corn Dogs

Cook the sausage in a cast-iron skillet, turning occasionally until done. In a large bowl, combine the pancake mix, cornmeal, and cinnamon. Stir to combine. Add the eggs, vanilla, and water, adding more water as needed for the batter to become slightly thick (but not over).

Fish and Chips

Have a look at this well-explanatory and easy recipe. There is nothing better than Fish & Chips.

Baked Tornado Potato

In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Mix well. Brush each potato skewer with the herb and garlic butter. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through and the edges are crispy.

S’mores on a Stick

Melt chocolate in a small microwaveable bowl. Dip top halves of marshmallows into melted chocolate; coat with graham crumbs. Insert lollipop stick into coated side of each marshmallow; place on waxed paper-lined tray. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Yogurt Pops

Place the yogurt, fruit (slightly thawed if using frozen) and honey in a blender. Blend to desired consistency (some like the fruit chunky and others like it smooth). Pour into paper cups, filling them 3/4 full. Cover the cups with foil. Put in the freezer for about 5 hours or until frozen solid.
