Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat Kabobs with Strawberries and Marshmallows

Dr. Seuss Week is being celebrated at my son’s school this week. How sweet! I’m not sure how I feel about him going to school in pajamas though. I feel a little weird about that. Butttt….the school thinks it’s a fun idea so we’ll just go with it. We made these yummy Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat Waffles the other morning. They were such a hit, so I think I’ll serve them again the morning he heads to school in his fave PJ’s. 🙂

Because I’m just a cool mom {HA!} I made these fun Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat kababs with strawberries and marshmallows. There’s nothing glorified about these, other than the fact that they’re de-lish dipped in chocolate pudding. Ohhh yeah! Love me some chocolate pudding with strawberries. It’s just a fun and easy thing to throw together…and I strive for quick and easy!

Since little man loves him some chocolate pudding too, I thought it’d be fun to make these. They’re so super easy…obviously. But still, I thought I’d post about it here in case you’re looking for an easy peasy way to celebrate Dr. Seuss Week too.

You’ll Need:

Then, all you do is layer the berries and marshmallows onto the skewer. I started with a marshmallow and layered 3 of each on…ending with a strawberry. That’s how the Cat in the Hat hat looks…so that’s what we did. You can layer more on though, if you’d like. Heck, fill up the whole kabob!!

Dip in chocolate pudding for extra yumminess!

Dr. Seuss week is being celebrated at little man’s school next week. I love that! Makes me think of all of Dr. Seuss books I read when I was itty bitty, and now he gets to enjoy all things Seuss too! He’ll love getting to wear his favorite Dr. Seuss pajamas to school one day next week. That’s one of the little things they get to do.

I thought these waffles would be FUN for him to have the morning he heads to school in his PJ’s. Something simple. Something cute and fun. Something that resembles the Cat in the Hat’s actual HAT!

We’re calling these the Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat Breakfast Waffles. You can find the handy dandy printable recipe down below if you’d like to print it out and stick back in your recipe box.

 

Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat Waffles

Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat Breakfast Waffles

You’ll need:

  • Frozen Waffles (unless you want to make scratch waffles)
  • Redi-Whip
  • Strawberries
  • *Syrup

We didn’t use any syrup on ours. The Redi-Whip started melting after I put it on and we let that be our “syrup”. However, maple syrup would be good but warm strawberry syrup {YUM} would be even better!!!

Directions:

  • Just fix your waffles according to the package directions. Allow to cool for just a few minutes so the Redi-Whip doesn’t melt too fast.
  • Layer Redi-Whip on top of the waffles.
  • Add halved strawberries all around the edge of the Redi-Whip.
  • Add another layer of Redi-Whip.
  • Add another layer of strawberries.
  • Add one more layer of Redi-Whip in the center….sort of piled into a peak.
  • Then top with a strawberry.

Enjoy!!!
