Mini-bagels are just the right size for an energizing snack. If your PB&J-loving kids also like fig cookies or bars, they will love that this sandwich is topped with fresh fig instead of jam. Better yet, the fruit’s melt-in-your mouth sweetness is packed with potassium and fiber along with the cancer-fighting antioxidants polyphenols.
