Caterpillar Nuggets Recipe and Family Game Night. #DipDipHooray

We have been trying to incorporate more family game nights into our routines. It somehow seems to be a struggle to make them happen, but once they do, the payoff is worth it. We all end up laughing and having a great time together.

This week I decided to make a fun dinner instead of our usual types of dinner. Off to Walmart I went in search of the ingredients for my recipe creation.

But first we needed a new game for our Family Game Night.

I was not disappointed with the selection of games. Everything from card games, to puzzles and board games. No matter what you are looking for Walmart had a huge selection of games. For more pictures of my shopping trip be sure to check out my Google+ #DipDipHooray album.

In the end I settled on Scrabble for our Hasbro game night. Some creative meal solutions and we were set.

For the Caterpillar Nuggets you need:

* Tyson Chicken Nuggets
* Ore Ida French Fries
* Heinz Ketchup
* Vegetable of your choice

The best part of this meal is that it is so easy to make but a lot of fun to eat. Prepare the nuggets, fries and vegetables according to directions. Arrange the nuggets on the plate in a line. Use french fries as the legs, a dot of ketchup for the eyes, and voila.

After dinner we were ready for some games. It was our first time playing Scrabble with Genghis and he did really well with it. It was a great way to spend some quality time together and enjoy some much needed family time.

Right now you can visit the Hasbro Games Sweepstakes Micosite and enter UPC codes to unlock games and play. They are giving away lots of Hasbro games. You will have to register for the site but it is easy and quick. Then you just enter your UPC codes and see if you win. I was not lucky enough to win this time but I will be trying again!
