How do you eat your Babybel cheese?

I like to peel mine  then pop the whole thing into my mouth!

As I savor the cheesy goodness, I find myself feeling uplifted by its delicious, slightly salty flavor.

Its one my all time favorite cheese of all time.

This time, I decided to put into a recipe that is both delicious and spooky!

Babybel has come out with a limited time Halloween packaging of their cheese.  Their original flavored cheese has new cellos with different icons of Halloween.

I think the Dracula one is my favorite.  Which one is your favorite?

– Jack-o-lantern

– Dracula

– Frankenstein’s Monster

– Skull

– Devil

Lucky for you and me, Target is giving 10% off these Mini Babybel Cartwheel.  This deal runs through early November, so, hurry now.  Collect these cello wrappers, like me.

Babybel Cheese Ingredients

Babybel Cheese contain 100% real cheese.  They use real milk in their cheese making them a good source of calcium and protein.

They also use vegetarian rennet in their cheese making process.  Since they don’t use any artificial growth hormones*, their cheese is vegetarian friendly.  How cool is that!?

*Quick disclaimer – No significant difference has been shown between milk derived from rBTS – Treated and non-rBST treated cows

Tips For Making Babybel Strudel

– Thaw the pastry for about 1 hour at room temperature before using it

– Lightly roll out the pastry dough.  Don’t make it too thin

– Set your oven to 350° or 375°.  Don’t set it higher than that temperature

– Use almond milk or hazelnut milk to baste the strudel.  It will make the outside crispier

– After 16 minutes in the oven, turn of the oven.  Do not remove the baking tray for another 8 minutes.  This will make sure that strudel continues to bake without the cheese oozing out

Other Ingredients For The Babybel Strudel Filling

I went with cherry pie filling, but, you can use any fruit filling or just use fresh fruit.  I tried it with green apples and agave syrup.  It was so delicious!

– Peach pie filling

– Apple pie filling

– Dark chocolate

– Green apples

– maple syrup

– Fresh fruits

– Peanut butter

– You can even go the savory route by using my homemade pizza sauce

What’s your favorite filling recipe?

Babybel Recipes for Snack Time

I have always loved eating Babybel with apples.  They make for a fun snack and its one way to get me to eat an apple.

Serving it with pretzels or any type of trail mix recipe is also a fun way to serve them.  I like how the pretzel’s crunch compliments the creamy texture of Babybel cheese

When I was at target, I also noticed that they also sell babybel with crackers.  I tried their cheese crackers with mini Babybel which turned out to be a great snack idea.

Its not just fruits and pretzels that babybel can be paired.  I have served them with veggies like carrots, celery and broccoli.

Or, serve with olives or banana peppers too.

The possibilities are endless when it comes to using Babybel as a snack.  There are so many possible combos that I know I will never get bored of eating them.

So, run to Target today and get 10% off Mini Babybel Cartwheel until November.  Come back and tell me your favorite way of snacking on these Babybel Cheese!

Happy Halloween!
