How is your October Unprocessed going? I feel it’s great to have a month to focus on consciously making better food choices. I’ve been enjoying experimenting with breakfast ideas for the kids – having been a cereal addicted family in the past, it’s refreshing to enjoy something different most mornings – and the kids are […]
Blueberry Bliss Smoothie
October 12, 2012 by
The generous people over at Groupon sent me a Gift Voucher to treat myself to anything from their large array of products/services available on their highly addictive website. After an enjoyable time searching, I was excited to find a product called “Shake ‘n Take”, which is a genius invention for making shakes/smoothies to enjoy on […]
Banana & Sweet Potato Treat
October 10, 2012 by
Now that Mr 4 is open to enjoying more and more foods, it’s inspired me to get even more creative with the foods I offer him. With him openly eating more and more vegetables, I’m finding fun ways to incorporate his new favorite flavors into some old favorites – like this little gem I came […]
Former Fussy Eater Update & Fish Poached in Milk
October 7, 2012 by
The past week has been somewhat monumental – my once fussy Mr 4 has started eating more and more new foods. Maybe it was the little reward chart we followed a couple of weeks back, or maybe it was following a number of valuable pieces of advice from French Kids Eat Everything: How Our Family […]
5 Raw Sweet Treats
October 5, 2012 by
With the first weekend of October Unprocessed approaching, I thought I’d share 5 Raw Sweet Treats for you to enjoy. For me, weekends are usually a time of indulgence and this weekend will be no different. I have a batch of Coconut Crack Bars in the fridge and shortly I’ll be heading back into the […]
Homemade Popcorn
October 3, 2012 by
We Love, Love, Love Popcorn in our house. In fact through both my pregnancies I ate bowlful after bowlful of popcorn (through my first pregnancy I think I lived on it!) – so the boys were even enjoying the healthy snack before they were born! I admit that in the past most Popcorn we ate […]
Banana & Coconut Bread
October 1, 2012 by
A friend of mine sent me the link to a Banana Cake Recipe which she said was so good that when she made it for a friend of hers, she ate the whole cake before the friend even had a chance to try it! That was a good enough reason for me to gather together […]
October Unprocessed
September 27, 2012 by
October Unprocessed is a challenge initiated by Andrew at Eating Rules. I love the premise of this challenge – to really think about what we’re eating and make changes for the better. Whether it’s for the whole month or a couple of days, and whether it’s 100% unprocessed or mostly unprocessed and with some exceptions […]
How To Get Your Fussy Eater To Try New Foods
September 24, 2012 by
It’s no secret that Mr 4 is my fussy eater – he is the inspiration behind me starting this blog, to help other parents of fussy eaters cope and keep their fussy eater nourished. This journey has taken a couple of detours along the way (including me going back to study at University to become […]
Polenta Biscotti
September 21, 2012 by
I’ve had a bag of Polenta staring at me from the pantry for a little while, so I decided to look up what interesting dishes I can cook with the ingredient. The first dish I cooked was Polenta Biscotti. This was my first attempt at making Biscotti of any description and I was incredibly happy […]
