I am obsessed with making pasta sauces for my toddler and I that contain nutrient-dense ingredients. I’ve come up with many pasta sauces including an avocado cauliflower sauce, kale sauce, broccoli sauce, etc. This sauce is my first sauce using any sort of squash, and it is one I will […]
We always have leftover over rice hanging around in the fridge and I always end up throwing it away. I got creative and decided to make a rice ball, and I didn’t even know how easy it was to make and how delicious they are! This recipe is also incredibly […]
Comforting is what comes to mind when I think of this meal. Meatballs in my opinion are always considered a comfort food, but when you add gravy to it, it’s hard for me think of anything else that’s more perfect for dinner this time of year. These chicken meatballs feature […]
Sweet potato “jack-o-lanterns” are a fun way to make your dinner side Halloween festive! I love this because this recipe is different from a typical sugary-sweet holiday treat (not that there’s anything wrong with sweets). Creating your lanterns is simple, and the cinnamon gives them great flavor when roasting! This […]
I made these butterscotch haystacks last year as a little Halloween treat for my husband and I (Willow was 6 months then), and we loved them so much I knew I needed to blog them this year. This recipe is sweet, crunchy and so fun to make for Halloween. This […]

I need multiple pick me ups throughout my day (life as a tired mom), and instead of grabbing a candy bar, I grab these instead! These energy cookies are sweet, chewy, full of texture and full of healthy ingredients. These cookies are perfect for toddlers, as they provide energy, great […]
As a toddler mom, I am always looking for new ways to add veggies into my daughter’s meals. Incorporating veggies into pasta sauces is my favorite way to do just that. This recipe not only incorporates veggies, but this recipe I made for specifically using frozen veggies! I always have […]
My daughter is peanut butter obsessed (as am I), and so I like to add peanut butter to anything I can! This smoothie started out as just a pumpkin smoothie, but then by adding peanut butter to it, the sip became nutty and rich. I would argue that the peanut […]
I love making pancakes for my toddler, especially when they are healthy and nutritious for her. These spinach pancakes are not only healthy, but the texture and flavor of them are so good that I will also eat them with her! There is a slight sweetness to the pancakes from […]
