Choco-Banana Gluten Free Granola Bites
When the monsters awake from their slumber, it’s always a guess what they’re going to want for breakfast. They’re imdivually picky and equally hard to please so it takes effort to find something they all agree upon. I was pleased they all love these yummy chocolate banana granola bites aka mini muffins! They’re gluten free and no added sugar too! Not only do they make for a quick breakfast or to pop in their lunchbox, they’re a great after school snack and have a little extra protein and hidden fruit and veggie in them too! I hope your kiddos enjoy them as much as mine do! Ingredients: 2 mashed…

Honey Balsamic Chicken Stir-Fry
Tonight’s dinner took 10 minutes start to finish. 1-2 minutes to chop chicken and veggies (we grill a bunch of chicken on Sunday for meal prep during the week). 7 minutes to cook it all in the skillet. 1 minute to plate and serve! ***Cauliflower rice is such a healthy alternative especially if you’re gluten free or following a low carb plan. You can’t even tell the difference! My husband loved it and he doesn’t eat cauliflower! For the Stir Fry: 2 c chopped chicken (grilled it yesterday- we use it for meal prep!) 1 pkg frozen riced cauliflower 1 large red bell pepper- diced 2 c…

Pumpkin Spice Waffles
With three kids with different preferences, I have learned that if I give into everyone’s requests I’d be a short order cook with an even shorter temper! So when one kid asks for waffles, and one kid asks for muffins, I make one big batch and put some in muffin tins and some in the waffle maker. Then everyone’s happy! This is the same recipe for my Pumpkin Chocolate Chip mini muffins but the only exception is I left out the chocolate chips. They could go either way. Or add nuts. Or sub pumpkin for banana. Or applesauce. Whatever your little one’s hearts desire! Pumpkin Spice Waffles: Ingredients: 1…

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Mini Muffins
I can’t get enough “holiday smell” in my house. It’s an addiction. I put away my pumpkin spice candle yesterday and busted out holiday spice and that cinnamon smell took over my house last night. It was heavenly. We decorated the tree. We hung our stockings. We listened to Christmas music and all was complete. Until I woke up this morning and missed that pumpkin smell. So I fixed it. Well, I fixed muffins. And waffles. With pumpkin and spices and warmth and honey and deliciousness. And they tasted amazing and are guilt free too! Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins: Ingredients: 1 1/3 c brown rice flour 1/2 cup quick cook…

Gluten Free Chicken Noodle Soup
When I was little, my mom made this homemade chicken noodle soup that was to die for. Every time I was sick. I could count on this yummy, creamy, delicious soup. I couldn’t even tell you what she put in it (maybe I should ask her for the recipe) but it was delicious. So with some change-in-the-season coughs coming around, a runny nosed toddler, a croupy three year old, and a feverish 6 year old, it was time for some crockpot chicken noodle soup today. Every child needs that one soup memory. That warm your soul, heal me when I’m sick, best mommy remedy. This is that soup. …
