Using whole grains to make baby cereal or other grain based recipes is always better than using refined and enriched grains. Whole grains retain all of their natural and wholesome goodness. Because they are not highly processed and stripped of the parts that contain important nutrients, whole grains will offer the most bio-available nutrients for [...]
Pumpkin can be used for so many dishes and can be made savory or sweet. Pumpkin is a super choice for creating a highly nutritious and delicious stash of homemade baby food too! Pumpkins are becoming more and more abundant in grocery stores, farmer’s markets and at local orchards. Living in New England during the [...]
Roasting veggies brings out their delicious, and sometimes sweet and nutty, flavor unlike any other form of cooking. Another great thing about roasting veggies is the lack of intense preparation needed! Yesterday I roasted some parsnips, purple-top turnips, carrots and 1 bulb of garlic – total delicious yumminess! I combined the prepared veggies with some [...]
During the Fall, I use the crock-pot a lot. When the weather begins to get colder and the kids’ activities begin to consume us, tossing a meal in the crock-pot is simple and we are rewarded with a nice warm and hearty meal. The crock-pot is also a great way to prepare fruits! I decided [...]
Fall is a great time of year for introducing solid foods and for introducing new spices and herbs to your little one! If your baby is just starting out on solid foods, Pumpkin, Apple, Butternut and other Winter Squash and Pears are just a few of the super delightful and tasty foods that come out [...]
Between September and November, the cauliflower comes into season and you may find it at many farmer’s markets and also fresh in the grocery store. The cauliflower is one of those veggies that many have a love-hate relationship with. In my house, we’re fickle when it comes to cauliflower. Sometimes my kiddos will eat it [...]
Butternut Squash is one of our favorite Fall veggies. Preparing and cooking butternut squash can be a bit time consuming but the delicious end result is worth it! In a post last year I asked Is your pumpkin or winter squash puree plagued with hard strings? A few parents had emailed that their squash puree [...]
Fall is just starting to roll in here in New England. This means the leaves will be turning amazing shades of red, gold, yellow, orange and even brown. If you have never experienced a New England Fall foliage season then I highly suggest you put it on your bucket list. Fall also ushers in fresh [...]
My crockpot cracked a few months ago and I have not replaced it yet. Knowing that the power would be going out and that we have limited use of appliances with the generator, I decided to try some rice cooker oatmeal. This is just like making overnight crockpot oatmeal but without the overnight. Oatmeal is [...]
So I can’t post a picture because, well to be honest, there was nothing to photograph once I was finished *sheepish grin* This is the trouble with some recipes, you just have to learn to control yourself and stop sampling because you may turn around and find your creation gone, poof, vanished straight into the belly of [...]
Pumpkin pie is one of my favorite foods of Thanksgiving! My little ones were lucky because when Thanksgiving rolled around, they were 11 months old and I happily served them some homemade pumpkin pie. They totally enjoyed digging into their slices of pie and today, pumpkin pie remains one of their most favorite foods of all. [...]
I have been trying to get a batch of butternut squash and apple soup made for, oh about a week now. For the last 3 weeks, my poor family (myself included) has been hit with the flu and other various and sundry Fall/Winter sickies. It’s been a tough November so far and I think once [...]
