Don’t Be Mean To Green

Now green always seems to be a tricky color to get into any kid on a good day. This is why I am a true believer in positive food color association as young as possible. Making green their favorite choice I always hoped would increase their chances of not turning their nose up to future veggies. So something like this Kiwi Apple Zucchini puree by Simply Whisked delicious. So good even you will be sneaking spoonfuls of it while you are cooking up a storm in the kitchen.  

Go-Go Baby

Sometimes you have a little one that will barely stop for a diaper change let alone to eat. This is when trying to get them to sit and eat for any given period of time is next to impossible. Another reason why these Baby Led Weaning Muffins by My Kids Lick the Bowl is fantastic to give your go-go baby! These delicious little muffins that are super low in sugar and are made with apples, bananas and carrots are the perfect little on the go meal.
