Peanut Butter Berry Yogurt
Kids 6 and under can still show Mom the love in return for all of the PB+J’s she has meticulously made. A super bright protein-rich bowl topped with berries. No cooking required.
This riff on banana bread is made with nutritious foods like whole grain oats, flax and chia seeds, and cinnamon. It’s easy enough for the kids to do on their own, and makes enough for the whole family to enjoy.
French Toast is a special, indulgent breakfast, but this approach is a bit healthier and tastier, and the recipe is for one simple portion for only mom to enjoy.
Skillet meals are pretty genius, since you can fit all kinds of things into one pan for lots of nutrients and flavor, and they make clean-up super easy. This one is great for the whole crew and guaranteed to impress.
