Lil Snappers–Fun Recipes

photo-14.jpg

Little Miss is a great fruit eater. She especially enjoys “kid sized” fruit. I guess if the fruit is too big it’s a little intimidating! Of course we were more than happy to try out Lil Snappers and their kid friendly recipes! Little Miss helped me choose this cute little smiley face to make. She [...]

“Mock” Tuna Salad

As you may have figured out by now, we were on vacation last week. By the time we got home, I wasn’t really in the mood to fix anything elaborate for next week’s lunches! Fortunately, I remembered a super-simple recipe that I’ve been wanting to try for a really long time. For a long time, [...]

Beet Burgers

I love a good homemade burger recipe.  I can whip up a batch on the weekend, freeze, and have an easy go-to meal during the week.  Recently, I had seen a lot of posts using beets as the base for the veggie burgers.  Beets are something I don’t eat very often, so the possibility of [...]

Now that I’m working full time, I’ve been trying to come up with some quick and easy lunch ideas.  Fortunately for me, I had the opportunity to review Sabra Hummus, which I love and it gave me a great lunch idea!  I love hummus – we almost always have it in our fridge, and it’s [...]

Now that I’m working, I’m looking for things that are good for taking to work.  This burger fit the bill!  Eat it on top of a pita if you’re like me and don’t like the challenge of stuffing things into pitas, or make a salad and throw one of these babies on top of it! [...]

One of Little Miss’ favorite snacks is pretzels.  If it were up to her, I think she would eat them every day for every meal!  Of course, it doesn’t bother me that much – pretzels are a pretty healthy snack, especially now when Snyder’s of Hanover has them with whole wheat, whole grains, oats, and [...]

Green and Healthy Bag Lunch Ideas

"monkey lunchbox"

Now that we’re back from Christmas break, I’m back to packing a lunch for Little Miss every day when she goes to school.  Fortunately for me, they have two snacks and their lunch each day, and they discourage unhealthy foods in lunches.  Because of this, you don’t have many issues with your child wanting what [...]

Hemp Burgers Recipe

Looking for a great way to add some important nutrients to your diet?  Hemp protein is a complete vegetarian protein.  Hemp Hearts are made by removing the hard outer shell of the hemp seed and packaging the most nutritious part of the seed, the inner kernel.  They are a great source of Omega-3 and Omega-6 [...]

This is pretty quick and easy, and a great way to use your homemade and healthy ground beef substitute.  This mixture is also really good on top of a salad. 

Vegan Buffalo Wings

This past year I’ve been working on getting rid of the processed foods that I use and replacing them with whole foods.  I realize that those frozen veggie patties, while convenient, are not that good for me and very expensive!   Slowly I’ve been replacing my freezer items with homemade alternatives.  I love having items [...]
