Banana Spinach MuffinsWe made these blender muffins in honor of St. Patrick’s Day! These chocolate chip banana muffins are always a hit with the kids and their friends (and no one even complains that the beautiful green color comes from SPINACH!!). We love using spinach because it adds such great nutritional value without compromising the sweet flavor of the muffin. Spinach is a such great source of fiber that helps fuel growth of healthy gut bacteria.

Chocolate Chip Pumpkin MuffinsDid you know that you can replace flour with ALMOND BUTTER and it’ll create a moist, fluffy, delicious muffin?! 🤯. Such a great autumn treat that packs great nutritional content from the pumpkin puree and is sweetened naturally by pure maple syrup. Perfect for breakfast, snack, and kids’ lunchboxes!

Oatmeal Raisin Breakfast CookiesThese breakfast cookies are nutritious enough for breakfast, yet taste like dessert! Made with wholesome sprouted oats, potassium-rich bananas, creamy peanut butter that's high in protein, and naturally sweet pure maple syrup, these cookies have easy, clean ingredients and come together in about 20 minutes! Vegan + gluten-free!

Frosted Rainbow Carrot Muffins (almond flour version)Spring is finally here and that means it's carrot season! While Liv is a self-proclaimed carrot hater (thanks to my husband), she can't resist these frosted carrot muffins. She loves taking them for her school snack, and I love knowing she's getting some vitamin-rich carrots in during the day.

Chocolate Chip+Peanut Butter+Banana MuffinsWith a soft pull apart texture on the inside and the sweet flavors of gooey chocolate, creamy peanut butter, and sweet banana, these muffins will have you begging for more. Trust me, you need to try this recipe.

Peanut Butter Acai PopsiclesThis popsicle is the perfect refreshing spring & summertime treat or even a make-ahead breakfast idea! Acai is rich in antioxidants, deliver healthy fats and fiber, and is low in sugar. These popsicles are creamy and rich from the acai/peanut butter mix, filled with nutritious banana, blueberry, and strawberry pieces, and dipped in sweet granola surrounded by chia and flaxseed.

No-Bake Granola BarsHave you ever looked at the ingredients in store-bought granola bars? Generally, there are around 15+ hard to pronounce ingredients and always a load of added refined sugars. Homemade is such a great option because besides tasting delicious, you can see the simple and clean ingredients going into the bars. Made with sprouted rolled oats, protein-rich natural peanut butter and sweetened by pure honey, these NO-BAKE bars will become your new favorite granola treats!

Blender Banana Spinach Pancakes

Did you know that spinach is one of the most zinc-rich veggies? Zinc is important for many bodily functions such as strengthening your immune system (helping you fight a cold) + aiding in wound healing (for all those bruised knees). 🍃 These pancakes are made with clean simple ingredients like oats, spinach + bananas, and come together quickly in a blender. Not feelin that spinach?? Don’t worry! You can’t even taste it… the result is sweet caramelized banana pancakes (that happen to have green specks in them 😉)

Maple Smash Cake with Yogurt FrostingInspired by @yummytoddlerfood, we made this patriotic maple cake with yogurt frosting for my son’s first birthday cake smash, but it was so delicious that I now make it for special occasions and holidays. Made with simple clean ingredients, this cake can be made dairy-free (sub in coconut milk yogurt), and always yields a moist, deliciously sweet cake.

Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Banana Donuts🍩 Donuts for breakfast?? AMEN to that! Sawyer has a habit of coming downstairs for breakfast and asking for the most random foods. For a week straight, he only wanted turkey slices and cucumbers at 8am. This week, he only wants chocolate (my kinda guy!). These breakfast treats are a great compromise when my kids want sweets for breakfast, and I don’t feel like explaining why that’s not the best idea 😅😅 🍌 Made with nutritious gluten-free whole grain oats, sweetened naturally by fruit and pure maple syrup, and protein-rich from peanut butter, these donuts are great for meal prep as well as on-the-go snacks.

Black Bean Lentil QuesadillasWith Cinco De Mayo coming up this week, I figured I’d share our favorite family-friendly Mexican inspired dishes! 🌱 These quesadillas are packed with THREE sources of plant based protein: black beans, lentils, and our favorite quinoa! 🧀 Such an easy way to change up the classic cheese quesadilla, these are hearty and delicious!

Salmon Veggie PattiesDo your kids eat fish? While Sawyer loves salmon, lately Liv has been hesitant to eat fish unless it’s made into a breaded patty (I find finger foods are always a hit with my kids). I also add caramelized onions and sweet red bell pepper for extra vitamins, potassium, and fiber! 💡 The great thing about this recipe is that we usually use leftover cooked salmon from earlier in the week. I love repurposing leftovers so no one gets bored eating the same foods throughout the week.
