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.No-Bake Easter Egg NestsThese treats taste like oatmeal raisin cookies and are naturally sweetened by dates! We used coconut flour, making it a grain free and gluten free treat. Oh, and for all those celebrating Passover, this works for that holiday too (as long as peanut butter is part of your tradition)! Cookies bring us all together✌️
Easter Apple PopsSpring is here and we’re celebrating with this Easter-inspired snack activity! With just an apple, mixed fruits, chocolate, and our newest favorite obsession air-puffed corn rings, our kids were able to pour their creativity into these apple pops to make a bunny, chick, carrot, and Easter egg.Citrus Honey Orange MuffinsIt’s pure magic when sweet golden honey combines with fresh citrusy orange and creates an explosion of caramelized goodness in muffin form. 💫 Grain-free and made with almond flour, these muffins are also perfect for Passover!
We love baking these honey orange muffins because they’re perfect for little hands & lunchbox snacks, they’re a great vitamin C-rich meal prep breakfast food, and also because they’re oh so crave-worthy 🤤.
(#sponsored) These sweet + springy muffins are made with organic orange juice from @unclemattsorganic. We love this family owned company because their products are truly clean label: certified glyphosate residue free, no toxic pesticides, no GMOs, and no preservatives. And did I mention their orange juice tastes so fresh + sweet? Sawyer goes through bottles and bottles (and bottles) 😂.(Plant-Based) Easter Egg Charcuterie Board🐣 With the holidays approaching, I’m always looking for nutritious yet easy holiday-inspired snack ideas to feed my kids (and any guests that may stop by 🏃♂️ ). I’ve found snack plates to be such a great option to incorporate veggies into my kids’ diets while making it fun. In addition to veggies or fruits, I love adding a healthy fat (avocado from our homemade guacamole) and plant-based protein.
🌱 #sponsored Our newest obsession @eatnowadays plant-based nuggets are delicious + convenient (8-10 min and they’re done!), yet also healthful and made with 7 clean + simple plant-based ingredients. They’re packed with 13g of protein, contain no added sugars, and are soy-free!

A little snack art also gets my kids excited to try new veggies that they normally wouldn’t eat (hello bell peppers… we see you!)! 🫣
🌱 #sponsored We’re obsessed with @beanitoschips mac ‘n cheese baked bean crunch snacks & their white bean tortilla chips. With 5g of plant-based protein and 4g fiber per serving, it’s a clean snack I’m happy to serve to my children. I love that the main ingredient in their chip recipe is fresh whole beans, which they proudly source from American farmers.
🌱 On our charcuterie board we also used @thegoodbeansnacks crunchy chickpeas. We love that one serving has as much protein as almonds, as much fiber as two cups of broccoli and as much folate as three cups of spinach!No-Bake Bird Nest Cookies (candy version)Although we don’t celebrate Easter, Liv & Sawyer learned about the holiday through Peppa Pig’s Easter egg hunt, and once they saw chocolate was involved, they begged me to join in on the festivities 😂.
These no-bake nests taste like oatmeal raisin cookies and are naturally sweetened by dates. We used coconut flour, making it a grain free and gluten free treat. Oh, and for all those celebrating Passover, this works for that holiday too (as long as peanut butter is part of your tradition)! Cookies bring us all together✌️
Frosted Rainbow Carrot Muffins (whole wheat flour version) It always feels like a win when my kids think they’re getting dessert for breakfast, and I’m just silently laughing that they’re eating (and enjoying) carrots for their meal. It’s payback for all the grey hairs they put on this head. 😝
These muffins are perfect for breakfast or a make-ahead snack for lunchboxes. They contain whole grains, protein from Greek yogurt, and are naturally sweetened with pure maple syrup.
