Sweet Potato Chocolate Chip Muffins
My family love these Sweet Potato Chocolate Chip Muffins made with sweet potato, banana, almond butter, and eggs. These muffins not only taste delicious but are packed with protein, fiber, and healthy fat. I make these regularly to pack as part of my girls’ school snack or an after dinner treat. I usually double the recipe because between the four of us they are gone in two days!
Mixed Berry Chia Jam
Making your own jam is super easy, delicious, and you can control the amount of sugar. Many store bought sugars have 12 grams of sugar in just one tablespoon which converts to 3 teaspoons of sugar! I love this recipe because of the added chia seeds which are packed with fiber, protein, and fat along with many vitamins and minerals.
Sweet Potato Quiche
Now that kids are back in school and all the after school activities are in full swing, quick and easy dinners become key! Sweet Potato Quiche is a family favorite around here. I love to serve it for an easy dinner, reheat it for breakfast, or bring it to a Sunday brunch. I recommend making it on the weekend so you can just pop it in the oven and reheat when needed. My family enjoys quiche with a side salad and avocado toast, sprinkled with Everything but the Bagel Spice. Sooo good!
Spinach Pancakes
Getting your kids in the kitchen is a great way to help expose kids to unfamiliar, possibly scary, foods, like spinach. We love making these Spinach Pancakes, which help bridge the gap between being fearful of spinach to making it enjoyable. Not only are these pancakes delicious and have spinach, they are also packed with protein, healthy fat and fiber, to help kids feel satiated until their next meal. We love these pancakes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or a snack!
Chocolate Chip Spinach Muffins
Do you have a picky eater (or as I like to say, a child who is still learning to like a variety of foods)? Are you looking for ways to get green veggies into your kid’s belly? My daughter Ayla loves these muffins! I put her in charge of making them because they go quick and I can’t keep up with production. These muffins are gluten free, diary free, nutrient dense, and loaded with fiber and healthy fats from the spinach, banana, flaxseeds, and hemp seeds. Chocolate Chip Spinach Muffins make a great snack, an after dinner treat, or part of a balance breakfast with scrambled eggs.
