My four-year-old son LOVES to watch The Great British Baking Show with me. I’m a lucky mom. It all started one day when he wandered out of quiet time while I was folding laundry and dreaming of traveling to Europe.

Hearty, kid-pleasing, and super fast to make--a winner of a dinner!If you know me in real life at all, you might have done a double take when you saw the title of today’s post.

Yes, my friends, you read that right. Megan just posted a recipe that involves hot dogs.

If you don’t know me in real life, let me give you a little background….

I really don’t like hot dogs….

Banana Sushi (a fun & healthy snack for kids)

After school snacks are essential at our house. This quick and easy, protein-rich banana sushi is a favorite healthy snack your little monkeys will love!After school snacks are essential at our house. This quick and easy, protein-rich banana sushi is a favorite healthy snack your little monkeys will love! Almost every day, the first thing my son says to me when I pick him up from school is “Mom, I’m really hungry.” Now, keep in mind, he eats a full lunch at school, and he has a small snack about 20 minutes before I pick him up. But this kid has the metabolism of a marathon-running cheetah…so he is ALWAYS hungry (send HELP when he becomes a teenager).

A few weeks ago I left all my boys at home while I flew to my parents’ house in California for the weekend. It was a great little getaway to see siblings, parents, and old high school friends. I had way too much fun…and stayed up way past my bedtime. Ugh, there is a reason I don’t stay up past midnight anymore.

Want a healthy and delicious snack for the whole family to enjoy? Make a big batch of these easy banana chocolate chip muffins, pop the extras in the freezer, and you’ll be ready when your little hungry hippos come nosing around.

Want a healthy and delicious snack for the whole family to enjoy? Make a big batch of these easy banana chocolate chip muffins, pop the extras in the freezer, and you'll be ready when your little hungry hippos come nosing around.This morning when I woke up, it was ONE degree outside. ONE! I can’t even say, “It’s freezing cold today!” because that doesn’t even begin to capture the depth of the cold. “Freezing” is an understatement. Does anyone else think that it should NOT be allowed to get that cold?

Little Man keeps asking me when it’s going to be summer again, and I hate having to tell him that we’ve still got several months of snow before we can break out the shorts and flip flops again. …

Hi all. It’s Friday again. I was planning to have a fun campfire recipe to share with you all today, but I have a sick toddler who thwarted my campfire plans. Look forward to it soon though, because it’s a good one!

The good news though, is that now I get to share these amazing muffins with you today. It’s no secret that we love a good muffin around here. I’ve shared our favorite blueberry muffins before, and we regularly make these applesauce oat muffins, too. We keep a supply of homemade muffins in the freezer that we can pull out and thaw for a snack (with yogurt is our favorite combination) several times a week….

This twist on a classic meatball sandwich is perfectly kid-sized and fun for everyone. Plus, it comes together SUPER fast for a great weeknight dinner.

It was Monday, and it was getting dangerously close to the time I needed to make dinner or face the wrath of hungry, cranky kids. I’m usually pretty good about planning our meals ahead of time, but I hadn’t gotten around to planning that week yet. So I started wracking my brain. …

White Chocolate Cranberry Granola Bites

These white chocolate cranberry granola bites are a tasty, protein and fiber-rich snack to keep on hand for hungry little hands (or big ones).

We go through a lot of snacks around here. And judging by the number of times they’ve told me “I’m hungry” this week (or, in Little Brother’s case, dragged me to the pantry with a pleading look on his face), I’m convinced my two little boys are going through growth spurts right now. Yesterday Little Man ate an entire burrito for his afternoon snack, and Little Brother had three helpings at dinner!

Kid-sized Food: Banana Wheels

Quite possibly the easiest snack food to make, banana wheels combine peanut butter, bananas, and Craisins to make a perfect kid-sized food for your little ones.These are quite possibly the easiest snack food ever to make. They really don’t even require a recipe, but my boys LOVE them, so I thought they were worth sharing. Banana wheels were born out of a desperate need to get my toddler to eat something other than graham crackers and goldfish (neither of which I’m opposed to, for the record, but–you know–variety is good occasionally) for a snack….
