Here I will be sharing some of my food for thought and favourites from my vast cookbook collection (I have a bit of a weak spot for them) and websites that I use. Many will be gluten free, dairy free and Very low fat, but are still wrapped in a healthy, easy and tasty package that the whole family will enjoy!

So don't be afraid to experiment a little bit...the kids will be fine if they don't eat the chicken for one meal, and maybe you'll be surprised and they'll LOVE it...you'll never know if you don't go there.

Anytime Pancakes

This is a really basic recipe that is great to improv with..you can pretty much do anything you or your kids like to it...I usually make them unique once I scoop them into the pan...from blueberry, chocolate chip, apple, raisin and cinnamon...get creative.  Great for snacks with yogurt, breakfast, lunch, dinner, whenever.  You can make them, cool them off and put them in a freezer bag and in the freezer for something quick and healthy in the week.  Just have to drop them into the toaster for a quick warm up.

1 cup of milk
1 cup of flour (any kind of blend will work, ie 1/2 all purpose, 1/2 whole wheat)
1 Tablespoon baking powder
2 eggs
3 Tablespoons of sugar
Pinch of salt
1 Teaspoon of vanilla

  3. I haven't tried this recipe, but I tried the concept. I made a whole bunch of french toast and froze them. Breakfasts are now very fast - adn healthy! :) Thanks for the idea.
