I love making scones as they are a) incredibly easy to make b) pretty fool proof and c) you can really add in anything (sweet or savoury) to them and they generally turn out ok. Little Lady is currently going through a phase where she weirdly likes food that is green so I am trying to add in some element of “greenness” to her food. These Spinach and Cheese Scones are so easy to make and tick all the criteria that my 2.5y old Princess requires for an easy snack or meal. They are a bit green, easy to hold and taste yummy and for my criteria they are full of iron and calcium, take hardly any effort to make and freeze beautifully. They are also egg free so a great option for those little ones who are allergic. Perfect for a snack or a meal and easy food on the go! Continue reading

Breakfasts Galore
One of the most common things I am asked for are breakfast ideas. I thought I would combine all the breakfast recipes I have posted here for an easy to use reference guide when deciding what to make when you want something quick, easy, tasty and nutritious for the start of the day.
Carrot and apple stars biscuits
I find the most successful recipes are usually the simplest ones. Todays MyMiniMeals Mates Monday recipe is from a lovely lady called Jude on my FB group who showed us all these delicious carrot and apple star biscuits and so far everyone who has made them has loved them. They are so easy to make and are great for a snack or dessert and freeze beautifully. They don’t contain any refined sugar but they do have some honey so aren’t suitable for under 1’s. You could remove the honey if you liked and I am sure they would be as yummy just not as sweet.
3 Ingredient Sweet Potato Biscones
I’m always on the hunt for snack ideas for my kids and especially love finding sugar free biscuit recipes. This one is bound to please as it only has 3 ingredients and takes 20 minutes from start to finish. Even the Boy – who as you know by now rarely eats any of my “creations” – wolfed down 3 of them!

Yummy Chewy “Biscuits”
This is another recipe I found online but, when I tried it, it just didn’t work so I adapted it and the result are “biscuits” that are like chewy in the middle “fudgy” cookies. I have to admit they look unattractive but are really yummy. Perfect for a snack, dessert or breakfast.
