Date & wheatbrick loaf

Other

Date & wheatbrick loaf The perfect way to use up the crumbles at the bottom of the cereal box! It’s simple to make and could be a breakfast option. For fussy eaters stuck on limited options for breakfast this may be an addition. My teen really enjoyed it even though I found it a little […]

Apple French toast

Other

Apple French toast The photo does not make it look particularly appetising as I decided to cut the bread into cubes instead of leaving whole. If I did it again I would cut in half or quarters instead! This is a bit of a riff on French toast, using apple puree alongside the other ingredients.

High-protein yoghurt cake

Other

High protein yoghurt cake I love this for a bucket full of reasons: – It’s a good protein boost – For a cake it’s got lots of nutrient dense ingredients – It’s super simple to make (I’m rubbish at making cakes and it turned out perfectly) – It uses normal pantry ingredients – It’s got

Rice bubble bars

Other

Rice bubble bar I found a recipe that looked good but then changed it to be a fit for my parameters: 1. Fussy friendly 2. Ingredients most families use 3. Nutrient dense It has the texture of a chewy muesli bar (holds together super well) but also crunch from the rice bubbles. Simple, no-bake, flexible,

Cereal crusted toast sticks

Cereal crusted toast sticks I discovered this awesome recipe for French toast that was baked in the oven instead of fried in the pan. The recipe ticks boxes for many fussy eaters: – It’s crunchy – It’s dry– It’s got extra protein– It can be adapted to suit I took the original recipe and added

Chocolate cookie bar

Other

Chocolate cookie bar I thought this was a good recipe to test out over the holidays. It contains chocolate but is also quite nutrient dense. In fact, I would classify this as more of a muesli bar than a ‘cookie’ and it holds together fabulously. If you have a child who can’t manage muesli bars

Why children refuse new foods

Why children refuse new foods Do you wonder why your child refuses a food that you KNOW they would love if they just tried it? Are you left gobsmacked that they turn down the donut/popsicle/biscuit, even though EVERYONE loves them? I came across an interesting piece of research over the weekend that asked children why

Cheesy souffle

Other

Cheesy souffle Admittedly, these don’t look great, but they are super simple and a massive protein boost. Texturally, they may not be a win for everyone. If your child enjoys scrambled eggs, for example, then that’s probably the closest way to describe these (although it’s smooth, not ‘chunky’). They are light, fluffy and moist. For
