Buttery chocolate cookie

Buttery chocolate cookie This is sort of a take on an afghan biscuit. It’s simple to make and oh, so delicious. Buttery and crispy. You can make with various cereals so flexible. They also keep really well. Recipe – buttery chocolate cookie 100g butter softened (yes, it is a lot – high calorie for those […]

Snow peas

Snow peas I love all the cool fruit and veg that are available over summer in Aotearoa NZ. Unfortunately, as the season is so short you do have to jump on things! Snow peas are a great way to generate interest in peas, even if eating is not quite within the grasp at the moment.

Crunchy cornflake cookies

Crunchy cornflake cookie One of the mums on my FB page wanted a crunchy cookie for her daughter who will not eat most biscuits or cakes. She does however, love blueberries so I tried to combine the two! It is crunchy, it does contain blueberries (but those could be subbed for other fruit or even

Chocolate zucchini cake

Chocolate zucchini cake I make my own oat milk and often turn the soaked oats into porridge. As it’s so warm I was thinking of other ways to use them, and a cake was the obvious choice. As it’s summer in NZ, zucchini is in season so cheap and plentiful. Bonus is that you wouldn’t

Science experiments with food

Science experiments involving food Many of us had drilled into us “don’t play with your food” and as a parent, I don’t want my children to be ‘messing’ about with food at the table. However, and I think you can make a distinction between play and anti-social behaviour. There are also many positives to playing

Chocolate smoothie

Chocolate smoothie This is a simple, quick, and delicious way to boost nutrients and calories. It also makes a pretty good ice-creamish option. Drinking is often easier than drinking for fussy eaters so branching out may not be quite as challenging too. Recipe – chocolate smoothie 1 ripe banana¼ cup of cream (optional but does

Porridge cookies

Porridge cookies I am not a fan of waste, so when my son failed to tell me he was not going to be home for breakfast, and I’d made porridge (from the leftover oats from making oat milk 😉) I was a bit stuck. But the internet is an excellent place for rectifying mistakes. Enter

Peach smoothie

Peach smoothie I often make a filling smoothie for my youngest (who is no longer small). He has high calorie needs and a boost of dairy for calcium, quality yoghurt for gut health and fruit for extra vitamins is a good way to fill him up after a long evening at work on top of

Sausage rolls

Sausage rolls I can’t remember ever making sausage rolls before – gasp! True story 😊 I had some pork mince and wanted to do something different with it and BAM there it was! What I love about this is how flexible the recipe is. It could be perfect for children who eat sausages but also
