Kid-Friendly Real Food Recipes

I am guest posting today over at Simply Real Food! Go check it out!!

Time to enter your recipes!!  What real-food recipes do you have that are especially kid-friendly?  That is, no exotic flavors, unusual spices, etc.  Yes, real food kids are notorious for eating lots of un-kid-friendly foods, but let’s keep it simple this time. :)

Here’s mine:

Bekah’s Favorite Smoothie

My smoothies grew so fancy that I tired of always hauling out all the ingredients for Bekah.  Then I discovered she was allergic to some anyway.  The original version of this smoothie called only for orange juice, banana, and a handful of frozen berries – whatever I had around.  The additional ingredients (coconut oil, flax seed oil, raw honey) are added for their nutritional benefits.

Ingredients:

½ c. orange juice

½ banana

¼ c. blueberries, frozen

¼ c. strawberries, frozen

¼ c. raspberries, frozen

1 tbsp. coconut oil

1 tsp. flax seed oil

1 tbsp. raw honey

Water (as needed)

Directions:

Mix all ingredients together in a blender.  Add water as needed to get the preferred consistency.  Makes 1 serving.

    Hi,
    I posted the link to "soaked" oatmeal cookies- healthy cookies, who can beat that? I also posted about crockpot pear sauce this week on my blog (like applesauce) but since not every kid likes pears (but don’t they all like cookies?) I didn’t share that one :)

    Thanks for the smoothie recipe- I am always looking for a good recipe since everyone just "throws it in the blender." So nice to actually have ingredients to plan for. :)

Got something to say? Go for it!
