Best Bread Recipe Ever
Last year Santa bought me a bread machine. I had never considered making my own bread, I mean it is bread right? How could the stuff in the store be bad? So I thought I would stash it in a cabinet and take it out for special occasions. Until I took the time to read the ingredients for the store bought bread I was feeding my family with…. First, the list of ingredients is really long. Second, I could not even pronounce half of the...

So it was great news for us when I discovered just how beneficial watermelons are to our bodies. Nutritional facts of watermelons.

Probiotics Anyone?
What are probiotics? Probiotics are live microorganisms which maintain the balance of bad and good bacteria in your digestive tract. Everyone has them! In fact, our digestive tracts (which makes up more than 70 percent of our immune system) are flooded with trillions of bacteria – all alive. There are over 100 strains of probiotics, with more being discovered almost daily. The root of the word probiotic comes from the Greek word pro,...
Make Your Own Baby Food
Making baby food is so easy and is such a healthy alternative to the store bought jars/cans/pouches. With all the recalls, and factory foods these days, you just never know what you are going to get. This was not ok for me when it came time to introduce foods to my baby. Not only the nasty smells and possible recall at any time, but the preservatives and chemical additives some of them have… there was no way I was putting that into my...
Omg… Is that GMO?
In it’s truest form ‘GMO (genetically modified organism) is an organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques’ (1).

It is a ‘superfood’, it is amazing and does amazing things, but it is certainly...

My Family Meal Plan Explained
I have incorporated a few things into my Family Meal Plan I do think it is very important to have family dinners together. The rule of thumb in my house is one meal a day together – which usually is dinner but sometimes not (albeit rarely!). It is nice to sit, eat together and chat about our day. We do a question at dinner that everyone has to answer, like “What was your favorite part of the day?” So I urge you to try to sit together...
Introducing Food to Babies
What a great time in life – discovering food! Tastes, textures, smells – it is all new and exciting! As the parent doing the introducing it can be equally as scary as it can be exciting. This is why it is super important to be sure to talk with your pediatrician BEFORE taking ANYONE’S advice – even mine! For us, by about four months of literally breast-feeding every 2 hours (and yes my child was putting on great amounts of weight – I...
