Energizer Bunnies' Mommy Reports
Family, Faith and Fabulous Finds
The only way I can get the kids to eat raw-ish veggies is if I throw them into a Chinese Fried Rice. But ever since I've been following Bookieboo's "Eat Healthy!"initiatives, I've been inspired to re-vamp our family's eating lifestyle. It hasn't been easy but the little steps count. When it comes to Chinese cuisine, one HUGE flavor influence is soy sauce. But soy sauce is not exactly popular for its low sodium content. … [Read more...]
Our church holds an Easter potluck dinner every year. And this year the requests came in for desserts. Knowing most people would take in store bought and home baked cakes, I decided to do a quick sweet treat geared towards the kiddos... Choco-Peanut Butter Easter Cookies. Little did I realize these would be just as big a hit with the "big kids" as with the little ones! (Reminder to self: double proportions the next … [Read more...]
Yes I'm one of those mothers who finds immense joy in hiding veggies in my kids' food. In the beginning it started off as an experiment but now I think it has become a secret obsession! My kids wallop their favorite snacks and I gloat because a dollop of veggies went in and they didn't mind the serving of "healthy"! {Have you tried my Spinach Walnut Brownies yet? They're a favorite in our home.} My recent "sneak" project … [Read more...]
While browsing through recipes for a breakfast muffin with punch, I found Jaclyn's Morning Glory Muffins recipe. I have to admit that while it was everything I would have loved to bite into, our family's decision to eat healthier pushed me to make several modifications that hopefully will encourage you to try this recipe out. These grab-and-go muffins are wholesome... and yes delicious. Honestly what else could you … [Read more...]
I've been trying to steer my kids clear from greasy, oily, potato chips. Our healthier crunch-snack alternative right now?... Multi-grain pita chips! The kids love 'em... especially when paired with hummus. But there's only so much hummus you can eat, right? So I thought of combining their love for boiled eggs and cheese, to whip up a... Peppered Egg Mayo Dip. It's quick to make, filling and yes, kid … [Read more...]
Well today's World Nutella Day and National Pancake Day, two big favorite food groups (!!) in my household, so how could we not celebrate? This morning for breakfast, we rolled out the two, well kind of, into one dish, with my... Nutella Crepe-adillas These are basically good old fashion crepes, cut into quesadilla styled wedges, slathered with generous amounts of Nutella in between! 5.0 from 1 reviews … [Read more...]
I have to admit substituting butter and sugar has become a new obsession. Yes, there is a difference in taste but the healthier substitutes taste just as good, if not better, in some recipes. I'm still learning to tweak and figure out how to get crunchy cookies so I decided to just stick to making a tea cake. Nothing too sweet. Nothing too heavy. Just something to satisfy my sweet cravings... in a healthier … [Read more...]
My Mama makes the most refreshing salads in the whole wide world...erm so this is a tad bit of an exaggeration, but her salads are honestly yum! So the other day when we had guests coming over, I asked her for suggestions on what I could whip up on the salad front. She asked if I had lemons...check lettuce...check greens...check (I actually had a pretty neat assortment off greens that … [Read more...]
Last year on Valentine's Day, I made heart shaped pancakes. While thinking of what to add to this year's fare I knew it had to be something that the kids would love yet something this Mama would consider healthy and filling before a school day. After some trial and error and quite a bit of recipe merging and tweaking, hot out of the oven came a yummy... Berry Pecan bread. . A healthy, breakfast bread perfect for … [Read more...]
I know Indian food is considered a delicacy to many and eating at an Indian restaurant here in the U.S. does turn out to be expensive. But with a few essential ingredients in your pantry, you can bring Indian food off your stove and onto your family's table... and through this year, I hope to help you do just that with a few "Indian Soul Food with EBMommy" recipes! As a child, for birthdays, my Mama would ask if I wanted … [Read more...]
This past year has been a giant leap of faith for me in the culinary department. I began experimenting with new recipes. Was blessed with an awesome new oven and my best birthday gift ever-a KitchenAid Artisan mixer. I also ventured into the unthinkable... my first ever cooking competition that resulted in a cook-off, which, by God's Grace, I won. It has been a fun year and I honestly wish I'd shared more of … [Read more...]
