Homemade Blueberry Apple Fruit Leather

June 23, 2015 By Natasha Red Leave a Comment

Now that my little girl is a toddler, I’ve gotten really into creating fun and healthy treats for her. As a mom who loves healthy food, I’m trying to teach my daughter to enjoy a treat that is both enjoyable and nutritious for her.

It brings me so much joy to create fun food that she enjoys…from  gummy snacks, to smoothies, to fruit leather. She gobbles up this slightly tangy, sweet and chewy homemade fruit leather.

Think the old school fruit roll-ups you used to snack on as a kid, but so much healthier. I wrap these up in parchment paper and keep them in plastic baggies for quick snacks throughout the week.

Natasha here! If you follow my blog at all, you know that I love eating seasonally. It’s something I have been growing in the more I learn about food. It’s hard to tell what’s in season when shopping at the local grocery stores, so I like to do a little internet research to find out or pop by our Saturday Farmer’s Market in town to see what’s out!

Apple Spice Muffins

There’s something about a warm muffin with a pat of fresh butter and a cup of hot tea in the morning. It’s what greets me most mornings as I roll out of bed before the sun rises, searching for something to soothe my dry throat from the allergies that come along with Spring.

For our family, these muffins are the perfect breakfast and snack, and usually last all of 24 hours.

They have a slight spice from cinnamon and all spice and the familiar sweetness of gala apples. I love the chunks of apple bites that keep the muffins moist but add a crunch as well. My 1-year-old gobbles them up!

Leftover Turkey Cranberry Sandwich

December 27, 2014 By Erica Acevedo Leave a Comment

A sweet and savory way to use your leftover turkey! If it doesn’t happen to be anywhere near a turkey holiday, then smoked chicken is a wonderful substitute!

Leftover Turkey Cranberry Sandwich

The final week of a year is always full of ups and downs for me.

The excitement of New Year’s Eve and a fresh start are exhilarating, and the instant reduction of stress after Christmas is over is one of the best feelings I could ask for.
