"So when I do Chinese cooking, I mix everything together, then the kids have to eat their vegetables. They won't have the patience to pick them out"

Ratatouille with Aubergine and Pork meatballs and gemilli. I’m having a vegetable stand off with my daughter right now that’s terribly frustrating and sometimes ends in tears (often mine). It can be almost impossible to ensure her 5 a day minimum as she will only 4 (apples, cucumber, broccoli- carrot at a push). Thank God she eats pretty much anything if it’s in a tomato sauce..I’ve been making…

If you only knew that juicing is what started all this. Because we started giving him green juices with vegetables and fruits he got rid of the idea that green foods or drinks taste nasty, his taste buds changed and he started to love vegetables. Greens are crucial to our children's growth and development so make sure to get those veggies in your kids meals or drinks. Green is life. 🥑🍈🍏🍋🥝🥒 #healthykids #fitkids #kidsofinstagram #healthykidsofinstagram #healthykidshappykids #healthyfamily #healthykidswed #healthylifestyle #instakids #instahealth #healthyrecipes l #healthylife #healthymom #healthyfamily #healthblogger #instahealth #vegetariankids #kidsfood #kidseathealthy #kidsloveveggies #healthyliving #healthydinner

O.G. Patties: Flavorful Finger Food

I make these patties for my client and her son. Mostly her son. He loves them, I love them and I think everyone that tried them loved them to. So i want to share them with you!  They are a great finger food for kids and adults. 

I have to admit that I don’t often think about food for kids because I don’t have kids and because I think kids need to be trained and taught how to eat. Kids eat what their parents eat. For very young children the food just needs to be adjusted for salt, spiciness and texture that is easy to swallow other than that there is no such thing “food for children”. I kind of love the fact that my client just set the example of eating mostly a plant based diet for the health of her son and now that he is old enough to eat solid food she sets the example for him to eat plants and he loves it ! it’s really exciting to see a child ask and beg for more spinach. I do, however, understand that not every story and person is the same.... So here is a Veggie patty recipe that is filling, delicious and kid and mom approved. I think this patty is universally yummy and will please almost anyone!  

2 Carrots

2 Potatoes

1 - 5oz bag of spinach

1/2 onion 1 red bell pepper

½ cup of quiona

¼ cup of Oats

1 tablespoon of chia seeds (optional)

2 Flax Eggs( 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds 3 tablespoons of water for each flax egg. Add 2 more table spoons of water if you include chia seeds)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Start by peeling the potatoes and cutting them into 1.5 inch – 2inch squares. Put the potato squares into a pot of boiling water and cook covered. Cook the potatoes until they are soft and easy to break.

Cook Quinoa according to package instructions.

Then soak flax and chia seeds in the water to make a Flax Egg. It should tale about 20 mins for the water soluble part of the flax to absorb the water and have an egg like texture.

While the flax/chia is soaking, chop onions and bell peppers small dice (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCGS067s0zo) ,

Heat olive oil or grapeseed oil in a pan on medium high heat. Once pan is hot add onions and peppers let them cook until onions are mostly translucent then stir in spinach and cook until onions are translucent and spinach is wilted. Salt and pepper this mixture to taste.

Grate carrots

Put the bell pepper onion spinach mixture in a bowl oats, grated carrots, quinoa, potatoes, flax egg and the rest of the ingredients and mix well with hands or in a food processor.

Salt and pepper this mixture to taste.

Get a baking sheet or make one with several layers of foil paper  spray with a non-stick cooking spray

Form mixture into sticks( think fish fingers or chicken tender shape) or 2-3 inch wide patties( like mini burgers/sliders). Place patties on sprayed baking sheet and cook for 20 minutes until the patty forms and hold together.  Depending on your oven you may need more time. Flip them half way though cooking to ensure both sides get a nice crust and that the patties hold there shape.

 Enjoy!!!!!

Stay tuned for my mac & cheese recipe coming soon!!!!!!!!

Best, tastiest 5 veg supper ever. If the youngsters will not eat the veg, at the very least they’re going to get fibre from the wedges and flatbread 😁😁 Leftover roast cauli from yesterday and a great deal of different roasted stuff, pores and skin on wedges, parsnips (I’ve eaten my body weight in parsnips this winter.. the husband has a factor for them) courgettes and carrot. All crunchy,…

Cheese & Courgette Scones.

Just for you @lovelyramekins jeez i really need a website for recipes eh @nemonolio ? 😂

Another bonne idée for packed lunch boxes too.

Things to remember about scones:

🥒 they need to hot hot oven for max rise

🥒 don’t roll dough too thinly 3 to 4cm is good

🥒 don’t overwork dough

🥒 you can freestyle with cheeses, sweetcorn, sun dried tomatoes, olives

🥒 if you can’t be…

At last, I’ve made @melizcooks one tray potatoes and stuffed aubergines.. omg how delicious. Sadly I could not find pul biber anywhere near me.. or Aleppo pepper, but it’s on order. Check out her recipe. It’s a really easy and actually low on labour. The veg is chopped large.. takes minutes. It is delicious and moreish and the only bad part was there’s not enough for tomorrow. Gutted.

5 ways with Bolognese…

No prizes for originality here but how can millions of children be wrong?

I was reading an @adinasteiman @foodandwine article about Marcella Hazan’s best recipes and I’m pretty chuffed to report that her Bolognese is my bolognese. Onions, carrots, celery. Minced beef. Salt. Milk. Wine. Tomatoes. 3 hours. Simplicity itself.. like all good food should be.

But if you want…

Back to school soon and these babies are perfect for lunch boxes.

So. How to make muffins healthier; a few ideas:

🧁Use half the amount of sugar stated in the recipe (it will work. It won’t work in cookies)

🧁Use wholemeal flour instead of white, or a mixture of both

🧁Add grated carrot/squash/beetroot. They won’t know it’s there and…
