Baby Feeder A baby feeder is made up of an easy-hold handle and a little pouch with lots of holes. The idea is that the holes allow some of the flavor and texture of the food to come out, without the concerns that may come with larger pieces of food. This means you can worry less when it comes to choking risks. One thing to keep in mind: They don’t allow babies to have the full texture experience of the food—since the texture is mostly the mesh of the feeder....
These cookies are so freaking good. Coconutty with hints of almond. A great chewy but delicate, melt-in-your mouth texture. The perfect level of sweetness. And dipped chocolatey perfection. A little trip to paradise with each cookie. They are accidentally gluten free, and magically vegan. Well, it’s not really magic. It just required a secret ingredient… A friend asked me about a week ago about making vegan macaroons for Passover. I first looked up my favorite (and previous to this, only) coconut macaroon recipe, only to realize they are nowhere near being Passover friendly!...
There’s something extremely satisfying about eating the pillowy soft dough of a steamed bun. Tender and moist in texture, yeasty and slightly sweet in flavor. I think it’s perfect when accompanied by a bold, savory filling (I’ve never been that into sweet versions, like red bean paste steamed buns). A lifelong vegetarian, my life has been largely devoid of savory steamed buns, as they are typically filled with meat. But in my dream life, I’d be eating steamed buns all the time (I mean, really, who wouldn’t be), so I knew I had to learn how to make them....
What makes gravy vegan? Gravy is often made with dairy butter and chicken or beef broths. Sometimes it also includes crumbled sausage or other meaty ingredient. There’s none of that in this shallot gravy, while still getting all the rich flavors! You can make this gravy with vegan butter or olive oil, my personal preference is for the vegan butter in this scenario, but olive oil has a great flavor too if that’s more your jam....
These cookie croissants are possibly the best French-American collaboration since Hamilton and Lafayette. If you haven’t yet seen the videos of folks biting into buttery, shatteringly crisp croissants stuffed with warm, molten cookie dough, let me enlighten you. The original “Crookie” was created at the Boulangerie Louvard in Paris and seems to have gone viral after being shared by TikTok’er Anna Kloots. Although if someone shared it earlier, please let me know!...

It’s a battered and fried cutlet stuffed into a corn tortilla, slathered with a creamy white sauce and crisp cabbage slaw....
I’m always trying to think of new ways to repurpose leftovers into easy meals. These nachos are made with leftover smoked pulled pork (or I have a slow cooker pulled pork recipe as well), although you could just as easily use leftover bbq chicken, ribs, shredded beef, or brisket. My first “real” job was as a server at a local Mexican restaurant in high school. Hands down my favorite thing on the menu were the loaded “ultimate nachos”....
Banana Yogurt Yogurt is one of my favorite foods for babies and toddlers since it’s packed with nutrients including protein, healthy fats, calcium and probiotics. And since I know first hand that some littles one like it plain more than others, having a few easy ways to add flavor to it can be super helpful. This Banana Yogurt has been a staple snack for my one year old…though I always have to make enough for my three year old too since she’s a fan as well!...
Flavored Milks Whether you’re looking to mix up the type of milk you offer as a way to add more nutrients and flavors, or as a way to help a little one learn to like milk, these homemade flavored milks can be great options. They’re so easy to make, require super simple ingredients, and have delicious—and less sweet—flavor. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, kids need 2-3 servings of dairy a day to help meet their calcium and vitamin D needs, and that may or may not include milk for toddlers....
We love savory breakfasts around here. Case in point? Eggs Benedict, Classic Homemade Biscuits and Gravy, and My Favorite Breakfast Burritos! I love breakfast foods. I may have mentioned this on the blog before, but my mom made her five kids hot breakfast almost every day when I was growing up. Saturday mornings were the only time we got to eat cereal, which we considered a treat. I’m not as good of a mom when it comes to homemade breakfasts every morning, but I still make hot breakfast 3-4 times a week for my girls....
It might be due to my love of beans, but I cannot think of a more satisfying bowl than these black bean burrito bowls! They’re chock full with all the goodies, my cilantro and cumin seasoned black beans, ancho roasted potatoes, lightly pan fried zucchini, plenty of avocado, short grain rice to tie it all together, and a generous drizzle of hot sauce (or your favorite salsa) to serve! My mouth is watering just thinking about it!...
