When my oldest son was 4 months old and began eating food I opened a box of Gerber Oatmeal. I remember thinking that it carried a strong resemblance to fish flakes. The texture was wrong and I knew from just looking at it that it was over processed. I knew that my baby shouldn’t eat it and that regular oatmeal would be fine, and it was! Please, don’t mistake me for shaming anyone has fed gerber products to their kids. But this is where my whole foods journey began.
I’ve dedicated much of my time in creating healthy recipes that my kids and hubby will love. Not only that, but healthy recipes can get complicated. I wanted to make simple recipes that taste good and were good for you. I also delve into the occasional treat because life doesn’t have to be all serious.
I also try to educate my kids on creating a healthy body. We have fun learning about food and cooking in the kitchen together. We are not perfect eaters by any means but we try to eat as balanced as we can.
