Introduction


  • Hi everyone
    I’m so happy to be back. I’ve been absolutely terrible at eating during the past few months and this couldn’t have come at a better time for me. Really looking forward to a bit of discipline and something to hold myself accountable. Looking forward to getting into the recipes and finding some new family favorites. My daughter is a wonderful baker so I’m going to be asking her to start baking off of this healthier list instead. Super excited for the next few weeks and seeing the results.
    Hope everyone is staying sane and safe!

  • Thanks! My younger kiddo is a very fussy eater so it’s really hard with her. I end up just making a separate meal for her as the arguments were making dinner time not very pleasant for any of us. I’ll have a look at the kid-friendly meals to see if any of it is realistic.

  • Hi again, Tracy! I hear you on not wanting an argument at dinner time. We’ve had lots of parents-of-picky-eaters in P20 in the past, and while each child is so different…here are a some ideas:
    1) Add cauliflower rice to white rice (mix together and drizzle with olive oil or butter) along with any protein for dinner – one meal that the entire family may enjoy?
    2) The honey dijon chicken one sheet pan dinner is often a hit
    3) The go-to chicken is often a crowd pleaser too
    4) Smoothies – an easy way to sneak in veggies (frozen cauliflower and zucchini are nearly flavorless when added to fruit)
    5) The Banana Bread and Collagen N’ice cream are usually super kid-friendly
    Happy to send more ideas if you find them helpful! xx

  • thanks so much! This is really helpful. I’ll make a start on these and see how I get on. She loves fruit smoothies so I’ll see if I can convince her to add Cauliflower. She’s 13 so I’m not sneaking anything anymore and most of her issues is with both taste and texture of the food.
