I was completely taken by this Easter breakfast recipe from the very first moment I laid eyes on it in a Dutch magazine. Not only because of the ingredients (noticed my puff pastry addiction as of late?), also not because it’s hardly any work (mainly oven time), incredibly simple yet it tastes fantastic. No, none of that. I like it an awful lot because I can let my little man help…
In my perennial search for the perfect smoothie, I stumbled upon this combination! Turns out to be the perfect breakfast. As much as I like the Tangerine Dream and Jayden’s Smoothie; I just need more fibres to get me through the morning. So I’ve added something I normally don’t care much for; muesli. Plain, unsweetened muesli (with dried fruit) works like a charm when combined with fresh fruit, yogurt…
Still on a major smoothie binge! Having fun trying to come up with new flavors. Kiddo and I really like ‘Jayden’s Smoothie‘, but lately I have another favorite as well.

But I’m also perfectly happy grabbing one of these babies on my way out the door and devour it in the car. Real healthy, huh! Must admit that when I add this much cheese and/or butter to a dish,…
When it comes to my kiddo’s eating habits, I really can’t complain. However, there’s one thing he absolutely dislikes. Fruit. Amazing, isn’t it? I thought kids took to fruit naturally? Guess not. Aside from apples and an occasional grape, he’ll simply refuse to eat any kind of fruit unless it’s mashed, blended or incorporated into something. Now for a short while I wasn’t even all too unhappy about that – this was…
New categories for me. I’m filing this under ‘kids‘ and ‘breakfast‘. Not because it’s a specific food for children, but because my baby loves to eat this (will I ever stop calling him my baby? I somehow doubt it). This is by far his favorite breakfast -not to mention he loves to ‘help‘ me cook it – which makes it a fun thing for the both of us. If he likes…
