Mini-Meatballs PDF Print E-mail
Feeding Toddlers
Written by Jen Lane   

Mini-meatballs are one of those perfect foods for toddlers.  They are bite-sized, tasty and packed with nutrition, not to mention the fact that they taste great in so many combinations.  I keep a batch in my freezer at all times for quick weekday lunches, dinners on nights when my son hates what my husband and I are having or as add-ins to other dishes.

Written by Jen Lane   
If you read a lot of cake, cookie or muffin recipes, you've probably seen applesauce listed as an ingredient.  This tasty spice cake recipe calls for either applesauce or plum baby food, but you could easily substitute whatever flavor suits your family's taste.  (Pear would be delicious!)  The result is a moist, sweet cake that your toddler will love.

Tea Cakes: A Not-Too-Sweet Treat! PDF Print E-mail
Feeding Toddlers
Written by Jen Lane   
One of my strongest memories of my great-grandmother is her tea cakes.  These treats are like a not-too-sweet sugar cookie with a cakier texture.  I remember some family members dunking them in their coffee while others spread them with homemade jelly.  I'm a purist--I gobbled them down in their perfect, original form.  Tea cakes make a great holiday treat for toddlers, especially those who aren't nuts about super-sweet cookies.

Sweet Potato Casserole may be the perfect food.  The texture and color are pleasing, it satisfies your sweet tooth, it fills you up, it's packed with vitamins and it's appropriate for all ages.  In my family, no holiday dinner is complete without a big dish or two of this casserole.  Your toddler will love this recipe and may even surprise you by asking for seconds...or thirds!

Nothing warms the body and soul on a chilly autumn night like a warm bowl of soup.  Some toddlers are immediately enamoured with  the likes of chicken noodle soup or soups with alphabet-shaped pasta.  However, fall brings us some tasty veggies which can be made into spectacular, toddler-friendly soups that taste great and a splash of seasonal color and flavor to your dinner table.

Written by Jen Lane   
My son recently started attending Mother's Day Out (or "Big Boy School" as we refer to it) three days a week while I'm at work.  So far my biggest challenge has been figuring out what to pack in the lunchbox of a kid who doesn't eat sandwiches.

My house has been hit with the dreaded summer cold.  When I'm sick, all I want to eat is gelatin and hot tea.  Given the fact that I could stand to lose a few pounds, this is an acceptable diet for a day or two.  But what do you feed a toddler who is under-the-weather, but who still needs good nutrition?  Here are a few things that have gotten me through our latest bout of sickness.
