Healthy Pasta Salad - Khane Ki Shurwaat Sehatmand DelMonte Pasta Salad Ke Saath.
Comments (0) | Tuesday, 18 August 2015
DelMonte is a very well known brand and they sell a wide range of food products like different types of canned fruits and a wide variety of pastas. I received a sample pack of DelMonte Penne Pasta and I decided to make a very healthy and colorful pasta salad. This is a dish which is very close to me because I started making it from my daughter's first birthday party and it's always been a hit in all my get togethers. I usually serve it with corn chips and it gets over in no time. I usually use different pretty shaped pastas for this but today I decided to use the Penne Pasta. Hope you like it.

Eggless Banana Muffin / Eggless Banana Bread / Eggless Muffin
Comments (1) |
My daughter just loves the word "muffin" and the look of it and the smell of it as well. She loves this word because of the "muffin man" rhyme. She does not like to eat it that much yet though. She is 2.5 years old now. However , to my surprise she liked these muffins. She hated the chunks of pecans but liked the muffin as such. So from next time onwards, I thought of making them so there are no chunks to bite into. My husband loved it too. There was left over batter which I poured into bread pan and it came out great too. It looked like bread but it was a banana bread. Absolutely fantastic. Must try.

This Nutty Flaxseed Energy Bites are indeed an extremely healthy energy bite for kids and for adults as well. I have used peanut butter and honey instead of sugar. I have also used flaxseed, nuts and cardamom. You could anything available in your kitchen and make these energy bites for your kids. If your child eats one bite per day, it will be a great addition to their health.
Initially, my daughter didn't like it because the flaxseed seem to over-power but after a few weeks, she did seem to like it. So please do try it and let me know your experiences. Thank you for reading.

Homemade Baked Crispy Kale Chips for Kids
Comments (0) | Friday, 27 March 2015
Kale is an extremely healthy green leafy vegetable. It is high in Vitamin C and calcium along with others. To my knowledge it is the only leafy vegetable that can be baked in the oven and still be super crispy. So, I figured, the best way to make my daughter eat Kale is to make chips out of it. It is so easy to make this recipe, I can't stress enough. Please try this and hope your kids love it too.
