These are fresh out of the oven yummy!
i invented these because my son refuses to eat breakfast these days. I don't like sending him to school with just milk in his tummy and since he is the live equivalent of Cookie Monster I decided to try out these super-simple all-natural breakfast cookies for him. Ingredients: (Makes 13 cookies) 4 large carrots 300g oat flour 3 tablespoons honey 2 tablespoons stevia 1/4 spoon cinammon 4 eggs 2 handful of raisins Peel the carrots and steam them until soft. Mash the carrots and add all other ingredients, mixing well until you reach an even mixture. Portion into 13 cookies onto a bake tray. Cook for 1 hour until lightly brown and then leave to cool for 10 minutes.

This is me buying my weekly fruit and veg at the fruitmongers. I live in Argentina and we still have those wonderful traditional stores like fruitmongers where I can get my organic fruit and veggies. I have a beautiful threenager, a headstrong two year old son and a five month old baby girl.
I have always been health conscious however after having kids I started paying closer attention to the food we eat as a family, and the deeper I delved the more horrified I became by what is considered "normal" food. I live by the philiosophy "you are what you eat", and with childhood cancer higher than it's ever been I have to ask myself whether societies way of eating is to blame? If my kids were to get sick, I, as every other mom would ask myself "How could I let this happen?", so I began changing the way I feed them, with the prayer that at least I can help build their bodies with nutritious ingredients which will keep them healthy. For me that means NO sugar, NO refined ingredients, NO chemicals I can't pronounce the name of, and NO processed or ready made food. I make everything from scratch so I know what goes into their mouths. Then comes the next challenge - my daughter eats most things but my son will just look at something and if it looks like "it's not supposed to taste good", he will just spit it out - he won't even give a veggie a chance! So I began creating creative recipes with "hidden" fruits and veggie themes, and to my delight my entire family, my extended family and our friends absolutely loved my recipes! So I decided to share my recipes via this website and blog, in the hope that other moms can make eating healthy a little more fun for themselves and their families. |
