How to eat healthier with one easy change

A Better Life Lived Posted on July 24 by About KiraFebruary 12
How to eat healthier with one easy change. Such a simple solution to get more variety and nutrition!

If you’re anything like me, you’re always looking for a simple idea for how to eat healthier. I seriously struggle so much with this. My diet kind of sucks, to be honest. I have a killer sweet tooth and chips call to me like a siren to a ship at sea. So I’m constantly trying new foods or trying to incorporate healthier foods into my diet more. And it is really hard sometimes. This post contains affiliate links.

10 Healthy Toddler Approved Snacks for the Whole Family!

Healthy, toddler approved snacks for the whole family!

Here we are at our final day of toddler approved meals! Today isn’t about actual “meals” but rather healthy, toddler approved snacks. Since we’re always on the go, snacks are a critical part of our day. Little toddler bellies don’t always hold very much and the several hours between meals is just too long for them. As such, we always have snacks on hand for him while we’re out and about. Snacks aren’t just important for him. Since we’re trying to eat healthier, stopping for snacks or fast food is just not a good option. In addition to the health factor, it’s much more costly to stop for snacks. So I like to always try to make sure I have … More…

10 Healthy Toddler Approved Breakfast for the Whole Family!

healthy toddler approved breakfasts for the whole family!

On to round three of healthy, toddler approved meals! So far we’ve covered dinner and lunch. While those are definitely the more complicated meals, finding a toddler approved breakfast can sometimes be a challenge too. Eggs are pretty much my go-to breakfast food for myself and it works for Zach, too. Still, I felt like I needed to expand his horizons. I want him to continue to be adventurous with food and willing to try new things. If I don’t continue offering up new options, he’ll lose that willingness to try. Breakfast is difficult in its own right because there is a small group of foods that are generally thought of as breakfast. Toast, eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, oatmeal. That pretty … More…

10 Healthy Toddler Approved Lunch Meals for the Whole Family!

healthy toddler approved lunches for the whole family!

Welcome back! It’s time for round two of healthy, toddler approved meals. Yesterday was all about dinner. Today we’re going to talk toddler approved lunch. I don’t know about you, but when I’m home with Zachary or packing lunch for work, we never eat the same thing. I prepare a bunch of stuff in advance for him and then scarf something down myself. Usually, I don’t eat until after he’s done. That way, I can use the time while he’s eating to do some quick dishes or other tasks in the kitchen. More often than not, it’s some kind of sandwich, salad or frozen pizza, none of which he can have. Sometimes, I only grab a handful of crackers or … More…

10 Healthy Toddler Approved Dinner Meals for the Whole Family!

A Better Life Lived Posted on September 27 by About KiraSeptember 20
healthy toddler approved dinners for the whole family!

Having a toddler is difficult; they’re messy, chaotic, super-active, fussy, and picky. This is especially true at meal time. It’s hard enough making sure that the food winds up in their mouths and not on the floor, in their hair, or fed to the dog. But it’s even harder to make two separate meals; one for them and one for the older members of the family. And finding toddler approved dinner, lunch, or breakfast can be a challenge for sure. That’s why this series is going to go over some of our favorite toddler approved meals, and we’re starting with dinner! It’s time to eat together! In our house, we make sure that we create healthy, meals that the entire … More…
