Filled with healthy ingredients like brewers yeast, oatmeal, quinoa, flaxseed, and pumpkin seeds, some of the best foods for breastfeeding!

The perfect Breakfast, Vegan Chocolate Chip Pancakes Recipe is sure to please the entire family.  

This week both of my girls have been sick, and my youngest is teething, too.  Apparently, my four-year old is old enough to have developed comfort foods, so when I ask her what she would like for breakfast, she replies, “Umm, pancakes, I think.”  Pancakes = special attention and love when she is sick.

Now, most of what I cook is vegan, so we can’t do frozen pancakes, and we choose not to use Bisquick mix for pancakes.  (We could totally veganize a Bisquick pancake recipe, but I’m not in favor of the white flour and trans-fats. However, I’m not completely knocking it, I grew up on Bisquick and could probably still whip up a coffee cake pretty quickly.)

It’s a cookie, it’s a scone, it’s Chocolate Chip Scone, Cookies!

I like scones, Kay likes cookies.  So I made a combination of the two and we’re both happy!  When we went to the Gluten and Allergen Free Expo at the beginning of the month we found a few chocolate brands that don’t contain soy.  We typically used Enjoy Life Foods whenever we made chocolate chip cookies, but this time we tried PASCHA chocolate this time.  PASCHA is free of the top allergens.  I fell in love with the coffee chocolate bar I bought at the expo.   Since Kay was diagnosed with FPIES we’ve found so many amazing products and options.

Before you know it the holiday season is here, and before you know it, it’s all over too!  You’ll ache from eating to much, then want something sweet again too!  Sweet Baby and I have the perfect fix for both of those problems with this cute craft we’re sharing!  I’ve been racking my brain on […]
