  • No milk? No eggs? No problem! ๐Ÿฆธโ€โ™€๏ธโฃ โฃ Finding ingredients out there in the grocery store can be tough. Sure you can buy as many frozen Hawaiian Pizzas ๐Ÿ• as you want (team pineapple here, you?) but milk and eggs have been tricky sometimes. Itโ€™s the end of the week too, and thatโ€™s when we start to run low and the bananas ๐ŸŒ, are starting to look a little brown. โฃ โฃ My mini banana applesauce chocolate chip muffins have no eggs, no milk and just the right amount of sweetness! Iโ€™ve had more then a few fans cheering and sharing their pictures of their muffins with me lately, and today Iโ€™m sharing them in stories! Gooey and delicious, one reader even substituted almond flour and made them low carb.โฃ If you make them. Tag me too! โฃ If you want the recipe too, check out the link in my bio ๐ŸŒ ๐Ÿซ @onmykidsplateโฃ โฃ So whatโ€™s the grocery sich around you?

  • Staying at home doesnโ€™t mean you canโ€™t have some fun! How are you and your family doing lately? ๐Ÿค— โฃ โฃ We decided to have a game night with my parents over FaceTime and made a few fun snacky snacks including these yummy mozzarella sticks in our @officialpowerxl air fryer. You can check out this recipe in my bio ๐Ÿง€ @onmykidsplate. โฃ๐Ÿ™Œ โฃ These gooey homemade mozzarella sticks require a little pre-prep the day before, but then they cook up fast when itโ€™s time to play and are sooooo good! โฃ Also of the games we played? @uno worked really well over FaceTime. How have you been able to have a little fun as a family? Puzzles? Games? Baking? Drive by parades? #onmykidsplate #quarantinelife #airfryerrecipes #airfryer #airfryeverthing
  • Double tap if youโ€™re in for a cozy lunch or dinner. . This ham and potato soup has pretty much been all my kid has wanted in the last week or so outside of toast and snacky things. I really canโ€™t blame her, itโ€™s so cozy and warm and it just might ruin you for potato soup elsewhere. Want the recipe? You can find it in the link in my bio ๐Ÿฅฐ @onmykidsplate . Kid Tip: One of my favorite ways to cool down soup is to give my kid a handful of frozen peas to mix in at the table. *cools the soup down fast to make it easier to eat *adds an โ€œactivityโ€ to soup *keeps the peas looking bright green *adds a veggie . Have you tried this idea with the peas? Have a great soup tip too? Tell me about it down in the comments! #onmykidsplate #soupseason #soupson
  • Anyone else love snacks that do double duty? Salty, sweet and totally snackable for any day of the week! (ad) . Trail mix is on my list for both everyday snacks and parties. I've put together three different school safe mixes you can make including these yummy Sour Raisins from @sunmaid These raisins add such a yummy little punch of flavor to my trail mixes which my kid named: Very Berry Chocolate, The Tropical One and Yogurt Covered Strawberry! . Check out the link in my bio @onmykidsplate to get the recipes plus a list of over 15 mix-in ideas. . Pssst! If you have a kid who is all about sweet and sour candies? These Sour Raisins are a great swap with a taste that is sour and sweet together but without dyes, gluten or added sugar. Throw a pack right in your bag to have a great whole fruit snack on the fly. . Which trail mix would you go for first? Very Berry Chocolate, The Tropical One or Yogurt Covered Strawberry? . @walmart #sunmaidsours #walmart #sunmaid #imaginethat #onmykidsplate #kidsparty #snacksforkids #snacks #kidsfood #snackattack #kidsinthekitchen
