The sandwiches can be made 4 hours ahead and wrapped well with plastic wrap and refrigerate. You Will Need: 1/8 cup extra virgin olive oil 2 to 3 small Japanese […]
I found this unusual, delicious, sweet and spicy, harvest-like whole cauliflower recipe on the instantpoteats web site. I skipped the breadcrumbs and broiled the glaze on the cauliflower for the last 10 minutes of cooking the vegetable. Sprinkling the vegetable with dried cranberries and pumpkin seeds makes it perfect for Thanksgiving dinner or any autumn […]
This is a delicious Vegan Teriyaki “Chicken” Stir-Fry that’s meat-free, plant-based, and made with tofu and vegetables. Start with a frozen block of tofu. Freezing the tofu will yield a much chewier texture. Additionally, you’ll be able to get more of the water out of the tofu. This is an easy and healthy dish to […]

You can easily double and triple the recipe if making for […]
All children love pizza! These Cauliflower Steaks with Marinara are like a light and tasty take on pizza that I found on the cooktoria web site. Always allow the children to help you prepare the foods you cook for them. My Nanny Kids love spreading the marinara sauce and sprinkling the cheese onto the cauliflower […]
It’s a challenge getting many children to eat vegetables. But I only added fruits and vegetables that the children in my care like to this salad and the children gobbled it up. The key is to offer small amounts of new vegetable dishes with other foods the children like without forcing them to eat new […]
A father I worked for said when children won’t eat vegetables just add cheese or bread crumbs to the vegetables and the kids will eat them. I did both with these baked Parmesan zucchini fries. They are yummy and simple to make. To make them extra crispy, use the broiler at the end of baking […]
