Today I’m bringing you an Oh, Honestly first: I’m combining my #ONENEWFOOD and Keeping It Real Challenge posts because… well, because trying our one new food this week was most definitely a Keeping It Real moment. Kristen and I promised you that we’d share healthy recipes each week to go along with our #ONENEWFOOD and […]
#ONENEWFOOD: Ultragrain with Quinoa Penne
My kids love pasta with meat sauce. It’s one of the few meals I make that I know they will eat, even if they’ve had a snack five minutes before dinner (which I never, ever allow because that would be foolish…. insert guilty cough). So when Hodgson Mill sent me an awesome care package after […]
#ONENEWFOOD: Quick Vanilla Ice Cream
Before I get into our #ONENEWFOOD of the week, I have to tell you this: The other night Annelise, my pickiest eater, willingly tried broccoli, rice, and chicken. That was HUGE for her. I absolutely attribute it to #ONENEWFOOD. Insisting that the kids try new things on a regular, consistant basis is paying off. Please […]
#ONENEWFOOD: Soup
I love soup. Chicken noodle, cream of broccoli, even tomato (if I have a grilled cheese to go with it!). There’s just something comforting about it, especially as the days grow cooler. My kids, however, don’t share this sentiment with me. I don’t know how it started, but for some reason, every time I make […]
#ONENEWFOOD: Homemade Oatmeal
Before I get into our one new food of the week, I want to take a moment to recognize Jennifer Tyler Lee. Kristen and I were introduced to her and her 52 New Foods Challenge this week and were surprised when we saw how similar it is to what we’ve been doing. She has a […]
#ONENEWFOOD: French Fries
We’ve been at this #ONENEWFOOD challenge for five weeks now and Kristen and I want to give you the most bang for your proverbial buck. From now on, our posts will not only include what food we tried and whether it was a success or not, but also links to healthy recipes and tips to […]
#ONENEWFOOD: Flaxseed
After last week’s #ONENEWFOOD success with the whole wheat flour, I decided to stay on the same track, but up my game. Enter: Flaxseed Honestly, I knew nothing about flaxseed, but I saw it on the shelf at Walmart and thought it must be healthy because of all the other things around it (great way […]
#ONENEWFOOD: Whole Wheat Flour
Last week Kristen and I both had mixed results with our #ONENEWFOODs. She tried snow peas and I tried both kale chips and raspberries. The snow peas and the kale chips did not fare well. The raspberries had mixed success. This week I needed a win, so I went back to basics. I wouldn’t exactly […]
#ONENEWFOOD: Kale Chips and Raspberries
#ONENEWFOOD with Mommy in Sports and Oh, Honestly! Kale Chips and Raspberries Last week, several people said their kids love kale chips, so of course we had to try them. As soon as I pulled them out of the oven, the only thing I could think was, “There’s no freaking way.” I was right. The […]
#ONENEWFOOD- Kiwi
Kristen and I are so excited by the response we got last week regarding #ONENEWFOOD. A lot of you expressed interest in joining us and we say “The more the merrier!” Why? Because: Everyone who does this is making a commitment to their family’s health and that is AWESOME! The more people who do it, […]
