/having a little fun with healthy breakfasts these days! it's whatever works and gets Chiso's plate clean, and these have proven to do just that. he thinks it's hilarious (telling a funny story along with it helps too) and i enjoy creating them. just some ideas for your picky eater(s) fueled by Pinterest.
banana bear faces using Sara Lee whole wheat bread, natural peanut butter, and chocolate chips.
the original 'recipe' actually used blueberries for the eyes and nose, but they were a no-go.
this morning we had whole wheat pancakes and i'd love to share this easy recipe with ya as promised.
