muffin tin munchies

Addi has just become such a picky eater lately and it is so incredibly frustrating! (I know my mother is just loving this!) In an effort to be creative with her meals, I started googling ideas and combing through blogs. I came across this idea and thought it was just genius! All of those goodies look much more appetizing than in that cute heart mold. I just happened to have that already, but now I'm on the hunt for some good bargains! Let me know if you find anything cute out there!!


Addi still didn't eat everything on her tray, but she had a great time rearranging her food.

(Cheerios, Chex, Craisins, apples, cheddar cheese, peas & carrots, blueberries, peas & carrots, ham, ham cheddar cheese and blueberries)





I also made Addi some apple sauce and she really loved it.  Enjoy!


Chunky Apple Sauce

Ingredients:
2 c. apples, cored, peeled and cubed
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/4 c. water

Directions:
Mix ingredients together in a microwave safe bowl.  Add water, stirring gently. Cover and microwave for 7 minutes, stirring every 1 to 2 minutes.

This idea originally came from Dr. William Sears- pediatrician, author of tons of parenting books. He also endorses Juice Plus- a whole food supplement. Kiddos love it because they are gummy like a fruit snack and taste yummy!! Let me know if you ever want more info- good stuff!! www.paigethomas.com

1.Have you met Addi's father? Of course she is a picky eater! The man doesn't even like chocolate!! Sinful, I tell you!

2. Did you try telling her that raisins are candy? That seemed to work on you. ;)

3. I would like to know if Addi would let me borrow this tray. I hate my food touching so this might just work for me.
