Super Light Breakfast
https://youtube.com/shorts/4U76GpdnlBw?feature=share
There are meals and side dishes that I remember as a child, and also loved to eat, but have forgotten to make them anymore. Soft boiled eggs are one that I used to have for breakfast, snacks, and a light meal when I wasn’t feeling well.
Easy to prepare, and easy to add more flavors to it with a dash of salt & pepper. Total preparation maybe 10 minutes after you drop the eggs in boiling water.
Easy & Healthy Recipe
Peanut butter & pear sandwich👍😋
This is a great breakfast sandwich and snack. I often make this sandwich and cut it in small pieces for mid day snack. The best pear for this sandwich is Bartlett pear. You need a juicy one so it will add more moisture to the peanut spread.
A slice or two of sour dough or your favorite bread, to top your sandwich, or an open face sandwich. Chunky or smooth peanut butter, and very thin slices of pear over lapping each slice on the peanut butter spread. That is it😋 simple, healthy, yummy.👍

Pantry Must Haves🥫
We usually think of our pantry as the place we store what we need for cooking on daily bases. I have come to realize these days, that my pantry should have everything I need to make meals for not just weeks but maybe months.
Believe me I don’t own a large pantry, so no room for a large varieties of food, but I have learned how to make meals that share the same basic ingredients. And with few more from the freezer, voila I have put together a nice meal.
To create a nice meal has always been important to me. I grew up in a household that eating healthy, and eating delicious meals took an entire day to prepare. Chopping vegetables, marinating the meat, making sauces, all were an important component of creating a delicious food, and setting a beautiful table.
So to keep stress out of my life I have grouped my basic pantry items in 4 categories:
1- cooking
2- baking
3- snacking
4- breakfast
Always store Salt, peppers, spices, cooking oils in large quantities since they are used in daily cooking. Canned sauces, and tomatoes, canned vegetables, soups, tuna, pickles, olives, and pastas are another must haves, with long expiration dates that are easy to buy for storing.
Take advantage of end of season sales for baking, canned vegetables, and pastas. And remember you can store most ingredients like butter, cooked pastas, cooked rice, and breads, for few weeks in your freezer.

Summer Salad with Watermelon
Best way to eat fruits & vegetables sometimes is to make a nice salad. I have found it to be easier to add flavor and excitement to our food and get our kids to eat more fresh and healthy food.
One summer fruit that I love to serve is watermelon. With 1200 varieties, it is sweet, juicy, full of nutrients, and easy to serve.
Thirst quenching watermelon has many benefits, with 92% water, drinking its juice is an important way to keep our body hydrated.
Low in calories only 46 calories per cup, it is a great recovery beverage after a workout, and packed with vitamins, that help with :
1- Lowering blood pressure
2- high in antioxidants – prevents cell damage
3- helps in preventing cancer
4- helps with inflammation
5- helps with muscle soreness
6- helps with healthy hair & skin
One of my favorite salads in summer is watermelon feta cheese salad. Served with mint, glaze balsamic vinegar, olive oil, is cool and refreshing and everyone’s favorite.
Watch the video on how I made this easy salad. Try it & enjoy it 👍😋🍉
Figs & mozzarella
We love mozzarella on our salad or on top of a heaping hot pasta dish, but for breakfast it is light & something fresh.
adding berries and walnuts just adds to this nutritious, easy to make breakfast. We all know about the benefits of berries eating walnuts help with lowering blood pressure, inflammation, helps with weight loss, and supports good brain function.
Healthy Brain diet, for Kids
We need to Avoid food that contain artificial sweeteners, foods that contain high amounts of sugar, saturated fat or caffeine.
Processed foods like deli meat have been linked to triggering ADHD symptoms in children. Instead choose foods that contain antioxidants, choline, omega-3 fatty acids, and complex carbohydrates that boost brain health.
Fruits & nuts for snacks
Apples
Pears
Oranges
Kiwi
To add Protein to a healthy diet :
beans, almonds, walnuts, Brazil nuts, multi grain cereal. Eggs, milk, goat cheese, and Greek yogurt.
Fish for omega 3 & fatty acid
Salmon, mackerel, fresh tuna, trout, sardines, herring.
Making tuna wraps, sandwiches and pasta salads for kids lunches is a great way to add good fat to their diet.
For salads, sandwiches, and wraps use Green leafy vegetables like spinach and kale. These greens are full of folate and vitamins .
