Byron Bay Muesli Balls and a Giveaway!

Byron Bay Muesli Balls Muesli is the only cereal I will buy for my family now. Anything else you buy in a box is pretty much rubbish.  It makes a great base for quick snacks for the kids. I am loving these Byron Bay Muesli Balls. So quick and easy! Okay, so this is what you need: 2 cups roasted Byron Bay Macadamia Muesli 1 cup organic (sulphur free) apricots 1/4 cup honey 60 grams butter (or use coconut oil for a dairy free option) 1/3 cup desiccated or shredded coconut Okay, so this is how you do it: Place...

What are the best packet snacks for kids?

  I get asked this question a lot! Now, I am no expert, but what I have done is find some packaged snacks at the supermarket that I would feel okay about feeding my kids occasionally. They aren’t all necessarily super-nutritious, but I think they are superior to the majority of packaged snacks out there. We all know that fresh and homemade snacks are best for kids. If you are in the supermarket, grab a piece of fruit, a punnet of cherry tomatoes, some baby qukes, some plain organic nuts or organic...

Aribar : Day 4 of Giveaway-A-Day

Today’s giveaway is one you can really sink your teeth into. (Sorry, couldn’t resist!) The lovely people at Artisse Organic sent me some samples of their Aribars to try out on my cherubs last week. Artisse Organic are the same people who brought us Little Bellies organic snacks (which I reviewed a while back). It’s not always possible to make home-made snacks for our kids from scratch (if only life was that perfect!).  I think these bars are great as a backup plan or for a treat. There is so...

Five Favourite Things – July

July. Winter. Snuggling. Comfort food. Hibernating. Trying to find the sun. Here are some things that I have been in love with this month. ♥ Wendy Blume’s amazing “Breakfast on the go biscuits” recipe from the Vegie Smugglers 2 cookbook. This recipe has two ingredients – cereal and egg white (I don’t use the sugar). It is super quick and easy to make and it doubles as a great kid’s snacks or breakfast in the car for those mental mornings! I use Freedom Foods Ancient Grains...

Little Bellies – Organic Snacks Review and Giveaway

In a perfect world, our kids would eat fresh, organic, unprocessed foods, lovingly prepared by us, 100% of the time! Yes, well, back to reality! I was pretty happy to find out about Little Bellies and lucky enough to sample their new range a little while ago. They give us health-conscious mums an option of good quality kid’s snacks on those crazy days, when homemade is just not going to happen.  Over the course of a couple of weeks, my Natural New Age Kids tried all the products (I had a nibble too). The...
