I can’t remember when I saw this tip, but it has been one of the best tips I’ve ever received!

This snack can make you feel great about what you’re giving your kiddos, it’s healthy, tastes good, it’s quick and easy, buys you time, and it’s fantastic for little ones, especially those who are teething.

This is a quick snack that has been my go-to whenever the kiddos are hungry, I need a distraction while the rest of dinner is getting finished, or I want something that they can eat on their own without making a huge mess.

Frozen peas were my go-to when the kiddos were younger and even my picky eater step-daughter like them! Seriously, give them a try frozen – you will be shocked at how much sweeter they taste than when cooked!

We like these organic peas from Aldi and I try to make sure they are fresh and don’t have time to get all frosty – like the ones pictured, I dug those out of the bottom of the freezer.
