My spaghettis have always been boring. I hardly ever made spaghetti Bolognese, because I must admit that I am lazy cooking. So when I started my Plant based diet journey I just did plain spaghettis with passata as tomato sauce. And my kids loved it. It was easy and they would eat it. Even my…

I battled to feed my daughter following a starch based diet. My son is good and he would eat most things, but they never like my cakes. My daughter would eat my banana chocolate cake, only if I do it in a muffin form and if I add chocolate chips. My son would also eat…

One thing that my children do not want to give up is butter. I used vegan butters, but they do have oils, so they are not very halthy. And they eat butter sandwiches every day. Yes just plain butter sandwiches. I tried to replace it with hummus, but they did not like it. My son…

The problem I have is that my children do not like trying everything. My daughter presents a real challenge when it comes to food. We sat last night with her supper in front of her, for two hours, and she would not eat it. I really believe it is not a matter of taste but…
