Peas make a great first baby food. This is an easy recipe that's great for busy moms and dads to make ahead and freeze. This can be used with other first foods for your baby. Apples or pears are fun or even green beans. Make sure it is mild enough for your baby's developing digestive system.

Whole Grain Breakfast Cookies Recipe
My sister and I love something sweet with our coffee in the morning. We created this cookie recipe to make a wholesome breakfast. I generally double the batch and keep them in the freezer. They taste even better frozen (still soft!). Whole grains, fiber, and protein, and no butter! Can it really be delicious? Yes! My kids can't keep their fingers out of the batter. I decided to add it to Allrecipes because everyone keeps asking me for the recipe. Enjoy!
Minnie Mouse Cupcakes
Vanilla Oreo cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. These were a huge hit with the kids and tasted so good. They were so much better than using a packaged cake mix. The cream cheese frosting went really well with the Oreos. As the birthday cake lady, this is now my go-to cream cheese frosting, and I will never buy a box cake mix again.
Grilled Chicken Burgers
Try these grilled chicken burgers for a nice break from typical beef hamburgers. They're fairly simple to make, full of flavor, and quite delicious. I serve them on chive biscuits with tomato chutney. Eat to your heart's content!
