Hip Homeschool Moms. A Vibrant Community for Homeschooling Families.
Are you looking for an easy breakfast or snack for your family? We moms are busy folks, and sometimes we just need to have something on hand for mornings when we’re headed out the door to play dates, co-op, sports, lessons, or other commitments! These muffins are perfect for making the day before and having…
Are you trying to eat whole foods or just eat healthier foods with natural ingredients and less sugar, dairy, and wheat? If so, make your own granola! You can eat it as a snack just like it is, or you can put it in a bowl with a little almond milk or coconut milk and eat it…
Since it’s the holidays, you probably have a party to attend or pot-luck dinner at your church. Or you may just be going to visit a friend or take a treat to a friend or relative. But if you prefer to eat “real food” instead of processed foods, it can be hard to decide what…
When fall rolls around after the blisteringly hot summers we have here in Texas, my mind turns to pumpkins. Pumpkins are a healthful vegetable, and they’re delicious too! They are low-calorie, and they contain no saturated fats or cholesterol. They’re full of fiber, antioxidants, minerals, and vitamins. So even though the recipes below are a…
I’m not a big breakfast planner, and it usually goes to the back of my mind when grocery shopping. I like to keep it simple and quick when it comes to breakfast. If I already keep the ingredients in the pantry and don’t have to buy extra, well then it’s a win all around. These…
Making your own cereal for breakfast is so very easy and so much healthier than most store bought options. It’s my guess it ends up being cheaper too! While you may invest a bit at first, the ingredients last quite a while and can usually make several batches of cereal over a few months time….
Summer is here, and one of my daughter’s favorite things to eat for breakfast or a snack during hot weather is a Ballerina Smoothie. She loves them, and so do I! And because they’re so simple to make, she can make them on her own. I don’t remember exactly where or when we first saw…
One thing I do to make mealtimes a bit easier for our large homeschooling family is to make freezer meals. I even do this with some of our breakfast recipes. On a monthly basis we will usually make pancakes, waffles, and muffins to freeze so we have them on hand for the entire month. Chocolate…
Our team member, Conni, who usually posts our recipes each week wasn’t able to post for us today. Instead, I thought I’d share with you about how we do breakfast at my house. Whether you cook breakfast or don’t cook breakfast, you might enjoy this post! Take a look and see, and then we’d love…
Moist, classic banana bread for a delicious treat.
Do you love pancakes like we love pancakes? In our home, foods that are traditionally thought of as “breakfast” foods – like pancakes – make appearances at all hours of the day. We often have “Breakfast for Dinner” nights, and these fluffy pancakes with granola and chopped pecans are a favorite.
It’s that time of the year when all I can think about is the sweet aroma of spices and baked apples floating from my kitchen and saturating the house. That means it’s time for some apple muffins! If I don’t bake, then I’ll find an apple and cinnamon spice or pumpkin pie scented candle to…
