🩵Did you know your local food banks can connect yo 🩵Did you know your local food banks can connect you with families that need a hot meal? 👩🏻‍🍳🍲 My pastor talks a lot about how we can use our gifts that God gave us to spread kindness and love. Lately, I’ve been trying to connect with families that need a little extra help when it comes to feeding their families. My four year old and I have so much fun together cooking so it’s a thing we love to do together. & if you need a meal train idea that isn’t a pasta bake or a gluten free option, this meatloaf recipe is one of my favorites! 🩵comment “recipe!” And I’ll send you the meatloaf recipe.👩🏻‍🍳 ##mealtrain #glutenfreemealtrain #hotmeals #spreadkindness
I truly don’t think I’ve ever received more messag I truly don’t think I’ve ever received more messages in my life asking what changes we made to help our son eat better and put an end to the dinnertime drama. Seems like a lot of us having been going through the same!

Not every family deals with this, but if you do, I feel you! 🩵 I wanted to share some of the things we’ve done that have made a huge difference in our household.

I’d also love to hear what’s worked for your family, so share your tips in the comments! We’re always looking for new ideas as we continue this journey. Especially ways I can prevent my second child from falling off track as he starts solids soon!

Even though I’ve put so much work into making these changes, my son hasn’t even noticed… and honestly, that was the goal.

I could talk about this all day because I’m so passionate about it, but I’ll stop here for now. If you’d like another post with meal ideas or a pantry and fridge tour, let me know! #pickyeaters #pickyeater #dinnerdrama #toddlertips #motherhood
