Replace Potato Chips with Pita Chips

My kids can put a hurtin' on a bag of chips. We have found some good organic brands that we love. Organic chips can get pretty expensive though. So we take pita, brush a little butter on both sides and sprinkle a little zaatar, and bake in the oven at 350 for about 12 minutes or until they are your desired crispness.

We serve this with organic hummus, and the kids devour it! It is a much healthier snack than chips and dip, without losing the crunch or the creamy dip. We also love serving raw veggies with hummus.

Some Easy Drink Recipes for Kids

Happy Labor Day everyone! Whether you are grilling, or just chillin', I have some great drink options for the kiddos today. Don't get me wrong, the adults can enjoy too! I have a recipe for a blueberry smoothie, that has blueberries, bananas and yogurt. Also in the article are recipes for a tropical smoothie, a cran-orange chiller, and a strawberry smoothie.




There are many ways in which to enjoy being healthy, and making a round of delicious, fruity drinks for the family can be one. Berries are full of antioxidants, so add as much as your taste buds like! Bananas are high in potassium, and low-fat yogurt is a great source of protein. Make them all organic and you up the health ante even more.

Come back soon, when I post some great high protein, toddler friendly smoothie recipes....including one for avocado melon....avocados are a super food, and are amazingly healthy!

Enjoy, and HAPPY LABOR DAY!!
