She has never eaten a bite of chicken, turkey, beef, or pork. NOT because I won't allow it...but because she won't even look at it!
She also has never taken a bite of broccoli or green beans...
She loves sweet potatoes, grapes, and strawberries but that's about it.
And lately she won't even eat a banana!
She says everything has "stuppy" bites.
We try to instill the one bite rule...having her to take a small bite of something new before she says she doesn't like it...most of the time she will try a teeny bite..but that's about it.
So when I heard about Three Crunchy Mamas...I was pumped!
One of the bakers of this wonderful local small business just happens to be one of our friends.
Then I had the pleasure to meet another of the magnificent bakers in our art camp...small Nashville world it is!
These three ladies are fabulous cooks and want the best for our children!
They are so well versed in health and ingredients!
So amazing!
They set out to create TRULY healthy snacks.
Snacks actually made from vegetables and fruits.
Not just treats labeled as organic but sugar ladened!
Here's the company motto:
"We, Three Crunchy Mama, started baking healthy treats for our children when we realized that even organic cookies in stores had a whole lot of sugar and were not that good for you."
The "happiest cookie" contains a whole serving of vegetables ( sweet potato and carrot) and is only sweetened with fruit. It's rich in fiber and contains healthy fats ( extra virgin organic coconut oil) in lower amount than your 'grocery store cookie',
A very popular treat is their breakfast brownie, It's grain-free with half an egg and half a banana in each serving. It comes in two flavors: blueberries or chocolate. It's sweetened mainly with bananas and a touch of local honey.
The lemon cookie bites are only sweetened with raisins and is vegan friendly.
The coconut macaroons are the sweetest of our treats, they are grain free, vegan and sweetened with organic maple syrup.
For little ones, they have come up with fun looking snacks, like their Crunchy mamas butter cookie (organic butter, organic carrot and sweetened only with fruit ).
Check out their fb page for local farmers markets...so you can try some for yourself and your kiddos!
