From the Eyes of a Parent:

I was a bit skeptical of seaweed before trying gimME Snacks’ Roasted Seaweed Snacks, but now I’m hooked, and so are my kids! I’m so happy we have a savory snack that they now ask for over and over again, rather than the sugary treats they usually beg for. The clean ingredients are just amazing, and who knew seaweed was such a superfood? I’m so grateful for the vitamins and minerals in it that can sometimes be tricky to incorporate into my kids’ diets, when they turn their noses up at fruits and vegetables so often. I always have these in my pantry (and my car!), and the single serving packages make it incredibly easy to throw into lunchboxes and backpacks for my kids.

 

Flavorful Features:

gimMe’s Roasted Seaweed Snacks come in these yummy flavors:

  • Sea Salt
  • Avocado Oil
  • Teriyaki
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Toasted Sesame
  • Wasabi

 

The Icing on the Cake:

This snack is chock-full of vitamins and minerals, such as vitamins A, C, B-12, and iodine. It’s also gluten-free, USDA Certified organic, and only 25 calories per serving. 

 

Time to Eat?!

Lunch, dinner, mid-morning, after-school, even midnight! You name it, and it’s a good time to eat gimMe’s Roasted Seaweed Snacks.

 

Good to Go?

These were MADE for taking with you on-the-go. Individually-portioned packages are great for lunchboxes, backpacks, purses, even your snack box in the car for emergency snacking!

Product Review: Sorghum https://www.thecreativekitchen.com/product-review-sorghum-3/ https://www.thecreativekitchen.com/product-review-sorghum-3/#respond Mon, 23 Sep 2019 13:00:55 +0000 http://www.thecreativekitchen.com/?p=12748

If you’re looking to mix up your selection of nutritious grains, grab a bag of sorghum! This naturally gluten-free grain is similar to rice or quinoa, and is rich in antioxidants. It’s also packed full of other nutrients such as protein, iron, Vitamin B6, and magnesium. Sorghum is a very versatile grain with a simple flavor profile, making it a no-brainer for parents looking for ways to simplify mealtime and satisfy different palates at home. It can be used for any meal of the day; in pancakes at breakfast, in salads or soups at lunch and dinner, and you can even pop it like popcorn!

 

Join us at our Whole Foods cooking classes the week of September 23rd where we’ll incorporate sorghum into our recipes! Visit our calendar for more information on our classes.

From the Mouth of a Kid:

It’s fluffy and kinda tastes like rice!

From the Eyes of a Parent:

Sorghum has become a household staple for us! I love the nutrients it provides: one serving has almost half the recommended daily intake of protein and iron, and it’s a good source of minerals like magnesium, calcium and potassium. It’s filling and everyone in the family loves it. And, it’s so easy to make! I’ve used it as a substitute for other grains in some of my usual recipes, too.

 

The Icing on the Cake:

There are a number of reasons why we love sorghum, but we love its versatility the most: you can pop it like popcorn, use sorghum flour to make your favorite baked goods, or cook it like rice to add to salads, soups, and other dishes.

 

Time to Eat?!

Sorghum can be incorporated into any meal – breakfast, lunch, snack time, dinner, or dessert! 

 

Mix it Up!

If you’re looking for more creative ways to add sorghum to your diet, add it to a soup or stew to turn a broth into a hearty and nutrient-filled meal.

Here at The Creative Kitchen, we understand how difficult it can be to find the right products for children with sensitive stomachs. Luckily, our friends at Kabrita USA also understand this struggle and have created a goat’s milk formula known for its easy digestive properties. Those who have trouble digesting cow’s milk will love this delicious alternative – no more upset tummies! Wondering why goat’s milk is so much easier to digest than cow’s milk? It has to do with the amount of short- and medium-chain fatty acids in the milk fat (goat’s milk has more than cow’s milk!), and the protein in goat’s milk forms a smaller curd in your stomach, which is naturally easier to digest than cow’s milk protein. And even better, Kabrita uses high-quality goat’s milk made without antibiotics, growth hormones, or pesticides! Your kids will love the smooth, sweet taste, and
