What’s Cameron Eating? – Mini Pancakes!

I’ve given Cameron pancakes before, but one day at the playground one of my mom friends whipped out some mini (silver dollar sized) ones in a container that she had kept for snack time.  What a brilliant idea!  It’s great for the kids because they can hold them in their hands and run around and play while they snack.

Pancakes, not just for breakfast!

I make my pancakes with the Arrowhead Mills Multigrain Pancake & Waffle Mix which is available on Fresh Direct.    The directions for the pancakes don’t call for an egg, but I add one anyways.  I also use melted butter instead of oil, and add a touch of honey for sweetness.  I haven’t gotten too advanced yet, but I am thinking adding strawberries, blueberries, or bananas would be good, or if you want to go the hidden vegetable route, perhaps some pumpkin puree.  So next time you make pancakes for breakfast, make a few extra little guys to tote around as snacks.  Yum!

What’s Cameron Eating? – Peanut Butter Toast!

I got this idea for a breakfast treat from another mom who was feeding it to her 14 month old daughter:

Whole wheat toast with a little butter, and then some peanut butter.  The butter helps it not be quite so thick and sticky.  The warm toast melts the peanut butter nicely.

Cameron really enjoys it – and it’s a nice break from the morning waffle rut we had fallen into.

What’s Cameron Eating – Baby Yogurt and Bananas

For Breakfast I often give Cameron YoBaby Baby Yogurt (full fat) plus a mashed up banana and some other fruit additive – blueberries, peaches, pears…..  He loves it, and I love knowing that it’s good for him!
