Leave a comment

Let’s talk about one of Joey’s favorite things….snack time. Or as he calls it, ‘nack time. If Joey had it his way, he would eat snack all day, every day.

Having a toddler that enjoys eating is great  seeing as how I have some picky eaters too. When it comes to Joey and his precious snack time, I like to make sure that he isn’t eating candy or sweets but I also like to have things that are quick and easy. 

We recently discovered Gerber ® Lil’ Beanies(TM) at Target and they have quickly become one of Joey’s favorite snacks.

Gerber Lil’ Beanies is a nutritious snack made from navy beans that are packed with 2 grams of protein (9% Daily Value) and 1 gram of fiber per serving and they are not made with genetically engineered (GM) ingredients and have no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.


Gerber® Lil’ Beanies(TM) are the perfect snack for Joey at home or on-the-go because they are mess free and easy enough for him to serve himself!

Gerber Lil’ Beanies are currently available in two flavors, Original and White Cheddar and Broccoli.

I think we have finally found the perfect ‘toddler snack’ for our little guy!

Fresh Baby SO Easy Toddler Food Cookbook & Kids Portion Plate Review

Leave a comment


As a mom of 3, I am like to have things on hand for the kids to snack on in between meals. Now that Zack and Libby are older, they are more into preparing their own snacks and assisting Alexander at the same.

Things in our house just got a whole lot easier thanks to the So Easy Toddler Food cookbook  from Fresh Baby.

This cookbook is full of quick and simple recipes that is easy for all of the kids to make!
One of our favorite lunchtime meals is the Lunchmeat Roll Up because they are quick and easy to make not to mention delicious!
Plus, the little guy has A LOT of fun making them!

To make the Lunchmeat Roll Ups you will need the following:
-1 slice of deli-ham, turkey, or roast beef trimmed to fit thesize of the bread.
-1 Tbsp cream cheese
-1 Steamed string bean, asparagus spear, or raw celery stick.
-1 Slice whole wheat bread, crust removed.

Spread the cream cheese evenly on the bread. Save about 1/2 tsp for later. Layer the deli meat evenly over the bread except for a 1/2 inch strip down one side of bread. Spread the remaining cream cheese down the strip, this will glue to seal the edge of the roll up. Place the vegetable piece along one side of the bread and roll it up from one end to another.

Makes 1 toddler serving.

See, aren’t they cute?

With this cookbook, we were also lucky enough to review Fresh Baby’s NEW Kid’s Portion Plate!

This plate is another great tool during meals to ensure that your child is getting everything they need. It is divided into 3 sections appropriately sized for Fruits & Veggies, Proteins and Grains. I have found that it has been very handy in ensuring we are not overfeeding the little guy one thing and lacking in another.

Thank you to Fresh Baby for allowing us to review these great products!
