These are the exact snacks I prepare for my daughter. Like so many of you, I\u2019m juggling a lot these days! Being a mom of 2 and running a business from home &#8211; our days are full and we rely on snacks that are both quick and nourishing to power us through the day! What we eat is truly important to nourish our body, our mind, support our immune health and energize our day!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A new find for us which I\u2019ve also been loving is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/elsenutrition.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ELSE Plant-Based Nutrition For Toddlers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">! It\u2019s normal for toddlers and kids to be picky eaters &#8211; perhaps loving a food one day and then not showing interest another day! That being said, a toddler nutrition supplement such as ELSE is a great way to add plant-based protein as well as vitamins and minerals to your little ones day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/elsenutrition.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ELSE Plant-Based Nutrition For Toddlers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is that it\u2019s made with real ingredients I feel great about&#8230; the first 2 ingredients being Organic Almond Butter and Organic Buckwheat Flour! It\u2019s also USDA Organic, gluten-free has the \u201cClean Label Project Purity Award\u201d and is Certified Plant-Based. Else is designed to be a complete nutrition for ages<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> 12+ months and contains 20 vitamins and minerals that support a child\u2019s growth and development. It is a great option for <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">toddlers<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with lactose intolerance, sensitivities and other dietary restrictions, a plant-based lifestyle or a preference for avoiding dairy or soy. Below is a simple green smoothie my toddler loves!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My daughter loves smoothies and the Peachy Green Smoothie recipe below is packed with nutrition! Spinach adds calcium, iron and fiber! Bananas are packed with potassium and flaxseeds a dose of omega-3 fats which power brain health! Ginger has antibacterial properties and is great for digestive health! While this smoothie has a beautiful bright green color &#8211; it tastes like peaches and bananas\u2026 yum!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone

To make, I mix 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk with \u00bc cup of chia seeds in a mason jar, stir well and let sit in the refrigerator overnight. In the morning, stir again and enjoy! I typically add a few tablespoons of chia pudding to a bowl, top with cinnamon, pumpkin seeds and raspberries (or any fruit your little one loves!). I start with a few tablespoons of chia pudding because sometimes that\u2019s all my daughter wants to eat, and then other days she wants more so we have a second or third helping! Chia seeds contain omega-3 fats which support brain and heart health, fiber and protein!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-76758\" src=\"https:\/\/healthygrocerygirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/ChiaPuddingKidsSnacks-900x600.jpg\" alt=\"Grey bowl with chia pudding, pumpkin seeds and raspberries.\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/healthygrocerygirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/ChiaPuddingKidsSnacks-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/healthygrocerygirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/ChiaPuddingKidsSnacks-scaled-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/healthygrocerygirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/ChiaPuddingKidsSnacks-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/healthygrocerygirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/ChiaPuddingKidsSnacks-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/healthygrocerygirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/ChiaPuddingKidsSnacks-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/healthygrocerygirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/ChiaPuddingKidsSnacks-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/healthygrocerygirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/ChiaPuddingKidsSnacks-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/healthygrocerygirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/ChiaPuddingKidsSnacks-1800x1200.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>Toddler Spinach Muffins\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We make <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthygrocerygirl.com\/blog\/toddler-spinach-muffins\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">these muffins <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">nearly every week!
