Those early weeks are a blur of feedings and short naps, and having dinner ready to thaw meant one less thing to fall apart on the hard days.

Fiber is what actually keeps my kids full until snack time, so I build these around oats, whole grains, beans, and fruit. Sunday is my prep day. A slow, high-fiber breakfast beats a sugary one that fades by 9am. 1) […]
