Simple as pie, this is one of the easiest egg recipes you can make! It’s packed with protein, and has a delicious flavor from the feta and plain yogurt.
Because this recipe is so simple, there aren’t many substitution options! But, feel free to swap out the feta for other types of cheese. Some other options are cheddar, goat cheese, pecorino, or gouda. Add diced zucchini, bell peppers, chopped cherry tomatoes, spinach, or any other veggies for a nutrient boost!
Eggs are a great choice for babies, toddlers, kids, and adults! Pediatric dietitian Alicia ‘Chacha” Miller, MS, RD, LDN (@Itsthecardamom on Instagram) says that eggs are a great source of protein, energy, and fats that support brain development. They improve eye development, too! She says, “They are also one of the best food sources of choline, which is crucial for many processes in the body like brain development, cognition, memory, mood, gene expression, muscle control, and many other functions of the nervous system. See her post about eggs here!

I love cheese crackers. Plain and simple, I just love them. I always have and I always will! They’re so addicting to me, and once I start eating them I just can’t stop. My kids are the same – goldfish, bunnies, cheez its.. It doesn’t matter which brand! I totally give these snacks to them on occasion, but they aren’t always the best snack option. So, I got to work in the kitchen to try and make something similar.
What makes these crackers great?
These crackers don’t last long in our house because our kids like them so much. Ok, I’ll admit it, I eat a lot of them too! So, we usually don’t need to store them for very long. But, if you need to store these, keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
These crackers can be any shape or size. The easiest way to make them is to use a pizza cutter to create square or rectangle shapes, because you won’t have any scraps that you’ll need to roll out again. Use a toothpick to poke a hole in the middle to make them resemble store bought snack crackers. But, I’ve also used small cutters to create fun shapes! You can make them holiday themed, use just have fun using assorted shapes.

My kids love pizza, as most people do. So, I wanted to think of a different way to give them that familiar pizza flavor in a more nutritious way. The idea hit me – pizza muffins. I had seen recipes here and there for pizza muffins, but I started working on my own. Here’s what I wanted out of these muffins:
After a few trials, the pizza muffin recipe was born. These taste best served warm and dipped in flavorful pizza sauce. Yum!
The photo to the left shows the fluffy inside of the pizza muffin. This picture has NO mix ins (toppings) added in. But, Mixing your pepperoni, veggies, or other toppings into the batter before baking is a very delicious option!
Honestly, I don’t think my kids taste a difference between this and actual chocolate ice cream. It’s perfect for an outside snack during the summer months, but is great year round. This recipe uses no added sugar, has only 5 ingredients, and is packed with read more
