Fennel frond pesto, you say? Delicious, you say? But…. Dun. Dun. Dun. It’s green. My kids aren’t going near it! Ok. I get it. Fussy eaters are notorious for not eating their greens. There are a few reasons behind our nutrient packed green vegie friends getting shunned by our little angels at dinner time. Today, let’s talk all things green, why kids are fussy about green fruits and vegetables ….and make a fennel frond pesto while we are at it!…

Green Vegetables and Kids with a Fennel Frond Pesto Recipe

Another little creative idea has been "bubbly" in my head all day. And it is sooooo going to hit the #getcreativewith brief this week.
You see, I always thought I was "just not the creative type" ~ I am HOT with numbers, SIZZLING with science and finding the perfectly fitting journal article was my JAM! Thinking that I had to CHOOSE between what I was "good at" and creativity was, honestly, pretty silly on my part. Thinking "I am not creative" has been THE biggest self-limiting belief OF.MY.LIFE.
This is why, each week I stare down the gauntlet of my fave creative challenge and weave it into something food related.
Do you do something to challenge your inner narrative? Challenge something that you tell yourself... Especially when it just isn't true? Where did that limitation come from?
Well.... On that sombering thought...My procrastibaking is about to start! Check back with me tomorrow to see if I can actually pull this one off! [Song Lyrics from #ColbieCaillat "Bubbly". Post topic inspiration from the fascinating @kirstinbousepsych

![🙋 So... My hubby is choosing zucchini for me (apparently) 🙋
Tonight on @masterchefau they are cooking their way through a mystery box with the mystery ingredient chosen by a loved one. Of course, I was all like 😭😭😭 when the reunions with their loved ones started, but conversation soon turned to what we would choose for eachother. Miss V [4yo] wants olives or 🍦to be given to her to create with. Miss E would like to make pancakes with whatever she was given.
Tell me who is the masterchef in your world and what you would choose for them to create their culinary magic with!
If I was choosing for @twinkletoes100, she would get a tin of lentils from me and have 50 minutes up her sleeve at the end of this challenge. Her lentil bolognese recipe is now up on the blog.
So quick.
5 ingredients.
Is it a #masterchef creation? Well, maybe not "as is" but you'll be super happy with this in your midweek repertoire. I have added some tips for making this suit your family too (even with #fussyeaters). X Simone
