What do we eat?

In an effort to simplify our lives, we went in search of prepared snacks that do not have sugar or HFCS. This proved to quite a challenge! We keep consuming tons of fresh fruits and veggies. But, we needed a little something else. The littles also found themselves wanting "treats!" No problem, just had to get creative and make them from scratch. Here are photos of store-bought snacks that "qualify" and treats that we have made at home. The muffins are from "sugarandcinnamon" and we left off the icing. Next time though, we'll add it! Instead of icing, my littles needed a little butter and honey to top it off! The other treats are "Chocolate Chia Krispies" and "Tropical Paradise" Green Smoothie. The picture below depicts some of the sweeteners we've been using in scratch cooking and baking.
