Easy and quick pancakes

Toast and Eggs

During the week, you may find me fussing about my kids eating a particular meal, but I’m learning to put a variety of foods on their plates and let them pick at what they like while encouraging them to try others. This mainly works on holidays or Saturday morning where we are not in a hurry to go anywhere.

Toast

Toast slices of whole (wheat) bread – or your choice of bread

Scrambled Eggs

Chop onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers

In a pan, pour a tablespoon of olive oil, and place on a medium heat stove,

Once hot, pour in the onion and allow to simmer, then follow with tomatoes and bell peppers,

Sprinkle a few pinches of salt to your taste and allow to fry.

Crack and beat 4 large eggs in a bowl (add Black pepper if there’s one close by).

Pour in the eggs into the pan and mix all ingredients until the eggs are fried.

Transfer to a serving dish.

It’s been an uphill battle getting my children to eat vegetables they used to eat. Most vegetables are now “yucky”, today its broccoli’s turn to grace their plates. This is our thursday diners which usually goes half eaten, but I continue to offer and encourage. We’ll get there!
