Success!

by Tansy

For dinner last night I made one of my easy defaults - that is, rice and something.

The something in this case was chicken with baby beans and thin sliced carrots, cooked in honey, soy sauce, ginger and garlic. It was not only delicious, but Raeli ate it with great enthusiasm.

In fact, she ate the whole bowlful. Completely. I don’t think she’s ever cleaned a bowl of food quite so neatly - she rarely leaves any cereal or traces of sandwiches on plates, but a bowl of something and rice with absolutely no food left in the bowl?

Not only that, but once she’d eaten all the chicken, she took great delight in hunting specific vegetables out of the bowl and eating them.

If you will excuse me, I think I will be smug for the rest of the day.

About Kids Dish

If you flip through the pages of a number of kids’ magazines, you get the impression that kids’ meals should be Michelin affairs, complete with matching dishware and veggies cut to resemble the works of impressionist painters.

Let’s be real. Parents don’t have that kind of time. And kids have to eat. The two are not mutually exclusive.

Kids' dish focuses on healthy, practical meal solutions for kids… and occasionally, that might mean matching dishware.
