The Average Mom Home Cooking & Baking Show
I try and make most meals for my family at home. I'm definitely not perfect and there are a lot of frozen foods or processed foods that I end up using. BUT when I can I try and these are a few things I always like to have on hand. Progress not perfec...

The fan favorites
I made the switch at least 4-5 years ago and I will never go back. This is an easy and way healthier swap for soy sauce and I promise you won't know the difference. You can find it at nearly every store and the health benefits are so good for you com...
I tend to do things in moderation, some items in my pantry I go all in and they are very healthy other things are just a tad better. This is one of them. I don't go with an all natural kind of peanut butter (I have 3 kids and need convenience) This to me is a great option. Lower in sugar, still tastes great and is little kid approved.
Wow oh wow is this stuff good! I love Mike's Hot Honey. I have a great mom on the go breakfast that uses this (toasted english muffin, creamy avocado, salt, red pepper flakes and Mike's hot honey drizzled on top!) Crunch, creamy, salty, hot and sweet…it has it all. This stuff is good on so many things! On...
I feel like a broken record but this is another really great “healthier” swap. I will substitute with this instead of using honey all the time.
I almost always have this in my pantry and usually use it over Olive Oil. It has a great taste, cooks well and at Aldi it comes at an even better price. I think the health benefits of it too aren't to shabby either!
Baking
I do think you get what you pay for and the King Arthur Brand is your 5 star brand. Anytime I use their products my recipes turn out better than I ever expected.
This is a great option when you want to make easy and effective swaps for a healthier lifestyle. I use the confectionary sugar and my kids don't notice a difference at all.
My kids don't have allergies but I use these religiously. I think they have a great taste and they work just as well as your normal chocolate chip.
Seasonings
Good high quality flaky sea salt. A favorite in our house
I put this on chicken all the time and it is sooo soo good!
If you are from Maryland then you know, if not you are missing out.
Misc Favorites
I've mentioned their snacking chips but it's worth adding these to the list as well. A great option for families needing items that are allergy friendly and they truly taste better than the others on the market. Highly recommend.
Gluten Free
For a gluten free cookie I really like these. I like the crispyness and the flavors balance out nicely.
