Start the Day Gently🥞
Breakfast is the hardest meal of the day for me because I'm so tired and I just need a minute to wake up. Here's no prep breakfasts kids can get up and do themselves for when you just cannot do it.
These aren't the least expensive option ever because they go FAST. But they are a little to no effort breakfast depending on whether the kids can open them themselves. These are perfect for when the baby is nursing all night and you just need to let ...
Entenmann's Little Bites Party Cake Muffins - 8.25oz
My kids got sick of yogurt, but they'll eat this because Minecraft, so good luck to you! Apparently switching characters fixing everything 🤣🤦🏼♀️🙇♀️ Also, yes I know these aren't healthy but they are better than losing my sanity on the bad days!
Yoplait Go-Gurt Strawberry/Vanilla Fat Free Kids' Yogurt - 40oz/20ct
These are great for if you're rushing to school or summer fun in the morning, and they are little healthier so they last longer. Also, disclaimer my kids are now sick of these but they did eat them for like a whole 6 months so I'm counting that as a ...
CLIF Kid ZBar Organic Iced Oatmeal Cookie Energy Bars - 18ct
Playful No Prep Lunch 🥪
Lunch can be a little bit fun but also needs to be ready to take on the go, these can be for sandwich fixings or if that's too much throw it on a plate and call it a charceuterie board.
Everyone needs a good Dino Nugget selection, this is ours because Perdue has a really good reputation for being kind to their Chickens and also making healthy choices. I'm not recommending the one with vegetables inside because it gave all of us hear...
Perdue Panko Breaded Chicken Breast Dino Nuggets - Frozen - 27oz
One of our favorite Mom-Kid Routines when I had the two girls was chips and dip days. We would throw this in the microwave with some cheese and chopped onions and eat it with tortilla chips. Took literally 5 minutes to make and if you share the dip b...
Old El Paso Vegetarian Refried Beans - 16oz
For a little variety on the last idea have these instead of refried beans but add a little lime juice. :-)
Old El Paso Refried Black Beans - 16oz
These are our FAVORITE tortilla chips, they are also available in white corn.
Calidad Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips - 11oz
When money is super tight; these chips are not as good as the last ones, but there’s more for less money, they last a little longer too which is nice.
White Corn Tortilla Rounds Bite Size - 13oz - Market Pantry™
The Last Meal of the Day 🥘
Dinner is when daddy gets home, so it's kind of easy kind of hard depending on the day. Here's ideas that take little to no effort and don't need you to be in the kitchen the whole time to prep.
Mac and Cheese is my go-to "it's been a long day" dinner-and Annie's is as healthy as box pasta gets. Also, this one tastes like what Kraft used to taste like, so the nostalgia vibes are the best. If there are more than 3 of you I recommend two boxes...
Annie's Macaroni & Cheese Classic Mild Cheddar - 24oz/4pk
The perfect combo of healthy-ish, flavorful enough for the adults and tasty enough for the kids, and not as expensive as some of the other brands-this is a win. Also, buy this at Target, it's a LOT more expensive elsewhere unless you find a good deal...
Screamin' Sicilian Holy Pepperoni Frozen Pizza - 22.30oz
Infinite Snacks for Toddler Moms
Why do the snacks never end?! And my kids are always changing their mind on what they like. Here's a bunch of ideas hopefully some you didn't think of yet!
This is one of my favorite packages of goldfish to buy-it's the cheapest I have found them, and there's a little variety. They are also SNAP eligible if you need that!
Goldfish Crackers Variety Pack, 30 Snack Packs
Cheez Its are the absolute favorite in my house. This box lasts us two days, but honestly, we eat out less and everyone's happy, so every once in a while it's a good treat!
Cheez-It Baked Snack Crackers Variety Pack 12ct
Literally just heard my kids reciting their tagline "rich chocolate ovaltine" This is a staple in our house becahse one of my littles runs low on iron and the other doesn't like taking her multivitamin. It's a good compromise and it also is a good sn...
Ovaltine Rich Chocolate Mix - 12oz
Bedtime Magic Foods
We found a secret sauce for when the kids won't sleep-bananas & almond butter-we make sandwiches with the almond butter as the first layer and bananas on top. It works often enough that we still do it three kids in!
This is just one bread option but when I can I like to get fancy versions of multigrain bread, they won't eat the healthiest versions, but I can usually get them to tolerate these.
Sliced Multigrain Bread - 17oz - Favorite Day™
A little healthier than Nutella and way more helpful for sleep, highly recommend this treat, and bonus it's a treat for you too, so win!
Justin's Chocolate Hazelnut Butter Blend - 12oz
Another option is combining the almond butter or peanut butter into this yogurt, and if they're low on iron you can add molasses! Healthy Yogurt also helps their tummy so don't skip on that!
Chobani Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt - 32oz
