All mothers can relate to one thing, and that is being an all-around support system for their family and kids. Being a mom is not a joke-- it requires a lot of patience, determination, effort, and most of all, time. A mother's time is always running, from helping kids prepare for school, preparing meals for them, driving them to school, going to the office, and doing household chores, there is never enough hours in the day.
Whether you are a stay-at-home mom or a mom who is always on the go, here are five fast and easy recipes that you can prepare for your family. You can never be too busy to show them your love through your cooking, so bring the best mom with these delicious treats!
Two-Minute Tacos
We all love tacos-- and who wouldn't, right? With time running, tacos are one of the easiest recipes you can do. Tacos are convenient to make because you can customize the ingredients to your family's liking. This makes it easier for moms to throw in whatever there is in the fridge and seem creative at the same time. Just heat pita, add some meat and veggies, and you're good to go!
Bagel Bites
Bagels are known to be a breakfast thing, but little do we know we can be creative when it comes to food and turn ordinary bagels into something much more. Regardless if your kids are picky eaters, you can always make a good homemade bagel that they will love. Also, bagels can be stored in the freezer, so all you need to do is reheat it and add your kids' favorite topping. You can also let your kids customize their own bagel with the toppings of their choice.
Sandwich Skewers
If you're looking for a healthier option, a sandwich skewer might just be the recipe for you. This has absolutely zero prep for moms. Just cut some sandwich pieces: bread, pickles, ham, chicken, cheese-- and put them on a stick, then viola! You now have a snack on the go. But be mindful of the pointy sticks and keep an eye on your children when they're doing theirs.
Fruit bowls
Fruit bowls are very easy to make and you can even prepare them in the evening so they'll be ready for breakfast the next day. You can also precook oatmeal and cut fruit into small pieces for healthy and delicious toppings. Seal them with a food seal and store it in the fridge. You can also get uncooked oatmeal and put it in a ziplock, and then add some fruits into it. You can make a ziplock for each of your kids with their favorite fruit mixed in. This recipe is easy and simple and it doesn't even require that much effort.
Granola bars
Granola bars are very healthy and delicious. You may opt to buy granola bars in the grocery, but making your own granola bars can be more special and enticing as it will be an opportunity to spend quality time with the kids. If you have free time, or on your day-off, you can always schedule time with your kids to make muffins, cookies, and granola bars. Make as many as you want and store them in jars for your kids to munch on when they're on the go or just relaxing. This also helps you save money on breakfast or lunch, and will enable your kids to feel your love way down in their belly.
