I don't eat grains. My family doesn't eat gluten. I am paleo. I (kind of) like cooking, I love makeup, exercise, nail polish, wine, and, oh yeah, my three kids (under four) aren't too bad either.

Yummy Toddler Breakfast Muffins- Grain, Gluten, Sugar, Dairy Free
These days, getting S to eat anything other than raisins is a struggle. Veggies are especially difficult. I am not complaining though, up until this moment she has been a great eater, ate fruit, veggies, and protein heartily, so if she's getting a bit pickier now as she turns two, I really can't complain. That said, I still have to figure out how to get some dang nutrients in her in the mornings! So, behold, my
Yummy Toddler Breakfast Muffins- Grain, Gluten, Sugar, and Dairy Free
1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground ginger
pinch of salt
3 packets of stevia (i am using pure via right now)
1 4 oz container carrot baby food
1 4 oz container apple baby food (or apple sauce is fine too, half a cup)
1 egg
1/2 cup almond butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup raisins (optional- or chopped walnuts would be great too, or berries, whatever!)
In a small bowl, mix your shredded coconut, baking powder, salt, spices, and stevia packets. In a separate bowl, mix your carrot, apples, almond butter, egg, and vanilla extract. Combine well, then pour wet into dry and mix. Add your mix-ins if desired. Bake in muffin tin at 350 until golden brown and a knife comes out barely clean. For me this was 30 minutes, for a regular oven, probably more like 20.
