Notes
These little babies are a great sneak in the wholesomeness that kids might not otherwise eat. Hide those veggies in a cupcake to make for a sweet special treat. Frost with honey goat cheese or cream cheese sweetened with honey to add extra pizzazz! We have been exploring new ways of baking even if you don’t have any allergies. It might not hurt to vary your diet to include different flours and sweeteners. There is a whole new world of ingredients to play around with in the kitchen the create tasty treats that are healthy alternatives to our diets.
Make a wish to another happy and health Birthday!!!
