At The Creative Kitchen, we love nothing more than a food that is delicious, convenient, versatile and most importantly, good for your entire family! Vapza 7 Grains is already cooked and can be used in a wide variety of dishes, which makes it perfect for families who are looking to get a boost of nutrients from more meals throughout the week. This medley of nutrient-dense grains is thoughtfully grown in Brazil, steam cooked, and vacuum sealed in BPA-free plastic bag. This blend contains whole grain rice, red rice, white quinoa, black quinoa, red quinoa, flaxseed, and chia seeds. Vapza created this product with the busy, health-conscious parent in mind. Flaxseed and chia seeds can lower blood sugar levels and risk of heart disease. They’re both superfoods, and provide fiber, iron, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids (which are linked to even more health benefits such as improving eye health and risk factors for heart disease, fighting inflammation, and more!).

 

From the Mouth of a Kid:

“Burrito bowls are my favorite and we used this instead of rice. It was really yummy!”

 

From the Eyes of a Parent:

“Vapza 7 Grains appeases my rice-loving children with the whole grain and red rice while the other grains like quinoa, flaxseed, and chia provide protein, healthy omega-3s, and fiber. Squeezing those nutrients in can be tough, but products like this make it so much easier. Also, the fact that it’s ready-to-eat makes dinner time less stressful!”

 

Flavorful Features:

Vazpa has a variety of steam cooked options for your next meal!

  • Pinto Beans
  • Black Beans
  • Quinoa Mix
  • Brown Rice

 

The Icing on the Cake:

Rice and quinoa can be easily under cooked or overcooked, but Vapza 7 Grains takes out the guess work! Because this product is already steam cooked, it can be used in pinch without the worry. Substitute Vapza 7 Grains for rice in a quick stir fry or your favorite burrito bowl. And, Vapza 7 Grains is not only organic, but also vegan and kosher.

 

Time to Eat?!

Vazpa 7 Grains is the perfect addition to lunch or dinner!

 

Mix it Up!

Vapza 7 Grains can be served hot or cold. Try tossing this 7 grains mix on a salad instead of croutons. It’s a great way to sneak in extra plant protein and healthy omegas!

1_Cover_Healthy Junior Chef CookbookPopsicles for breakfast?! Sign us up! Looking for some new recipes to help refresh mealtime at home? Or maybe you’d like to find some nutritious recipes that your kids will not only enjoy eating (a tricky business, we know), but will actually want to help make? One of our most tried and true beliefs when it comes to kids and food is that cooking is a multi-faceted learning opportunity. When children are involved in the cooking process, including the selection of ingredients, they’re more likely to try new, unfamiliar foods!

We love supporting programs and resources that reinforce this philosophy, and that’s why we’re thrilled to share an amazing cookbook with you: The Healthy Junior Chef Cookbook from Williams-Sonoma. Providing recipes that are simultaneously delicious and nutritious, this cookbook will inspire kids to get creative in the kitchen and enjoy the entire cooking process! Remember those ‘breakfast popsicles’ we mentioned before? Yogurt Parfait Breakfast Pops are just one of the many fun and delicious dishes you’ll find in this book. The photography alone will have the whole family drooling, parents included (just look at that cover!). The easy to follow instructions, colorful illustrations, and expert cooking tips will keep both kids AND adults engaged in the kitchen and inspired to eat well – now who doesn’t want that?  

 

Grab a copy of The Healthy Junior Chef Cookbook here!

 

From the Mouth of a Kid:

I like to cook with this cookbook! It’s fun and yummy! I like the pictures!

 

From the Eyes of a Parent:

What a fun and easy way to get your kids involved in the kitchen (and still make something even mom and dad will enjoy)! I try to do this on my own on a regular basis, but sometimes it’s nice to have some concrete help and advice. We love each recipe we’ve tried so far, and my kids love planning out our meals for each week and picking out the ingredients we need. The recipes are easy enough to follow so my younger kids can participate, but interesting enough that my older ones are still engaged! Everything in this book is kid-friendly, but so delicious that parents will enjoy them as well. I’d recommend this book to any aspiring young chef, or even families like ours that just wanted our kids to get a little more excited about cooking. So far, my favorite recipe is the Chicken and Pineapple Kebabs, they’re perfect for summer BBQ’s! My kids’ favorite is the Homemade Fruit Roll Ups; they have a great time making those, and they’re so yummy too!

 

Flavorful Features:

There’s more than 70 recipes for everything from breakfast and snacks to main courses and desserts, all kid-friendly with easy to follow instructions. There’s also fun serving ideas included to keep the creative juices flowing! Recipes include: Zucchini Lasagna with Turkey Bolognese, Spaghetti with Cauliflower Pesto, Homemade Fruit Roll Ups, Broccoli Apple Lunchbox Slaw, and so much more. 

 

The Icing on the Cake:

Our favorite part about this cookbook is how each recipe is focused on the nutrition it provides, without sacrificing the fun and delicious flavors that kids love!

 

Mix it Up!

Get an extremely early start on holiday shopping with this book, perfect for any little chef who wants some more practice in the kitchen (not to mention some yummy meals and snacks the whole family can eat!).

Parent-Picked-Kid-Approved-logo

Looking for ways to reduce your impact on the environment? There are a lot of different ways we can help, and it can seem overwhelming, but it’s easiest to start small and go from there. For instance, with straws! This tiny swap can make a big difference. Klean Kanteen makes easy to clean stainless steel straws with colorful, flexible silicone tips. They come in two sizes: 8mm for drinks such as juices and water, and 10mm for smoothies. Did we mention they’re dishwasher safe? There’s lots of fun colors to choose from, one for everyone in the family!

 

From the Mouth of a Kid:

The straws save turtles lives!!!

 

From the Eyes of a Parent:

Trying to help save the environment can feel like an enormous task, one that’s almost impossible. However, I’ve realized that small steps add up, so our family tries to find little ways here and there to help, such as using re-usable grocery bags. We’ve moved onto straws now, which has been easier than expected! My family loves using straws, for anything from water to smoothies. I love Klean Kanteen’s stainless steel straws because they’re dishwasher safe, and because of the silicone tip at the top of the straw! I’ve used stainless steel straws without that before, and it’s just not comfortable. I even keep a stash of these in the car for on-the-go orders!

 

Flavorful Features:

Check out the different sizes and color combinations of Klean Kanteen reusable straws here!

 

The Icing on the Cake:

Klean Kanteen stainless steel straws and reusable, dishwasher safe, and help keep plastic out of our oceans!

 

Time to Eat Use?!

Re-usable straws are appropriate any time of the day! From juices to smoothies to mom or dad’s coffee, there’s no wrong time to use one of these stainless steel straws.

 

Good to Go?

Pack some of these straws in your car or purse to use for eating on the go!

 

Mix it Up!

With colorful silicone tips, Klean Kanteen’s straws make it easy to tell everyone’s drinks apart! No more mix-ups!

These organic freezer pops will make you forget all about those other sugary frozen popsicles with hidden artificial ingredients. They’re low in sugar and are made without any artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. DeeBee’s Organics uses organic fruit juices to make SuperFruit Freezies, and did we mention they’re also shelf stable? Keep some in your pantry to leave some space in your freezer, and freeze them as needed. Each bag comes with three yummy flavors your whole family is sure to love…but strawberry is our favorite!

My family definitely loves their share of sugary treats. I try to limit it as much as I can, but it can be hard when my kids constantly ask for the same sugar-filled snacks. I love DeeBee’s Organics SuperFruit Freezies because they’re low in sugar compared to other frozen popsicles, and they’re made from entirely organic ingredients! My kids love the taste and they each have their favorite flavor. I like that I can keep some on the shelf and freeze them as needed. Overall, a great snack for our family that even I love too!
