Clean Plate Life clean eating for busy families

Long video alert! Sorry
Rain in the UK causing so much flooding the school has closed, so I asked the kids what they wanted to do and they wanted to make their own snack but film them making it.

Im just enjoying the moment of them having fun together, working as a team, not fighting! And actually focused and calm.🥰

So i just had to share this with you to remind me days like this are possible and bring me peace and joy to see them like this.

Happy kids, happy mum 💖 ❤️ ❤️

Wild card night 🌶️🍜
We have a rule in our house:
If it’s a new meal, the kids don’t have to like it…
but they do have to try it.
Tonight’s wild card = chicken in black bean sauce with noodles.
Fully expected resistance.
Prepared for negotiations.
Instead…
Fox tried it.
Paused.
Then said: “Mum, I actually really like this.” 😳
Knock me down with a feather.
A reminder that kids can surprise you when the pressure’s off and curiosity is allowed.
No forcing. No drama. Just exposure + choice.
Won’t work every time, but sometimes, it really does 🤍

What’s the last meal your kids surprised you with?

Pasta gets such a bad rep, but when it’s paired with protein, fats and veg…
it becomes exactly what growing kids (and tired mums) need.
This is how we do bolognese in our house, nourishing, comforting and realistic.
Because food should support family life, not complicate it.
This is just normal food.
No powders, no packets, no “kid food” vs “adult food”.
Slow-cooked pasta bolognese, packed with real ingredients and loads of hidden goodness.
The kind of meal that fills bellies, steadies moods and actually gets eaten 🙌
Simple food. Calm evenings. Clean plates.

This is how I get my kids to eat fruit without a battle.
They make their own breakfast.
Porridge first, then they “decorate” the bowl with fruit and berries.
No pressure. No rules. Just choice.
When kids feel in control, they’re far more likely to try things, especially if it looks pretty and feels like their idea.
It also does a few other helpful things:
• steady energy for the morning
• less sugar crashing later
• hands-on involvement (which picky eaters often need)
Clean Plate Life isn’t about forcing food.
It’s about creating the conditions where good food gets eaten naturally 💚

Our go-to homemade granola 🤍
I make this once and it lasts a few days, easy breakfasts, calmer mornings.
Simple granola recipe:
• Oats
• Nuts & seeds (whatever you’ve got)
• Coconut oil or butter
• Honey
• Dried fruit (I have used raisins and apricots)
• Pinch of salt
• 2 eggs
• Milled flax seed (optional)
Mix well together in a large bowl
Bake until golden, let it cool, smash with a rolling pin (the fun part that kids love) then store in a jar.

This is what care looks like in our house.
Slower food.
Fewer ingredients.
Time to rise.
When life feels loud, I come back to the basics.
Food made with intention.
Meals that feel safe.
Clean Plate Life isn’t about perfection.
It’s about creating calm, one small choice at a time

Most mornings in our house start with… eggs.

Scrambled, boiled, omelette — whatever I can make while yelling “shoes on please!” for the 50th time. 😂

But here’s why…

Eggs keep my kids full and focused.

No sugar crash. No hunger tantrums at 9am.

Just a steady, calm morning (as calm as mornings ever are 😅).

And honestly? When I changed their breakfasts, I saw a huge difference in behaviour, concentration and mood.

Eggs might be simple… but simple works

I always make soup at home, the kids love it and my basic veggie/tomato soup is so versatile I have even used in as a base in pasta sauces for an extra veggie boost.

Good day today though, Fox loved having soup at school and now all the other mums are asking me how I do it!?

It wasn't always like this, this is the result of a lot of hard work but Fox is now symptom free and happy 😊 and that was always the goal

Amelie and Fox have been cooking since they were little, understanding food from the raw ingredients, where it comes from and how to prepare it will help prepare them to eat it. Builds confidence and give kids a sense of pride in what they have made = huge dopamine hit!
