Babycakes' Lunch + {Sunrise Citrus Juice}

Happy Saturday, y'all!  Yesterday a couple of things dawned on me while I was making Babycakes' lunch:       1) WOW, it sure was beautiful and colorful. 2) My girl is growing up soooooooooo fast! Remember when she was just a little baby? 3) Babycakes likes eating what I eat --- she's like a little mini-me :)   and 4) I'd love to start a new blog feature where I highlight one or two of her lunches each week to give you all some good ideas on what to feed your own kids (or yourself!)

Babycakes' Lunch(es):

1) Ham & Provolone roll-ups with blackberries and pistachio nuts. She literally ate every bite. #growinggirl

2) Leftover Golden Meatloaf (made with sweet potatoes instead of beets), mashed potatoes, and blueberries.

And speaking of Babycakes' eating habits, the other day when I was photographing the new Sunrise Citrus Juice, someone couldn't keep her hands off my blog props - ie. round carrot slices and grapefruit! It was too cute not to photograph! I love her sweet face, her smile, and her desire to munch on carrots :)

Introducing {Sunrise Citrus Juice}

Bursting with Vitamin C and beta-carotene, as well as Vitamins A & K and even copper, this juice delivers a heavy nutritional punch.  It features 2 grapefruit plus: carrots, pears, and bell pepper.

It was refreshing and bright, with a bit of "spice" from the bell pepper. This juice really grew on me, and even Babycakes' loved it!!  I will definitely be making this one regularly.

You just can't buy juice this healthy, veggie-packed, and delicious at a store.

Hi!!
I think your idea of showing babycakes lunches is a wonderful idea!!

Do you have to have a juicer to make this work? Could I do it in the blender and eat the pulp (guess I'd have to seed the items, too, right?)
I gave away a couple of juicers over the years as I absolutely hated trying to clean them!! Do you have one you recommend?

I would eat that lunch you created for her, and I can always use good lunch ideas, working from home I can have the tendency to fridge feast and not plan anything so having your ideas would be really helpful to avoid the binge fest at lunch time, juice sounds yummy to, I just wish I had a bell pepper so I could try it this weekend, I have the other fixing in fact just bought more kale for some mean greens this week

Help! My husband & I went to a lovely little restaurant today called Luna's Living Kitchen, located in Charlotte, NC. We enjoyed a delicious meal followed by some "Lemon Bites", which we purchased on our way out. Their ingredients are: Almond flour, coconut, palm sugar, dates, coconut oil and spices. These Lemon Bites are SO delicious! Have you ever heard of them? Do you have a recipe for them? Or would you be willing to create the recipe for them? They are SO good and I don't want to pay $3.75 for two little bites. I'd like to make them at home for my family. Can you help?

I made this, this morning however I did not have the red pepper, I did have 2 strawberries and about 6 blackberries, so I made a 1/2 recipe with those substitutions, probably not as sweet as original (will buy peppers this week) but it was still good, who would have ever though Grapefruit and pears would meld together YUM

I would LOVE if you did a weekly feature on the meals you are making for daughter. I'm always looking for new lunches to make for my two year old son :)

I don't have a juicer, so decided to have a go with my blender. It was fab! I slightly steamed the carrots before putting them in and used the water from steaming to add liquid to my blender. One day I will have a juicer, but until then, the blender works a treat.
