Delicious & Delectable Egg Muffins With Ham And Cheese: Perfect for Your Child's Picky Taste -

We all know that when it comes to food, kids tend to be very picky. There is this kind of food that they love to eat every day and every night and then on the following week you’re all above it, finding yourself being stocked up in the grocery store. This makes you think that it’s like you’re the go-me-type-of-mom. The next week, your kids turn up their nose when you mention about that certain food they like. As a result, you are left thinking about other food stuff since the time sliced bread was made known.

Have you been in this kind of situation? I’m sure you have. Typically, a situation like this leaves you with nothing but piles of overstocked food items in your refrigerator, staring at them as you wonder about ways on how you use them. Such kind of situation also makes you feel desperate. What other kind of food are you thinking about giving to your children – a type of food that they won’t dare to junk but munch them up to the last measure of it?

I know someone who has gone back to her yogurt-eating tendencies. A few months ago, this friend of mine ate so much yogurt I even thought of her turning into yogurt. Then suddenly she came into a stop and wanted nothing to do with her favorite. I realized, this might be a seasonal love at her end. But one thing is for sure: the stock of yogurt this girl had in refrigerator is soon to get spoiled because no one in their home is eating yogurt. It’s absolutely a waste of money, right?

There are times though that I also turn into a bit of a kid as I usually find myself stuck on certain kinds of foods especially those that have been made using a pellet smoker. I love smoked foods, indeed. Surprisingly, I have this new obsession on muffins and this time, I decided to enhance the traditional muffin into something that kids and even adults will surely love.

Seriously, this is something amazing and it’s mind-blowing. I am quite sure that you have already seen many muffin recipes on the internet and I was quite hesitant to post my own version, thinking that they have been done already. This time, I have finally realized posting them so that you may enjoy this authentic muffin recipe that you can prepare for your kids at home.

For those moms out there who haven’t tried reinventing their muffin recipe or haven’t made any muffins in their life, here’s something that you should try – something that will definitely capture the gustatory senses of your kids and the whole family.
