Besides clothing, food is often the basic need of a child that we're quick to subcontract out to corporations. Some of them may have branding and marketing that seem well meaning to us, but those food products are still manufactured in giant facilities and add significantly to our carbon footprints. Beyond that, reading the labels on a lot of these products can be a daunting task, making it difficult to understand exactly what we're putting into our children's bodies. While making your own clothes may be more effort than it's worth, making more of the food in your home from scratch can offer great benefits with minimal additional effort. Below are some simple recipes that will reduce your budget, reduce household waste, and reduce emissions, all while nourishing their bodies, giving them true pleasure around food, and deepening your bond with each other.
