Why not make a cheats pizza for your lunch or dinner today 🍕 I used Italian flatbreads for the bases and they came out like proper thin and crispy pizzas 🙌🏻 - I can highly recommend them, plus they're so easy! Passata, dried oregano and grated cheddar for the bases, then added different toppings using things that needed eating up from the fridge. All topped with sliced mozzarella and fresh basil...delish ✨ ~ @daddelicious #pizza #cheatspizza #italianflatbread #chef #homemade #homemadepizza #food #foodie #toddler #toddlerfood #blw #buzzfood #foodgawker #tasty #delicious #foodinspo #foodphoto #instadad #foodstagram #instafood #londondad #parenting #londonfood #feedfeed #yum #f52grams #epicurious #familyfoodtribe #daddelicious (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCagljKFgCA/?igshid=vgf23obszjc2

TyrannoTed’s dinosaur cookies 🦖🦕🍪 A genius idea by my eldest, Teddy, to stomp on the cookies instead of thumb-printing them! Why didn’t I think of that! Recipe below: ~ 170g buckwheat flour (wholemeal or plain should be fine too) 90g ground almonds / almond flour 80ml olive oil 125ml maple syrup Marmalade or jam (I used @stdalfourukofficial no added sugar orange and ginger) ~ Preheat oven to 190C/fan 170C and line a baking tray with baking paper. Add all ingredients into a large bowl and mix together to form a dough. Roll tablespoon sized balls with clean hands, place on the baking tray and flatten slightly. Repeat with the remaining dough. I made 18 from my mixture. Get a dinosaur toy (or another animal footprint), press the foot into the centre of each cookie and fill with half a teaspoon of marmalade or jam. Bake for 18-20 mins until golden brown. Allow to cool on a wire rack then get stuck in! ~ @daddelicious #dinosaur #dinosaurcookies #cookies #homemade #baking #biscuits #sahd #dadlife #parent #parentlife #kitchenmode #snacks #kidssnacks #inmykitchen #fussyeaters #chef #food #foodie #familyfood #yum #eeats #feedfeed #instadad #f52grams #buzzfeedfood #instafood #foodshare #foodstagram #familyfoodtribe #daddelicious (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCV9guilEY_/?igshid=190dhb5q5qvja

Chocolate banana nicecream 🍫🍦 Whenever a banana gets too ripe I either a) make banana bread, or b) slice them into coins and freeze them for smoothies or ice cream... So it's perfect timing to use them, given I have a super grumpy teething baby in need of something cold on his gums 👶🏼 All you need is: - 2 frozen sliced bananas (peel and slice them before freezing) - dash of milk, dairy or non dairy - 1 tbsp cacao powder ~ Add everything to a blender or food processor, blitz until you have a something resembling ice cream. Serve immediately as a soft scoop, or freeze again for an hour for a firmer ice cream. So simple, so delicious. ~ #banana #icecream #nicecream #bananaicecream #homemade #teething #teethingbaby #foodie #toddler #toddlerfood #blw #buzzfood #foodgawker #tasty #delicious #foodinspo #foodphoto #instadad #foodstagram #instafood #londondad #parenting #londonfood #feedfeed #yum #f52grams #epicurious #familyfoodtribe #daddelicious (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCLu4ZylVb2/?igshid=m6fgj0vbisag

Veg and cheese quinoa cakes 🥦🥕🧅🧀 I made these with Teddy a couple of days ago and thought I’d share the recipe as they went down well with both toddler and baby! They’re super healthy and packed full of veggie goodness 🌈 ~ 1/2 onion, finely diced 2 carrots, grated 1/2 head of broccoli, finely chopped 2 eggs 150g cheddar, grated 1 large handful frozen peas 200g cooked quinoa ~ Preheat oven to 200C/fan 180C and line a baking sheet with non stick baking paper. Drizzle some olive oil in a pan and sauté the onion, carrot and broccoli for 5 mins. Season with black pepper. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, then stir in the cheese, frozen peas, quinoa, and cooked veg. Using a 1/4 cup or small ramekin dish, scoop out some of the mixture, pack it down, then gently tip on to the baking tray. Repeat with all the mixture. Bake for 10 mins then gently turn and bake for another 5-10 mins. Allow to cool then serve! ~ #rainbow #veggiecakes #eattherainbow #vegcakes #quinoa #homemade #homecooked #eatseasonal #dinner #whatmybabyeats #easymeal #babyledweaning #blw #inmykitchen #fussyeaters #chef #foodie #familyfood #kidsmeals #yum #eeats #feedfeed #instadad #f52grams #buzzfeedfood #instafood #foodshare #foodstagram #familyfoodtribe #daddelicious (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCIlupyFUpO/?igshid=1mrkap8cs1plx

Let's talk about last nights pasta... 🍝 This sauce was a random concoction of left-overs in the fridge - but it was SOOOO good! I love burrata melting away on top, but you could sub for parmesan or any other cheese you have. I saved a portion, cooked some veg and mixed it in to give Raffy his lunch just now. Minus a bit of mess (!) he loved it 🙌🏻 ~ 2 cloves garlic, crushed 5 anchovy fillets, finely chopped 50g sun dried tomatoes, finely chopped 200g cherry tomatoes, halved 500g passata Handful of fresh basil ~ Place a deep non stick pan (one with a lid) on a medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Sauté the garlic, anchovies and sun dried tomatoes for a minute, then add the cherry tomatoes and cook for a few mins with the lid on. Carefully pour in the passata and stir in the fresh basil, then place the lid back on. Lower the heat and simmer for 10-15 mins, stirring occasionally. In the meantime, cook your pasta as per the packet instructions minus a minute. Once cooked, drain the pasta, add it to the sauce pan and stir through. Serve on its own or with some burrata, parmesan etc and extra basil 👌🏻 ~ @daddelicious #pasta #pastatime #pastasauce #homemadesauce #BLW #babyledweaning #healthyfood #eatrealfood #healthykids #dadlife #homemadefood #parenthood #family #babyledfeeding #f52grams #food #foodie #instafood #feedfeed #homemade #foodblogger #foodstagram #eeeeeats #yum #foodies #goodfood #yummy #delicious #daddelicious #homecook (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB22M6UF2hs/?igshid=bm4z5q3onx6f

Kicking off the week with stacks of waffles, thick Greek yogurt, and my homemade blueberry chia jam 💙 If you haven’t made it before then you definitely should - it’s super easy and the kid’s will love it! #cham recipe below: ~ 4 soft Medjool dates, mashed with a fork 250g frozen blueberries 2 tbsp chia seeds ~ Place the mashed dates in a pan with a dash of water on a low heat. Stir to break them down a bit. Add the blueberries and simmer for 5 mins until the berries start to break down. Add a dash more water if needed. Tip in the chia seeds, stir well and simmer for another couple of mins. Crushing the berries with a wooden spoon whilst stirring helps to speed things up. Turn off the heat and allow to cool. You could eat straight away but it’s best to allow the chia seeds to soak up the juice for a few hours to make it more jammy! Store in the fridge in an airtight container for 3-5 days. ~ @daddelicious #blueberry #blueberryjam #chia #jam #chiajam #healthy #healthyfood #refinedsugarfree #breakfast #babyfoodideas #homemadebabyfood #healthybabyfood #dairyfreekids #babyledweaning #blw #weaningideas #babyblogger #food #babyeatingadventure #kidsfood #familyfoodtribe #familyfood #quickrecipe #easyrecipes #homecooking #wellness #eatwell #daddelicious (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBu5zr9lOGv/?igshid=c5vlgm05clbw

These PB filled dates are everything! I make them every single day as a little sweet snack to keep me going 💪🏻They're a great source of magnesium, iron, calcium, potassium, zinc, fibre, and vitamins! Teddy has just cottoned on to them too as his fave new snack but I'm totally down with that 🥜 Literally just slice open some Medjool dates, remove the seed, add a tsp of peanut/cashew/almond butter, then pop in the fridge to firm and keep fresh ✨ You could spruce them up with some grated choc/cacao nibs/freeze dried rasps etc if you want to get a bit fancy pants 😜 (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBVg9wHF2s_/?igshid=1j8kps6ca9qf2
