last night and as Hassan was giving me the puppy look asking for another piece of chocolate cake - which btw couldn't be any sweeter than him - I felt guilty that i no longer cook enough for my kids.

Between work and talking/playing with them i have no energy nor time to visit the kitchen.

I might say that i am blessed with a devoted mom who pampers us all with her yummy dishes...never the less,
My food will have deliver a certain nutritious message to them while they eat.

 

I had to beat the guilt so i started discussing healthy eating habits with him and suitable options to sweets.

He then went to bed and i stayed up watching and movie while messing some stuff around my room till it was after midnight...i suddenly remembered i had some veal chops in the freezer...I decided to make those chops, grilled and to side them with roasted baby red onions and spiced potato wedges.

Using olive oil, lemon juice, yogurt, mustard, salt and pepper, paprika, soy sauce to marinate the veal.

Grilled them medium...and left them in the fridge for mom to put into the oven the next day just to complete its broiling.

I boiled the potatoes, cut them into wedges....pealed the baby red onions...and tossed them all onto a baking sheet then added olive oil, salt and pepper, paprika and basil...then put them in the fridge for mom to shove into the oven the day after.

I finished and felt great to have made lunch for my kids.

I had to wash...and tried to sleep at 2:00 am but it was hard so i guess it took me over and hour to sleeeeeeeeeeep.

 

Today, I decided to leave the office early and have lunch with my kids...I think I'll make them a fruit smoothie for dessert.

I'll use yogurt, skimmed milk, bananas and some colored fruit...mango Or any kind of berry will be fine + some honey.

 

I believe that such a meal won't only deliver good nutrition but also lots of love...cooking for a loved one...any loved one will feed them love.

 

Isn't that amazing?!

 

Have a nice day :)
