In honor of Mother's Day this Sunday, I'm picking Lorrie's brain on the ever-important topic of raising healthy kids!  She shares how it's possible to "not do picky" in your house as well as a fun activity for older kids who are ready to take some ownership of their diets.  Happy Mother's Day to all our mamas!

Linkables discussed in this episode:
​Madrid EVA Birkenstocks.
A Brief History of USDA Food Guides (includes the old school food pyramid and today's "My Plate" recommendation).

And here is Lorrie's very own chocolate cheesecake recipe!
Crust:
2 cups shredded coconut
Optional (1/4 cup almond meal, almonds or walnuts)
1/4 cup raw cacao powder
scant 1/2 cup dates
     Blend in blender or food process until crumbly, press into the bottom of a pie pan or cheesecake pan. 
Filling:
1 can full fat coconut milk
1/2 cup raw cacao powder
1/2 cup dates
*Double or triple if using cheesecake pan. 
     Blend in a blender until smooth; pour into pan.  Refrigerate until set. 

How are you helping your kids take ownership of a healthy diet?  We'd love to know!  Leave a comment, send us a question, connect with Lorrie here, or find me over on Instagram @ifeelsupernourished.
