lately i have been trying to feed the little man less processed food and more veggies & fruits. of course a lot of the time it is hit and miss. some days we do really good while other’s he may only eat processed sugary crap all the day long.  i figure the saying “shoot for the moon and at least if you miss you land among the stars” or however that goes applies here & to our eating habits.

in my perfect world we’d only eat healthy organic non processed food & i’d have a fresh, healthy warm meal on the table for all three meals, each and every day. my oats would be ground by hand. my house would always smell of freshly baked wheat bread and my homemade fruit roll ups would turn out perfectly every time.

doesn’t perfect world always sound so nice? so wonderful? if only…

it used to be that since i couldn’t have perfect world 24/7, i would just throw in the towel all together. i have a habit of being an all or nothing kind of gal in all areas of my life. i’m learning to ease up a bit though and be okay with less than perfection. something is better than nothing right? some homemade lunches from scratch are better than none. some real true fruit snacks are better than none. some veggies tried are better than none tried. some organic is better than none. etc. etc.

i mentioned earlier this week that i wrote out a meal plan for the rest of this month and i’d like to say we’ve followed it to a perfect “t” so far, but we haven’t. there have been changes, alterations & complete detours all together but i am happy to say that i did follow through on two of the recipes i really wanted to try this week! hooray! two recipes that i’m sure had i had no plan at all, would never have gotten made. especially the way this week has been going.

the recipes are from the book deceptively delicious and i added them to our menu in order to start using up the puree’s that have been sitting in my freezer since september. (oh yeah, in perfect world all my puree’s would have been used immediately and i’d have made another whole new batch by now, in fact i’d have tried every recipe in the book!)

any way, the following recipe we tried this week and actually ended up really enjoying. these muffins are kid & husband approved! so for all of you asking what to do with puree’s…here you go! i’ll post the second recipe next week for you as well. happy baking!

applesauce muffins

topping: 
2/3 cup old fashioned oats (i used quick oats)
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
2 tbls. butter or margarine melted

batter:
1 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 c. old fashioned oats
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 c. unsweetened applesauce
1/2 c. milk (i used skim)
1/2 c. butternut squash or carrot puree (we used carrot this time)
1/2 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 c. vegetable oil
1 large egg.

instructions:
preheat oven to 400 degrees. coat 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or line with paper baking cups (my batter actually ended up making about 16 so maybe coat a few more…)

to make the topping, stir together the oats, sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. stir in the margarine.

to make the batter you’re supposed to mix your dry ingredients first, then add to the wet ingredients, etc. etc. i just started at the top of the list and dumped everything in and then stirred until just barely mixed, as you don’t want to over overmix. the batter should be lumpy.

divide batter into your muffin cups and sprinkle with topping. bake until the topping is lightly browned and toothpick comes out clean when inserted in to the center of the muffin. approx. 18-20 minutes. i baked mine for 18. then place on wire rack to cool & enjoy!
