I was trying to find ways to incorporate whole grains into the boys’ diets. They went through a phase where all they wanted to eat were sweet fruits. A fond memory I have growing up was to go to either Bob Evans or a Cracker Barrel restaurant for breakfast, and I loved eating an endless supply of bread and the jellies they provide at the table! I wanted my boys to enjoy a breakfast food that was so nostalgic for me and yet so easy to prepare. This has become one of their favorite parts of breakfast! I know this seems so basic, but that is kind of the point. I promise you, strawberries are so sweet, your children will never miss the added sugar!
