If you are someone who prefers 30 minute (or less) meal preps in the evening, this programmable pressure & multi cooker is your solution!

Instant Pot Sizes

First let’s talk Instant Pot Sizes. For me, this is actually really important. We are a family of seven (with four hungry boys and two pre-teens), so a Instant Pot Ultra Mini is going to be terrible for my family.

What Size Instant Pot Do I Need?

Help! Which Instant Pot is right for me? Figuring out which cooker works best for your family can be tricky and the Instant Pot website is actually very helpful.

The first thing you need to ask yourself is how big an Instant Pot do you need? It is important to know, there are three Instant Pot sizes – Mini, 6 quart and 8 quart. Within each sizing, there are four to eight different styles and features. That means, currently, there are 17 different Instant Pot Sizes and Styles. How do you possibly choose the right one?

Sizes of Instant Pot

Instant Pot Sizes include 3 quart, 6 quart and 8 quart.

3 Quart Mini Instant Pot Size

Preparing food for 1 or 2 people, the 3 quart mini is your size. Ideal for cooking rice or vegetables on the side.

6 Quart Instant Pot Size

The most popular Instant Pot Size is the 6 quart. This pressure cooker big enough to cook meals for a family of 3 to 6 people.

8 Quart Instant Pot Size

This Instant Pot 8 quart is great for large families, parties and gatherings, or weekly meal prep.

Instant Pot Directions

Each of those recipes include time listed directions, however we have the ultimate list of Instant Pot Directions. The directions list all the possible things you could want to cook in your Instant Pot plus Instant Pot cooking times.

Hidden Vegetable Recipes for Picky Eaters

August 2, 2020 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Recipe, Social Media

Hidden Vegetable Recipes for Picky Eaters aka my kids (and your kids!) Hidden veggies in desserts, breads, mac and cheese and more. Enjoy.

Hidden Vegetable Recipes

When introducing food to my babies, I always introduced vegetable puree first. My second child would beg for broccoli growing up. I recall picking her up from her crib one day after nap and she asked me for broccoli and a Popsicle. It was a staple in our home. Somewhere between child three (who is 14 months older than the twins) and child four and five (whoa that was fast), I went wrong. We went from a family of four to a family of seven in a years time. It was quick and I guess my mom award got lost in the “extra” people.

The twins, who are 19 months, and my two and a half year old struggle to eat greens. I make myself feel better by getting all the protein in their diet I can, but man – what did I do wrong? Because I lost my mojo, I had to become a trickster. I was first introduced to hiding veggies in food with this book Deceptively Delicious: Simple Secrets to Get Your Kids Eating Good Food. I decided to accept the challenge and find additional recipes my kids would love.

Introducing tried and true Hidden Vegetable Recipes for Fussy Easters (aka picky eater kid number three, four and five.) Tell me what your “I’m not eating that” picky kids think of these recipes.

Hidden Vegetable Mac and Cheese Recipes

Cheese and pasta. Need I say more? These Hidden Vegetable Mac and Cheese Recipes are hidden everyone’s my toddlers’ favorite foods group – dairy and grains.

Take a look at this mom hack! This Hidden Vegetable Mac and Cheese Recipe is the insanely easy! | It’s What Works for Us (see also our Toddler Hacks and Tips)

Sneak some veggies into your kids meal with this delicious Butternut Squash Mac and Cheese recipe. | My Fussy Eater (and yours too!)

Veggie mac and cheese muffins have 3 vegetables and 3 kinds of cheese, plus a crunchy topping, and are a great way to get kids to eat their vegetables! | Family Food on the Table

Carrots anyone? They are found in this hidden veggie baked mac and cheese. | Mess for Less

If your kids can look past the green (prep them with Green Eggs and Ham), try this Obviously Veggie Green Mac and Cheese. | Weelicious

Hidden Vegetable Breads

Grains. I never had a child (of any age) turn away from bread, thus we added Hidden Vegetable Breads to our recipe binder.

This pear and zucchini bread might become a family favorite even for the older kids. It freezes really well in slices and defrosts awesomely for the lunchbox. | Kidgredients (love this blog name!)

Are you looking for something fun to do with the kids? These Fish Marshmallow Pops are going to do the trick! As a mom of multiple little boys, I can say that we’re always looking for something fun and simple to do and these marshmallow candy pops on sticks are the solution to beloved cake pops.

Fish Marshmallow Pops

Not only is this recipe and craft fun to make, it’s also delicious to eat. My boys love picking up the little candy pieces and putting them into their mouths. I can’t blame them, I often do the same thing when I’m cooking. Tasting is part of making the recipe!

With many children, it’s important to find something we can all do together. Time in our home is precious! I don’t want to spend hours putting a craft together. Do you? Plus, it’s hard to keep the attention span of five children. I love that my older girls can help with this and the younger boys enjoy it too.

I feel as though this craft is great to do after you watch a good Disney movie too! Who would agree with me? “Under the Sea” refers to the movie the Little Mermaid. This movie has ALWAYS been one of my favorite movies! If you’re a Disney fan, I’m sure you’ll also love these Disney inspired Under the Sea Marshmallow Pops!

Taste wise, they are so delicious. Like, you think you’ll be able to only eat one, but you’ll eat many more. If you’re looking for something easy to make with your kiddos, make these! They’re easy, fun, and so delicious!

How to Make Marshmallow Pops

A few simple marshmallow directions…

First, carefully place sucker sticks into each marshmallow.

Melt the candy melts according to package directions. Place in a tall jar so it’ll be easier to dip.

Dip a marshmallow into the chocolate and tap off excess, roll the top into the nerds and place on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Let dry for a few minutes before you place the fish on or they will just slide off. Place 1 to 3 fish on each marshmallow.

Let dry and enjoy this fun treat!

How Long to Marshmallow Pops Last?

Well first, these will be eaten fast. So it’s a silly question. The shelf life of marshmallow pops depends on the best before date and how they are stored.

First, you can see how long it will take for your marshmallows to expire by reading the bag. Since you moistened them and dipped them in chocolate, the shelf life will go down a lot. I suggest storing in an air tight container and eating within the week (if they last that long before sticky fingers get to them.)
