10 Fast & Easy Dinner Ideas for Hungry Toddlers & Tired Parents — Recipes from The Kitchn

My youngest just officially left the toddler years for that “threenager” year, but the struggles of feeding a toddler are not too far away from my memory. Toddlers bounce from happy and inquisitive to tired and cranky easily without the capacity to tell us that they are hungry and headed for a meltdown. All of this is to say that after a day, or a week, or even hours of extraordinary emotional highs and lows and generally wrestling a wild, stubborn 2-year-old, you are tired. And you all still need to eat.

Here are 10 of our go-to dinners for the nights when growing up has really worked up your toddler’s appetite and you are too tired to cook an elaborate meal.

Why You Need a Fish Spatula — Even If You Aren’t Cooking Fish — Amazon Deal of the Day

The first time I saw a fish spatula, it was on a friend’s wedding registry. We were just out of college and still on a steady diet of takeout and turkey sandwiches. I rolled my eyes at the idea that anyone who could hardly boil water would need a tool dedicated to only flipping fillets of seafood.

Oh, how wrong I was.

How To Make Hummus from Scratch — Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn

I’m fairly convinced that hummus is some of the best stuff on earth. It might look beige and boring in the bowl, but this blend of soft chickpeas, olive oil, tahini, lemon juice, and garlic creates a dip that is so much more than the sum of its parts. Skip the store-bought stuff — making it yourself is so easy and will be far tastier than just about anything from the deli section.

How Long Do Sippy Cups Last? — Toddlers

I may only have one child — a very rambunctious 4-year-old boy — but somehow, I’ve accumulated a vast collection of sippy cups. My kitchen counter has overflowed with various candy-colored cups with retractable straws, drinking nubs, or silicone leak-free discs; then there was the Thomas the Tank Engine phase, followed by a Paw Patrol period. Now, I’m in my son’s “green” era, when only cups in shades from lime to grass to emerald are acceptable.

The old sippy cups? Most have found their way to the recycling bin when they looked chewed, the decals wore off, or I just got tired of the clutter, but what is the correct benchmark for sippy cup shelf-life? Realizing I had no idea, I asked around.

10 Low-Carb Recipes for the Slow Cooker — Recipes from The Kitchn

While the slow cooker is really everyone’s friend in the kitchen, I’d argue that is extra helpful to those following a low-carb diet. That’s because the appliance is best at braising meat and making soups and stews, all of which are large parts of a low-carb lifestyle. You can toss a brisket into the slow cooker on your way out the door in the morning and be rewarded with not only a comforting dinner when you get home, but also most likely enough leftover shredded meat to enjoy for lunch throughout the week. Here are 10 recipes we love.

Looking for a design-forward spring refresh for your dinnerware? We’ve got a suggestion from a surprising source: Amazon.

While we think of the website as a destination for things we might otherwise pick up at a big-box store, the retailer has been working to quietly change that. Amazon Homemade, an attempt to compete with Etsy, launched in 2015. And more recently, a line of unique, one-of-a-kind dinnerware was just rolled out on another platform: Amazon Launchpad.
