I may not have any children of my own, but after almost ten years working as a babysitter and nanny throughout high school and college I know a thing or two about what kids like to eat. Chicken fingers, french fries, ice cream and cookies may seem out of reach on the paleo diet, but they aren’t. The key to is finding those foods that your kids love to eat, and swapping them out for a healthier version. For example, these home made waffles are a great alternative to the frozen Eggos most kids know and love.
Below I have compiled 101 kid friendly paleo recipes that are sure to please even the pickiest of eaters! What are you waiting for? You now have everything you need to whip up a healthy, kid approved, paleo dinner!
