Coconut Gummies & Blueberry Gummies!

soooooo I’ve decided to do something about my gut health – nothing extreme but just add goodness back into my diet that will assist my ‘funny tummy’ (& by funny I mean not processing food the way it should & me lacking in energy :))

It’s good to bring the children along for the ride too I reckon so, as you know my theory on encouraging them to eat ‘healthier’ foods is by mimicking – what better way to do this than by making ‘jellies’ in fun shapes!

I’ve sat on the sidelines for a while now & was really excited when I realised how healthy it is for us, how yummy it tasted, how EASY it was to make and how much the children ACTUALLY liked it!!! I have to be honest – the hardest thing was remembering to buy gelatin! 🙂
