Kudos to all the single moms out there.\u00a0 I’ve been getting a taste of\u00a0what life would be\u00a0like as a single mom with two kids and it is tough (HUGE understatement).\u00a0\u00a0 Here’s the detail that I neglected to mention for fear of being judged…I have only been alone with both of my little ones for 3 to 4 hours max, and that short window of time sends me into a tailspin.\u00a0 I’m exhausted just thinking about riding solo with two kids\u00a0for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.<\/p>\n

Tonight was one of those nights.\u00a0\u00a0My husband walked in\u00a0late from work,\u00a0blew a few kisses, then\u00a0walked right\u00a0back out for his CrossFit classes.\u00a0\u00a0 So I had the pleasure of preparing a toddler-friendly dinner with one child on my hip and the other tugging at my yoga pants.\u00a0 My multitasking skills were challenged further trying to feed a ‘picky eater’ while nursing my ‘frequent feeder’.\u00a0\u00a0Thankfully I still had a bit of fuel in my tank to bath at least one of the girls (two would be pushing it), then read a story and sing songs to my toddler with a 3 month old in tow.<\/p>\n

Now the tank is empty.\u00a0 I am writing this post while running on fumes alone.<\/p>\n

My only\u00a0saving grace\u00a0tonight was\u00a0this colourful recipe.\u00a0 It takes less than 5 minutes to prep, has\u00a0a mere\u00a06 ingredients (all of which you can find in your cupboard, fridge or the nearest grocery store).\u00a0\u00a0 It’s perfect for a potluck, picnic, and even your picky eater’s plate.\u00a0\u00a0 It’s a one-stop shop meal with protein, carbohydrates and fat all in one bowl.<\/p>\n
