I was losing my edge especially now…

I’ll be the first to admit that when I think about cooking for kids, pesto isn’t the first recipe that comes to mind.

No one likes everything, including myself, a professional food writer and recipe developer—and that’s okay. This is perhaps the most important tidbit of advice to remember when you approach feeding your children.
