Bernice first started Yummy Tummy Cooking when her son was 2 years old. After being a little disappointed and down right scared at times (meat sticks in a jar…need I say more) with the food selection at the supermarket, she started making her children’s meals at home. Most weekends you can find her in the kitchen, supermarket or local farmers markets. Bernice’s philosophy to what she feeds her family is simple – try to buy local and organic. She has a bachelor’s degree in chemistry; if she has to refer to her degree to decipher the ingredients, she doesn’t buy it. If she can’t read it, they don’t eat it….that simple!

Chicken Salad Ranch Roll Ups
I love recipes where I can sneak in healthy stuff that my kids would otherwise never eat. I add kale to a variety of meals such as sandwiches, soups and salads. Since kale is high in vitamins, calcium and iron – it’s the perfect vegetable. You can sauté kale with olive oil and garlic and [...]
Chocolate-Chocolate Chip Cookies
I love baking homemade cookies. I decided to take my original chocolate chip cookie recipe and kick it up a few chocolate notches and add cocoa powder to make chocolate-chocolate chip cookies. I have to admit this was my 6 year olds idea for our chocolate theme this month. He would eat everything chocolate if [...]
Chocolate Covered Pretzels
In keeping with the chocolate theme for this month I made chocolate covered pretzels. In my opinion the perfect snack is both salty and sweet.

Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup
