Health for the


whole family Welcome to Delicious Living’s Kids and Family issue! In addition to easy recipes for a gluten-free Mother’s Day brunch (page 38) and veggie burgers from the grill (page 25),


What inspires me


The Black Bean Burgers on page 25 are moist, flavorful, and perfect served with my favorite crispy indulgence: sweet- potato fries.


Did you know it’s


hard for kids to get enough magnesium from foods? The mineral may improve mood and sleep, in addition to forming strong bones (page 48).


Have you ever cooked with culinary flower extracts (page 17)? Delight a mom in your life with these surprise flavors in sauces and more.


you’ll find great advice for keeping your whole family happy and healthy, from safer sun care (page 52) to sleuthing out possible food intolerances (page 33). As a mom of two—now 8 and 5 years old—I know what a juggling act it is for parents to honor everyone’s needs, including their own. Several of my close friends are new second-time parents, which for me signaled the start of a whole new level of sleep (and self-care) deprivation. As I witness my friends’ transitions, I’m reminded again how important it is for each of us to establish replenishing habits so that we can stay strong and resilient, body and mind, for years to come. I highly recommend a wonderful book called A Natural


Guide to Pregnancy and Postpartum Health (Avery, 2003), coauthored by Delicious Living’s longtime medical editor, Robert Rountree, MD. But self-care isn’t just for moms; dads need it, too. Te advice in our November 2011 story “Manage Sleep Deprivation” is a great place to start: I take adaptogens, avoid coffee, and clear mental chatter by meditating 20 minutes before going to bed. I also find that eating the right breakfast, planning superhealthy 30-minute- or-less dinners, and making time to do nothing keep me, my husband, and our kids thriving despite life’s inevitable ups and downs.
