👨👩👧👦 More Than a Snack: Choosing Moments That Matter

(And Cookies You Can Feel Good About)

In a world of rushing, scrolling, and “hold on one sec,” many parents are looking to do something radical: slow down.
Not with big trips or complicated Pinterest crafts—but with something simple, grounding, and meaningful: intentional meals and moments with their kids.

And honestly? That’s where the magic lives.
Not in the perfectly curated lunchbox… but in the messy counters, uneven cookies, sticky fingers, and shared laughter around the table.

🍓 It Starts With a Jar

We created our pistachio butter with nutrition in mind—but we’ve watched it become something so much more. It’s become a secret ingredient for parents who want to bake healthier cookies, pack smarter snacks, and turn five-minute breakfasts into small rituals their kids will remember.

Take our Strawberry Vanilla Pistachio Butter, for example. It’s:

  • Naturally sweet

  • Packed with protein and healthy fats

  • Free of lactose, additives, and weird preservatives
    And best of all—kids LOVE it.

One mom told us she makes Strawberry Pistachio Thumbprint Cookies with her daughter every Friday. Another said her son asks for it on toast, in oatmeal, and (his words, not ours) “on a spoon with a dance.”

🍪 A Cookie That Builds Connection

Want to try something simple this weekend?
Here’s a mini recipe idea:

Strawberry Vanilla Pistachio Cookies

  • 1 cup almond flour

  • ¼ cup Colored Cows Strawberry Vanilla Pistachio Butter

  • 2 tbsp maple syrup or honey

  • ½ tsp baking powder

  • Pinch of salt
    Mix, roll, press, bake at 350°F for 10–12 min.
    Let cool… if you can wait that long.

Let your kid stir. Let them lick the spoon. Let them sprinkle crushed pistachios on top (and probably the floor). That’s the part they’ll remember.

❤️ A New Kind of Nourishment

When we say we care about what’s in our jars, it’s because we care about who they’re feeding.

  • The 6-year-old learning to measure flour.

  • The tired parent trying to add protein to a picky eater’s lunch.

  • The family trying to unplug for 20 minutes and make a snack together.

These aren’t just recipes—they’re rituals. They’re invitations to pause, connect, and be fully present, even if it’s just for one sweet bite.

So here’s to the parents choosing more moments.
The ones who slow down, show up, and spread a little pistachio butter between memories.

You're doing more than feeding them. You're feeding connection. 💚
