I just realized something as we were preparing for another overnight visit with Sparkle...We don't keep much food in the house (aside from meat in the freezer, frozen veggies, etc).

What are some staples that we should have in the house, snack-wise? We tend to not keep sugary stuff around like cookies or juice because of medical issues and we probably won't start that now, but what are some good healthy snacks to have sitting around? I know I only have a few years before she's a teenager and we're hoping to create good eating habits from the start.

And since I'm on the subject, what are some good recipes that we can cook together? I'll probably end up looking for some kids cookbooks eventually.
