If you’re a homeschool mom, you already know—these kids are always hungry! 🍽️ Between lessons, chores, and everyday chaos, it can feel like someone is asking for a snack every five minutes. 

In this episode, I’m joined by Janeen Marino for an honest and funny conversation about what it’s really like keeping your homeschool family fed when cooking feels hard.

We talk about the “second breakfast” phenomenon, why homeschoolers seem to eat nonstop, and how to make feeding your family easier with simple meal ideas and practical kitchen hacks.

From doubling your rice to stretch meals, to grabbing a rotisserie chicken on busy days, to creating easy snack stations your kids can manage themselves—this episode is packed with doable ideas and encouragement.

Janeen and I also dive into what it means to build confidence in the kitchen, even if you weren’t taught how to cook growing up. 

You’ll hear how you can teach your children valuable life skills like meal prep, planning, and gratitude—without turning every meal into a stressful event.

Whether you love cooking or dread dinner time, this episode will remind you that you’re not alone, and that feeding your homeschool family can be simpler, more joyful, and full of grace.
