None of us will deny that we have a special relationship with food, be it good, bad or indifferent.
However, as parents, it can be quite easy to get lazy and uninventive when it comes to what we serve up everyday.
That got us thinking about food inspiration, and where to find it - the natural conclusion being the beautiful Internet.
We did some digging, and found some of the most amazing food Instagram accounts out there that will inspire you to embrace your inner chef (if and when you have the time).
Breakfast is, without a doubt, the most important meal of the day. However, it also happens to be an easy meal to forget about, or skip out of sheer inconvenience.
Ksenia Avdulova is the social media strategist-slash-speaker-slash-yogi and founder of this amazing food blog, that gives breakfast a whole new meaning.
This Instagram account features gorgeous smoothie bowls that are packed with colour and nutrients, and some of the most delicious looking pancakes we've ever seen.
Ksenia shares all of her recipes online, and none of them are particularly difficult, so what's stopping you?
Food stylist and photographer Adeline Waugh is the wonderful human behind the Vibrant and Pure Instagram account, and the creator of the delicious mermaid toast we fell for last week.
Adeline posts stunningly vibrant food pics, encouraging everyone to use colour in their food - through fruit and vegetables.
Rather than using food colouring, this foodie opts for natural pigments such as beetroot and turmeric to achieve that vibrant colour in her magical mermaid and unicorn toasts.
If these gorgeous snaps don't inspire your cooking, we don't know what will.
