Feeding a family can be tricky, especially if you’ve got finicky eaters on your hands. How can you ensure that even the choosiest children get the nutrition they need? Just use a few Prego coupons and these clever tips to create meals so scrumptious no one would every guess they’re also healthy!
Plan your plates. Your family will eat better and you’ll be more efficient if you take an hour or two each weekend to plan the family’s meals for the coming week. Create dinner menus and base a shopping list around the meals you plan to serve, then shop for all the ingredients you’ll need to get thorough the week at once. You’ll save time and energy wasted when you have to throw meals together at the last minute, which often entails hurried grocery runs.
Go Sicilian! Potatoes are a kid’s favorite veggie, and you can turn them into a quick and scrumptious supper. Just cook baking potatoes in the microwave and top each one with half a cup of pasta sauce, cooked veggies, and sprinkle with mozzarella. In less than five minutes you’ll have a tasty, wholesome Italian take on the classic baked potato.
Do double duty. Next time you bake your favorite recipe, double it! Freeze the extra in individual portions, which are great to have on hand when you don’t have the time to cook or when everyone is too busy to sit down together for dinner.
Raise the bar. The pasta bar, that is! A pasta bar is a fun, easy meal for family dinner and even bigger get togethers. Kids love assembling their own meals (and adults like it, too!). Boil a couple of different types of pasta, heat up an array of different frozen veggies, put out a couple of types of protein (cooked meatballs and grilled chicken are a great way to round out the meal), and serve with a variety of sauces and cheeses. No two dishes will be alike, but everyone will be happy and well-fed by the night’s end.
