Customize your plate with the following meals that are sure to please the palates of everyone in the family and leave you stress-free! |
 |  | | Tasty Mixed-Up Mac & Cheese This traditional mac and cheese – made more delicious with beta-carotene-rich carrots – can be transformed into three different dishes for adventurous eaters. Pasta Florentine adds some garlic, spinach and Parmesan cheese; Ham and Cheese has a hint of brown mustard; and Shrimp Parmesan is enhanced with a can of baby shrimp, vitamin-A rich canned pasta sauce, and the scent of extra-virgin olive oil.
 |  | | Family Fiesta Soft Tacos Spice up dinnertime with a Mexican-style meal that’s made with nutrient-rich canned veggies and is chock full of flavor and nutrition. With just a few additional ingredients the tried-and-true taco is transformed into a guacamole-topped tostada, an entrée-grade quesadilla or a rich casserole of enchiladas.
 |  | | Tutti-Frutti Teriyaki Chicken Go on! Take a dip! This chicken entrée offers a selection of sweet and zesty sauces. By adding a variety of canned ingredients, such as nutritious mixed fruit or vitamin-C-rich pineapple, as savory add-on condiments, your kids can have fun with their food by dipping their chicken into a flavor of their choosing.
