I have been working at putting together one month of different meals, week by week. Since Rich works late during the week and is so easy to please, the kids are my biggest critics. Trying to find meals that are healthy and kid friendly can be a bit tricky. I have run across some outstanding meal planning websites that have been essential in helping me put together my menus.
Tonight we made Chicken Potato Bowls. Along with Dante's help, preparing this meal was super simple. We made homemade mashed potatoes, baked fresh chicken breast, marinated in Italian dressing, and boiled some mixed veggies.
To serve, you make a bowl out of the potatoes and then fill the bowl with chicken chunks and veggies. It was a big hit with everyone but Isabella, who is an avid veggie hater, unless it is raw green salad. The kids agreed to pose to prove how happy they were with this new dinner idea.
Yes, that is Justus smiling and eating a piece of cooked broccoli. It helped that Dante ate 4 huge pieces and then proceeded to take his shirt off to prove how healthy broccoli was for your muscles. AAHHH, the testosterone.
