The new school year is on the horizon – which means a new year of packing lunches and snacks that provide our students with the nutrition and energy they need that they will actually eat. This can feel like a never-ending, uphill battle, but fear not – we’ve got some creative ideas and tips to freshen up that lunch bag!
It’s almost that time again. School, work, extracurriculars, make dinner, eat dinner, homework, bedtime – repeat!
It often feels like you don’t even have time to breathe, let alone plan a meal, buy the groceries, prep, cook, serve, and eat it. With just 30 minutes between fridge and table, busy parents can still serve up nourishment without stress, but it takes a bit of planning.
Charcuterie boards are still holding people’s attention and staying on the “hot” list! So much so that there have been a number of creative variations on the charcuterie board. There are dessert boards, candy boards, breakfast, and even vegan boards! So why not a taco board, probably the simplest of them all!
A taco board is a creative and interactive way to serve tacos, especially for a group or party setting. It’s a fun and visually appealing presentation that allows your guests to customize their own tacos to their liking.
Feel the chill in the air? Winter is definitely upon us and it’s a long haul, so what better way to enjoy those “chili” nights than with chili (See what I did there?). This is the perfect food for large gatherings over the holiday season because it’s easy, everybody likes it, and your guests can customize it to their tastes. Here is how to create a chili buffet that is sure to warm everyone’s heart!
