Healthy, convenient meals for kids with Kidfresh! #KFHealthyKids

Do you ever find your­self being crazy busy dur­ing meal times, not want­ing to stop to make din­ner? I had one of those days this week as we were prep­ping for Thanks­giv­ing! Wednes­day was super busy, with time spent shop­ping, cook­ing, and get­ting our house ready to host Thanks­giv­ing. The kitchen was a dis­as­ter and I didn’t want to stop to make some­thing else for din­ner. So, instead of turn­ing to fast food or take out, it was great to just give the boys a Kid­fresh meal! I dis­cov­ered the Kid­fresh meals at Safe­way while doing some Thanks­giv­ing shop­ping (you can see that whole shop­ping trip in my Google+ album here). And, I knew they’d be per­fect for health­ier, con­ve­nient meal options for the kids. I was rather impressed with the nutri­tion facts and ingre­di­ents. And, I espe­cially like the fact that there are veg­etable purees hid­den inside. A win-win! The boys LOVE “noonies” (aka Mac&Cheese), so I grabbed a cou­ple boxes of those and some cheesy que­sadil­las. If you visit the Kid­fresh page on Face­book, you can get a coupon for $1/off an entree, mak­ing them a really afford­able option!

The meals were SO easy to pre­pare! And, right off the bat, I noticed the real cheese and was impressed as com­pared to many processed/frozen options. In the midst of all of my Thanks­giv­ing prep, I just popped the meals in the microwave and a cou­ple of min­utes later my boys were eat­ing din­ner! They both loved their “noonies”. So, I’ll def­i­nitely be keep­ing a few of these on hand for con­ve­nient options!

What are your go-to kid-friendly, con­ve­nient meals?
