Super Easy Mac & Cheese
Super Easy Mac & Cheese is perfect to get your kids involved in dinner. One of the things I am passionate about is getting kids interested in cooking. Over the years, I have taught many kids how to make simple meals. They can learn math skills, practice fine-motor coordination, make choices about nutrition, and practice basic cooking techniques. They can learn about different countries and traditions by making foods from around the world. It's also a great way to get families together in the kitchen. If you get kids cooking at an early age, chances are they will continue this good habit as they grow. I happen to collect Macaroni & Cheese recipes. I ran across this one and thought it would be perfect for kids to make. Just make sure you are there to help or supervise the pasta boiling part!

Pasta E Fagioli
Pasta E Fagioli is one of my favorite ways to make pasta. The beauty of this dish is that you can make the "puréed sauce" in the morning and then add the broth and pasta to it later. I love things that you can do ahead. Crusty bread is mandatory for this meal - I mean if you're gonna carb load, do it properly!

Peanut Butter Ramen Noodles
One of the things (which my husband Eric invented) I always made for my kids is something we call peanut butter ramen noodles. By adding peanut butter, it adds some much needed protein. I also like to add some shelled edamame for even more of a protein boost. It's really delicious!

Veal Goulash with Egg Noodles
One of my clients that I personal chef for requested I make this dish. I made this healthy version using non-fat sour cream, no salt, canola oil spray instead of butter and No Yokes Noodles. It got rave reviews. Eric wants me to make this for us soon. I know most people are horrified about using veal, if so, use beef instead.
