I usually post one of my own recipes on Thursdays, but I didn’t have time this week. So I’ve got 12 Kid-Approved Meals from Pinterest for you! Not a bad trade-off, huh?
One of my Facebook readers, Kristina P said she’d love to see “kid-approved meals” as she was tired of the typical chicken nuggets, mac ‘n cheese, etc. So Kristina, this is for you – and the millions of other moms out there who would love some inspiration for new kid-friendly meals.
Now I’ll insert my little “disclaimer” here because we all know what “kid-approved” means, right? “Other people’s kids have approved (my own kids have “approved” of at least two here), but whether yours will? Well…that’s up to them. But maybe you’ll get one or two winners from here, yes?
Okay, okay so I included one mac’ n cheese recipe – it’s my very own homemade recipe that my kids love. Just one.

Thanks for sharing these ideas. This is gonna be helpful when trying to create meals for my 4 year old son.
My son likes beef stew. I only put beef, potatoes and carrots in it and then make sure there’s gravy. It’s a hit every time.
This is great! Anyone can use ways to improve/healthify meals. Thanks
This looks like a great book.
thanks for sharing this
