Weekdays are easier with prepped meals! Make meal prep a family event on the weekends. Younger children can measure and stir, older kids can chop and dice, and everyone can help with cleanup. Plus, when the kids participate in cooking, they’re more likely to get excited to try new ingredients!
The best part is that all these recipes feature ingredients that earn money for your school! When you link your VIC card to your school as part of Harris Teeter’s Together in Education program, a percentage of your purchase of Harris Teeter brands is donated to your school. And there’s no limit to how much your school can earn!
