And I love that these are made with ingredients I recognize, real kale, lentils and rice, so I know this product is a great wholesome snack for my kids (and me!) that I can trust!

Let the recipes of winter warm you with hardy root vegetables, tangy cranberries, robust greens, and citrus fruits. These kid-friendly Winter Produce Recipes from our friends at Cooking Light feature delicious, nutritious fruits and veggies perfect for beating the cold-weather blues and keeping your family healthy all season long.

Roasted Root Vegetables

“This hardy root vegetable enjoys cool climate – it requires frost to convert its starches to sugars and to develop its sweet, nutty flavor. Serving parsnips along side familiar favorites like carrots and potatoes is the perfect way to introduce kids to this versatile veggie.”

Braised Chicken with Kale

“This “superfood” is chock full of vitamins and minerals to help your family defend against cold and flu season. Consider using kale in recipes that call for spinach – its sturdy leaves are particularly excellent when sautéed or added to casseroles. ”

Classic Cranberry Sauce

“Cranberry sauce is a staple at the Thanksgiving dinner table, but this holiday favorite makes the perfect side dish all winter long – especially since cranberries are high in immune-boosting Vitamin C and antioxidants.”
