Default Re: healthy foods for the kids?

Some restaurants have 'fruit cups' (if you HAVE to eat out)

Some kids like salad, mine use BBQ sauce instead of dressing.

Pretty much whatever is healthy for you is fine for a kid (barring choking risks, and generally if they can eat a nut you are safe)

If you often need to eat 'out of the house' try making a calzone, it is like a pizza folded in half, use a rolling pin to roll out the dough (storbought mix, or use the easy recipe I posted somewhere)

But don't think you have to stuff it with pizza stuff (though that is good too) I made chicken 'bites' (mini calzones) last night to share at a party, it was just chicken, cause for some reason I am out of veggies, but I woudl like to have used em!

Beef N brocolii is a family favorite, so is cheese and bacon and green peas.

I know from other posts you are more to the veggies than the carnivour, so go for just veggies..white pizza sauce with spinach sounds good to me.
