Storage, Safety, and Reheating

Storage, Safety, and Reheating

Cool foods quickly, store in shallow containers, and freeze portions you won’t use within a few days. Rotate by date so tonight’s dinner is always the freshest, safest choice.

Picky Eaters and Kid-Friendly Engagement

Offer two vegetable options and two sauces rather than open-ended questions. Kids feel empowered, you stay in control, and dinner becomes a playful assembly instead of a negotiation.

Picky Eaters and Kid-Friendly Engagement

Lay out prepped components—tortillas, beans, chicken, crunchy slaw, and salsa. Kids assemble their own plates, which increases buy-in and reduces pressure to finish unfamiliar foods immediately.

Picky Eaters and Kid-Friendly Engagement

Assign simple prep jobs like washing herbs, snapping green beans, or sprinkling cheese. Pride in participation often leads to braver tasting, and you gain a cheerful sous-chef for dinner duty.
