Are there key ingredients Moms should always have in the pantry?
Her must haves in her pantry are pancake mix, refrigerated biscuits, shredded cheese, pasta, tortilla, fresh produce - just to name a few.

What are the more popular no-cook snacks/meals we can serve our kids?
She suggests sandwiches, fruits dipped in yogurt, deli-meat rolled up with veggies and cheese, and even a bowl of their favorite cereal.

We talked about several brown bag meal ideas kids can really enjoy, the importance of getting kids involved in meal preparation and finally she shares a yummy and easy smoothie recipe. If you have little ones at home this episode is a MUST for you to listen to.
