First Assignment

Please email or send in your child's favorite lunch or dinner recipe. In hopes of providing better nutrition for your child, I will work with others to find a healthier alternative to what they already enjoy. I am curious to know if they will notice a difference! The deadline for submission will be this upcoming Wednesday, April 14th. Of course, you can add your recipe to this blog! Let's get cookin'!
