Making Life Better

05.26.2009 by Girl on Fire // Leave a Comment

makinglifebetterMake weekly cooking a pleasure instead of a chore by adding some dinner-tainment to the meal!  Coming up with a family-friendly meal every night can be a challenge when you are the one always doing the cooking.  I sure could use some help on some great new ideas.  Making Life Better has stepped up to help us out by creating recipe demo videos with Jennifer Bushman the “Kitchen Coach”.

These videos offer recipe demonstrations and tips that you can watch even while you are cooking.  Quick and Tasty recipes using high quality convenient foods that are affordable.

Check out these great ideas!

Spend less time in the kitchen, and more time with your family with this easy as “pie” classic: Upside-Down Chicken Pot Pie. With a few simple ingredients, such as frozen veggies, refrigerated biscuits and Knorr Sides. (Check out Jennifer Bushman’s Game Night Meal Ideas with the Kitchen Coach video for a step-by-step demonstration of this meal that will satisfy even the pickiest eaters!)

Set up the couch and chairs in your family living room to create a “home theatre” and enjoy pizza meat loaf, while watching your favorite family flicks. For a new twist on a comfort food favorite. Prepare a perfectly-seasoned Pizza Meat Loaf in no time with go-to ingredients like Lipton Recipe Secrets Onion Soup Mix and Ragú Pasta Sauce.

Spread a blanket in the living room and treat the family to an at-home dinner picnic. Prepare simple sandwiches like delicious Avocado Tuna Melts. Try using Hellmann’s Light Mayonnaise, which has the great taste, but half the calories and fat of Hellmann’s Real mayonnaise. Or, when you’re on-the-run, spread out the sandwich fixins’ so the family can make their own grab ‘n’ go dinner.

For a quick and fun twist on dinner, create a baked potato bar stocked with savory toppings. Feature spud toppers, such as shredded cheddar cheese and steamed broccoli, for delicious, added flavor. Add Shedd’s Spread Country Crock Calcium plus Vitamin D for added nutritional benefits for growing kids. For a no fuss lunch, use the leftover toppings as the base for a grab ‘n’ go wrap the next day.

For a sweet meal ending, prepare a delicious dessert like a Bananas Foster Sundae, made with Breyers All Natural Vanilla ice cream.
